We migrated from Forticlient 7.2.13 to 7.4.4. ESXi VM appliance.
I recently noticed that the Forticlient Endpoint Protected Process Service on our servers is set to automatic, but hasn't started.
The service is started on our Windows 10/11 workstations.
The SSL/IPSec VPN feature isn't installed on the servers.
This was also the case in the previous version, but then the Forticlient Endpoint Protected Process Service was started.
When I start the service manually on the servers, I get the following message:
Forticlient 7.4.4 seems to be working properly on the servers, even though this service isn't started.
What is the function of this service, and does it need to be started?
