Hello there,
we have the FortiClient with FortiClient Enterprise Manager in use. I am new to FortClient and asked me, how can I work with the quarantaine files? In the EWS I couldn't see an option for that and on the client I can't delete the files. Is the a main configuration for that, or I am blind to see?
FortiClient 5.4.2.0860
FortiClient EMS 1.0.1.0077 Thanks.
Regards, Rolf
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Rolf,
There is no way you can manage quarantined files via the EMS, everything has to be done manually on each client.
I have brought this up, and they say central quarantine is on the roadmap for EMS...

Hi Rolf,
You probably need to go in under File -> Settings, and in the lower part of the screen, you´ll see a padlock, click on it and enter your password (if you have locked the settings with a password), then you can go to quarantine and remove the files.
It´s a very strange way of doing this, I hope they will change it.

In the EMS you´ll find it under the profile and then System Settings, on the top of the page. "Password Lock Configuration"
After that you do this:
1. Disconnect from EMS (Compliance Tab -> "Click to disconnect"
2. File -> Settings
3. Click on padlock, unlock with password
4. Close Settings
5. Go to quarantine, and the buttons should be clickable again.

ah, you probably have the "Disable Unregister" checked in your profile, in System Settings, go down to the bottom and you see a checkbox with "Disable Unregister"

The Disconnect isn't available. When I deregister the Client, then it is avalable. Is this the correct way, or can I set this up?
On the Profile -> System Settings > there is a password defined for "Password Lock Configuration".

Just for EMS USers, with 6.0.x the Quarantine would be handled in the EMS Menü Quarantine Management. :)
Very good, hope there will be more options in the future :) .
