With all due respect, Anthony, it took me soooo long to diagnose this problem that I just don't have any interest in going back. I didn't ask for this software, but Dell gave it to me anyway, and it took me hours to figure out the problem...a gigantic waste of time I would have avoided had an "old version" of software not been distributed. The only reason I found it was because of a single post on the Internet of someone else who had the same issue. On top of that, the reports on slow network speeds gives me every reason to avoid it. I absolutely admit to being biased based on my experience, but you've broken trust. My experience is: disable it and things work. Enable it and they don't. So I'm going to keep it turned off, and have suggested the same to my colleagues. Once I see people singing its praises, I may return. But in the meantime, I can't afford to take Smartbyte's word for it.
I had a recent experience with my new dell laptop that I wanted to share to save others the pain. I installed Office 2019 and on my wired connection my emails were connecting and up/downloading without a problem. Then I moved rooms and connected to wireless. Emails stopped flowing and I received the error "0x800ccc0f". Emails worked fine on my phone on wireless and the wireless was assigned to the same firewall profile as my wired adapter. I pulled my hair out for a while before I remembered all the additional software Dell had loaded on my system. I disabled everything that wasn't Microsoft and long story short ... it was Rivet SmartBytes stopping my email. Re-starting only that service stopped my email again. I have now uninstalled it but wonder why Dell install it if it causes these kinds of issues. I hope this saves someone else some time as all other sites I found on this error said check your firewall. I didnt think SmartBytes was firewall software so it took me a bit to get there.
