Is a Windows 8 compatible version of SEP installer available?
Created: 27 Nov 2012 | 3 comments
We get the following error when trying to install SEP on new Windows 8 laptops:
Symantec Endpoint Protection has detected that there are pending system changes that require a system reboot. Please reboot the system and rerun the installation.
Rebooting doesn't solve the problem.
Is there a Windows 8 compatible version of SEP installer? If so, how can we get it?

SEP 12.1 RU2 is the first version to support WIndows 8. Although, I do have RU1 running on WIndows 8 so it will install, it's just not supported.
