      @luisrafael I don't click update. I try to test it in fresh installed 2.4.4 version and restore config.xml. You think this way is not safe too?

        No, is not safe !

        Think twice if you go update.

        If you follow best practices, it is safe. Do not spread FUD.

          Ok, I try again, I choose Package Manager to restore, I don't click Reinstall packages button. It says: The configuration are has been restored. The firewall may need to be rebooted. But nothing happens next. Shall I have to wait something to happen or it will reboot itself?

          It should reboot on its own and then reinstall packages after the reboot. From the config history it looks like maybe it already did?

          Are all of your settings present? If so, it is probably fine, but you might reboot it manually anyhow. If not, then start a new thread and we can investigate it separately.

            It didn't reboot. Installed packages appeared in menu, but when I click one of them, it says:

              If you have a fresh installation 2.4.4 maybe you don't have problem with the packages.

              I update 2.4.3 to 2.4.4 ... and squid package didn't work. Now i update freeradius3 and i have the "some" package not work.

              Is it stable for me ?

              thanks
