Trend Micro must be reinstalled every three weeks or won't update

The program downloads the update and then starts to install. Eventually it returns the message connect to internet to update.

You then after all the support steps, have to reinstall the program, which then runs for about 3 weeks before you have to do it all over again

Yes, I follow all the suggested solutions. The last step is to reinstall. After the reinstall it works normally again.

But after it works again, the update won't work again after three weeks? Is that correct?

If yes, can you try monitoring what happens within the duration of the three weeks where it works fine? If it keeps happening, then there should be some sort of pattern or program that could be corrupting the Trend Micro program to a point where it consistently malfunctions.

Also, the product should check for updates automatically every three hours. If you haven't used the computer in a span of three days, it will show you an error message similar to what you see. It is possible that this is why you get the error. Do you leave the computer unused for 3 days or more?
