Changes in the products or product versions from software providers can change the list of updaters you need.
Carbon Black App Control tracks changes to the updaters for supported products and the arrival of new products that have their own updaters. When you install a new version of Carbon Black App Control, the updater lists are modified to reflect these changes. However, you might need to have the updater list refreshed between releases.
By allowing Carbon Black File Reputation to maintain the updaters, you can get new and modified versions as soon as they become available. Enabling Carbon Black File Reputation updates also means that obsolete updaters are deleted from the updater list. This feature is enabled by default if you have Carbon Black File Reputation enabled.
