Windows

1. Open an elevated command prompt on the Nessus Scanner.

2. Stop Nessus.

   net stop "Tenable Nessus"

3. Reset Nessus.

   C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessuscli fix --reset

4. Re-register Nessus.

   C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessuscli fetch --register <ACTIVATION_CODE>

   If this fails:

   • Set the Proxy settings (OPTIONAL):

     C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessuscli fix --secure --set proxy=<IP or Hostname of Proxy>
     C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessuscli fix --secure --set proxy_port=<Port of Proxy>
     C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessuscli fix --secure --set proxy_username=<Username of Proxy>
     C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessuscli fix --secure --set proxy_password=<Password of Proxy>

   • Reset the Activation Code on Tenable Community.

5. Rebuild the plugin database.

   C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessusd -R

6. Start Nessus.

   net start "Tenable Nessus"

These can also optionally be run after the register command, to be thorough:

• To verify the registration took:

  C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessuscli fetch --check

• To check for any updates:

  C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\nessuscli update --all
