    I have beta updates enabled but am not receiving this CU when checking for updates.

    Edit: Never mind. I just got it.

    They really need to get on to this as a priority.

    I have noticed this before ...

    I do a manual check for update, and it updates.
    Then a second one and it updates again, this time requiring the restart.

    Maybe the first one is definitions only, the second the component package.
    Will need to monitor more closely next time.

    Yes, I see the same thing here. More noticeable if MB hasn't been run for a while.

    Can confirm it just happened also on my second machine.

    Same here. Whenever I ask for an update it always updates.

    What I meant is, it always takes a number of retries for the component package.

    Previously I had assumed the first update was it, without checking the 'About'.

    Regarding MBAM requiring a restart, sometimes the restart is forced, ie it reboots the computer in ten minutes. Do you see that on your system? I've gotten into the habit of NOT checking for updates until a reboot is convenient in case MBAM doesn't give me a choice.

    Hi @Victek, no I am just talking of a restart of MBAM, not Windows - have never experienced that, with component package updates at least.
    Maybe with a version change, I can't remember ...

    My issue is probably just related to load balancing on their servers.

    I've just updated MBAM from 4.1.0 to 4.1.2, it needed to restart MBAM, not reboot the computer. Still, a forced restart of MBAM could also be undesirable, as that will interrupt protection.
