    Does Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO work fully in a limited user account? Like the scheduled scans and updates even ? Asking because I can't be sure. I know the program itself does though.

    I had to use SuRun to launch MBAM as an administrator or else the updater would fail due to write permission errors.

    MBAM Pro. I suppose I could just grant my limited account write permissions to the folder MBAM was trying to write to, but I've stopped running it real-time on my system.

    Ok. I don't think you have to do that. Got this response on the Malwarebyte's forum.

    Makes sense
