Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Updates

Hi 1PW,

I was using Windows v4.5.21.231 - CU 1.0.1890. Malwarebytes Support tool was v1.8.7.918.

Thank you as always for passing on our feedback.

Cheers!

Edit: It should not matter, but in case it does, I had MB set not to start with Windows.

Thanks.

I haven’t seen a post about v5 updates after the initial one.

Don’t they update that beta?

 

Hello @XIII

Thank you for your interest! Yes - the MB5 early beta does get updated.

Just after MB5's early preview period ended, some of us asked that the now early beta release changes be documented for public consumption, and the program manager has agreed. When we see that documentation, I will post them here.

At this time, anyone is now free to try the MB5 early Beta for themselves without requesting registration.

Cheers

Hello @XIII:

Please accept the volunteer member's sincere apologies for the serious lack of information.

In the last day or two, MB5/MB5+ seems to have been updated to 5.0.5.51-1.0.920-1.0.657XX

We volunteers will continue asking for the old/more informative style of official beta notifications, though.

The Malwarebytes teams, developing the new MB5/MB5+ products, have an immense task before them. But too, I am convinced that more and talented volunteer beta testers could contribute so much.

MB5/MB5+ Beta Download: https://downloads.malwarebytes.com/file/mb5_win_preview Always, please verify the integrity of this large offline installer file.

Please carefully study and understand the beta installation process. Particularly if you are actively using/running other Malwarebytes' paid/licensed products now. e.g., Malwarebytes Privacy VPN and any edition/version of Malwarebytes for Windows.

Hi @1PW
I can't see this information in MBAM Forum. The last comment that I can see.

 

It shows correctly now: https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/281762-malwarebytes-45/page/2/#comment-1556190 same link that @1PW posted.

 

Hello @Libraman:

Please let us know if all is okay with that link for you.

According to staff, yesterday's deployment needed to be double-checked. All is now re-enabled.

Thank you.

 

Hi @Triple Helix , @1PW

Perfect, thanks a lot.
