Malwarebytes stopped opening, and won't uninstall, after the Windows 10 update download on 7/14/17. I had used Disk Cleanup about that time, and noticed GB's to be cleared (Old files from Windows, I think?) I usually only see MB's to be cleared, and since my PC only has 232 GB's of space, I run the cleaner almost every day. I never see that much to clear. It didn't surprise me because my used space on C had also jumped considerably only recently. I have very few pictures, no music, and only one installed game 'Bejeweled.' I had no idea why used space had increased so much, so I cleaned suggested items. Did I delete something important? What is 'MBAM 3.0.6' which apparently is no longer there and seems to be necessary.

Malwarebytes won't uninstall, either, & the latest version won't install over it. My PC is in continual 'Uninstall' mode which only stops/clears when I completely turn the PC off, not just Restart.
I do not have WiFi - my PC is hardwired directly to the internet through a modem from my cable company. I do not have a tablet, smartphone or anything of that nature, if that makes a difference.
I'm hoping this is an easily fixed Microsoft problem due to the update..?
Please be very specific about what programs, areas to access for a possible solution, because I'm not very tech savvy.
And I did run the troubleshooter from the Control Panel, which couldn't fix the problem - it said something about 'MBAM' again, and started to try to uninstall, then tried to restart the PC when I clicked 'Restart Anyway' but the Uninstall Malwarebytes evidently stopped.

Thank you!

The icon is gone again this morning when I turned my computer back on. This is so frustrating. I think the reason it was in my System Tray yesterday is because it had an orange exclamation point on the icon and I got a window asking me to turn the virus protection on. Also, I had already done the steps you asked me to do, several times just to check, about going into settings and selecting which icons appear on the taskbar. The Malwarebytes tray is on, and always has been. Turning it off and on again doesn't help. Any more suggestions? I need Microsoft to give me an update to fix this problem that they screwed up with whatever update they did.Try going into Malwarebytes settings and on the application page scroll down to action center settings and put a check in the setting never register with windows action center ,restart the computer .If this does not work you can go to the next page in settings ,under protection scroll down to delay real time protection when malwarebytes starts ,toggle on and delay it for 90 seconds. Be sure to check for any updates for malwarebytes. Restart and see if the problem is fixed. Also Turn off Defenders controlled folder access. If none above work go to the malwarebytes forum.

i have Windows 10 as the OS on my desktop computer. i purchase Malwarebytes Premium 3.0 AND Emsisoft Anti-Malware to keep me as safe as possible. i have been paying for and using both for a couple of years simultaneously and without any problems, and i intend to continue doing so.
a couple days ago, i signed on to see my Malwarebytes real-time protection had been disabled. i tried to do a 'fix', following instructions on their blog, but nothing worked. so i sent in a request for assistance and have yet to hear back. Advanced systemcare 10.3 key 2019.
Malwarebytes Has Stopped Working Windows 7
then yesterday on the Bleeping Computer news page, i read an article that there is a new Windows 10 'controlled folder access' anti-ransomware feature that was uploaded to my computer with the Fall Creator's Update a couple days ago. hmmm, coincidence? i think not.
so here's my thinking. the new Microsoft controlled folder access is disabling the real-time protection from Malwarebytes. maybe it's a turf-war for my business--i don't know. but i have been happy with malwarebytes and Emsisoft, and want to continue being a satisfied paying customer.
Malwarebytes Has Stopped Working Windows 10 7
am i off-base here? do i need to somehow disable the new Microsoft feature to re-enable my Malwarebytes protection? and in doing so, am i going to muck up something else?
i am a rather unsophisticated computer user, and i would appreciate any thoughts or directions from this community.
thanks!
