what exactly is Killswitch?

I am using Version 5.0.2.39 and I really like the way you integrated Malwarebytes-Notifications in Windows.
- This looks great.
Will I get a notification or a warning if Malwarebytes finds a trojan even if Windows 10 notifications are disabled?

9 minutes ago, Firefox said:
It also did not turn my VPN feature back on, so it defaulted to OFF (however my selected city was still there) I was not able to turn it back ON either. Even after a restart.
Is it because the License Key was for the Preview Build and not the BETA?
I just tried it - my Preview Key works with the Beta and I can use the VPN. Did you restart Malwarebytes?
Reading about your installation, it seems like, that it was not intended to install this new Version the way you did it... let´s someone from staff answer that.

I did download it from the link in the mail i got in August...

by the way,
Malwarebytes 5 works with my regular subscription as well 👍
and, what i really like: - that you ask for the email verification code in Malwarebytes - good job!

I installed Version 5.0.2.39 and l really like what I see (after using Bitdefender and Malwarebytes 4.x for a while).
Maybe it would be little bit more "easy" if you can get a mouse reaction in the yellow field (i made it look yellow). What I mean is, use the whole space for a mouse click reaction.
People might click on it and nothing happens... but the cursor reacts the same, like above and below the yellow field.

An option to save/restore user settings. May be useful in case of re-install, or move licence to a new PC.
let me add,
it would be very useful to save your Exclusions.

Ok thought so, so then your issue was that you weren't getting a "Blocked" notification, correct?
yes
(in the Browser, and no pop up)

As for why vlc.de was blocked, I'll let someone else answer that, as I do not have an answer for that.
To block vlc.de is ok, because if you download vlc here you will get Adware or something like that.

right now, Malwarebytes itself does not block
vlc.de
anymore... ???
after a reboot Malwarebytes blocks it again.
Last night I did a clean install and maybe something went wrong...?

if i visit
vlc.de
with Firefox,
uBlock blocked it - i allowed it ...
Browser Guard blocked it - i allowed it ...
and then Firefox showed me: Fehlercode: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG (this connection is not safe)
Malwarebytes shows me in the Notification Section that something happend... but does not show me anything in Firefox.
If I use Chrome with no extensions installed, the "same" happens: ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
There is no Browser, or anything else in play mode.
solution:
if i turn of "Informational pop ups in windows notification area" than - Firefox and Chrome show me that Malwarebytes is blocking vlc.de
Is this the way you want it?
by the way, there was no "website blocked" pop up from Malwarebytes

If you guy´s ever feel it would be time to have a german speaking forum - let me know, I will support it.
In my opinion it would be enough to have just a windows/android/mac section.
The it-guys that use Malwarebytes speak english anyways, it´s just for people who are not that good with the english language.

and everything was fine! 👍👍

I personally think this behaviour will cause confusion.
When a user opens up Malwarebytes via the tray icon, it is sometimes slow to respond and users will have the habit of clicking the tray icon twice particularly on slower end PCs. That will cause the UI to not open.
Majority of users will close Malwarebytes with 'X' or closing the Program via the Taskbar so it could cause issues.
I think the same.
(thank´s for restoring my world...) -> use it for your advertising campain:
if it is too fast for your eyes to see than you are not too weak.
Even if you blink your eyes - we protect you.
Malware never sleeps, and neither do we.

I noticed when i click on the Malwarebytes tray icon in the taskbar more then twice it will close the "UI" this did not happen in version 4.0. Just wondering if this is normal behavior or potentially a bug.
If i were a Malwarebytes-Angel, i would say: "it´s just too fast for your eyes" 😇😇
This behavoir happens to me, when i click twice.
If they are too fast (for your eyes to follow), you are too weak (too use it). 😉 (Maybe Malwarebytes cooperates with Fishermen´s friend? 🤔)

From my understanding, the UI closing is expected behavior. It is intentionally closing the UI, because you are starting a "Play mode" application (usually would be a game). It is not quitting Malwarebytes, it's still running in the tray.
Closing the UI is nothing i would expect in this moment, UI is no pop up or anything like it.
I would rather expect that i close my Antivirus...

(5.0.1.24)
If i have Firefox opend and add Firefox to play mode, than Malwarebytes closes itself.
How:
open Firefox, (went to youtube.com), add Firefox to play mode (at this time nothing else was added for play mode) and choose Firefox with a left click - Malwarebytes closes itself
- this happens only for the first time, you add Firefox to play mode,
to reproduce this: delete Firefox from play mode and restart Malwarebytes

Thanks @FetzBox22 for the feedback. I have a question, you said you reverted to 5.0.0.19 because it felt more stable. Do you have any specific example on what wasn't stable on 5.0.1.24?
right now (after two reboots), it feels the same like 5.0.0.19

Hi guy´s,
i went back to 5.0.0.19 - because, this Version felt more stable to me.
Now I got the 5.0.1.24 without having Beta Updates enabled ... was this intended?
(The update from 5.0.0.19 to 5.0.1.24 was not smooth at all: without a reboot, it felt like Malwarebytes on alcohol. Now it´s fine.)
-
- buhhh, I have never seen that before... (i know, it´s a beta) - this beta build felt scary to me...
what happend?
After installing Malwarebytes - the language went to german,
but because the translation is still missing a few points, I decided to go back to english.
After switching to english - I got Malwarebytes in "genglish" - most of it, the security advisor "spoke" german and english - everything felt kind of mixed up.
Even if the headline was in english, the explanation was in german.
After wondering what´s going on, Malwarebytes suddenly disapperaed.
The icon in the task bar was gone ... I opend the task manager and I was not sure if Malwarebytes is still there or not.
After a short while, Malwarebytes came back - and now it´s proper english.
This behavior only happend once- after that, Malwarebytes felt "stable" (I updated from 5.0.0.19).
The thing is, if I change the language to german, there are sentences in english - like the description in sec. advisor, which I have seen in german, by switching the language back to english (at least for a few seconds - during the above behavior right after the update).
(before you release the german version, please have someone to have a little look over it - right now I leave it to this, because you are still working on it)
Maybe the above written is not relevant to you, because no one in "real life" will ever update from 5.0.0.19 to 5.xxxx, then, at least translate "Dashboard" to "Übersicht".
guys, i appreciate the work you do - you are on a good way.
