My husbands' old Asus PC has no issues with its Malware bytes and must have, as you said, reactivated itself. Works fine! Thanks for your help Porthos!

Well, I DID remove my PC from the list and it worked. I also had a old notebook [Windows 7 base] with a NEVER EXPIRE license on it. It was my husbands' and had a separate license. I had to remove that PC from the list too. That PC had a NEVER EXPIRE license as far back as 2010. Will I be able to reinstall that license to that PC?

I had to reinstall the Windows O/S on my laptop and now I am trying to reinstall, on the same PC, my Malware Bytes Premium NEVER EXPIRE license. I downloaded the [.exe] file and proceeded to set up but the app is telling me... " device limit exceeded" I don't want to 'remove' my PC from the list in 'mymalwarebytes' website because its the same PC. What should I do to restore my license?

And then there is this.....

I agree. MB users are, however, affected, right?

I would think this forum would be interested in issues like @garioch7 and would NOT make a fuss over this discussion. I, for one, am very interested in any updates dealing with this conflict. As I posted earlier, I want both programs. It is a safety net. I run another program (Ccleaner) and these three make (IMO) a fine triumvirate. I received a new computer 18 months ago and reinstalled the K program first then the MB program then Ccleaner. Upon suggestion of @Porthos I configured the MB ALLOW list for K, turned on MB's REALTIME PROTECTION and now no longer receive the message to turn it on. No fuss from K though K still doesn't get along with MB. Still, I would monitor what happens with @garioch7.

I receive no 'pop-up' warnings from Kaspersky, just this notice. I can SKIP it and I can KEEP it (Malwarebytes) but the warning remains.

I will most certainly check this out! Thanks!

Food for thought. I've had these 2 programs running side by side for over 12 years and I've not had a serious breech. It is only the last year or so that this conflict has risen.

I wonder if Malwarebytes has something similar to Safe Money?

That is a tough question. A side by side comparison shows each to be nearly equal in strength. Kaspersky, however, has Safe Money which I have used for YEARS. Kaspersky also has a Firewall. But I am loath to give up my Malwarebytes. I feel it fills in the little 'holes' that might be lurking out there. What it comes down to is.... i want them both!

I am running a legacy license (Malwarebytes Browser Guard version 2.6.25) I have Kaspersky Plus. This software always reminds me that Malwayebytes is an incompatible program and wants it removed. (I will not) Malwarebytes wants me to turn on "real time protection' but I don't know if this will conflict with the Kaspersky Plus. Any suggestions?

Thank you for this good information. I found the "update" location and have done so.

I am currently running Malwarebytes 4.0.4 but when I go to My Account there is a request to download Malwarebytes 3.0 Premium. Should I then download this version to be up to date? BeeGee
