MalwareBeGone

Thank you for your detailed response. I am very paranoid about security hence why i run full scans. I will endeavor to only full scans only on my SSD which is not going to wear and tear like a mechanical hard drive and is obviously the disk with my actually windows/programs on. However the scans still that like 45 minutes after a clean install with all my programs installed but now can take 2-2.5 hours

Malwerebytes scans taking progressively longer and longer After a clean install it too around 1.5 hours for a complete scan. Now it take around 3.5 hours when my other anti virus/malware programs take around just 2 hours. I understand that adding more programs and/or files would make the scans longer but even near-identical scans where my files and programs have not been added/deleted/altered the scans still take long and longer I have read other threads about this and don't really see any solutions
