First off, this is EXACTLY the screen that I DO NOT want to see at boot! Secondly I am not some "newbie" (what a stupid word!), and have been programming for over 30 years, so save the kindergarden explanations for kindergardeners, I know what the buttons are supposed to do- "duh"! Third, If it is not going to be a stand alone, it is now uninstalled. I cannot recommend a product to any of my customers, that I do sys maintenance and repairs for, that is part of a package they do not need many parts of. Further, I will not be malwarebytes guinea pig, any more than I'll be Microsoft's with their Win 10 farce (I personally use Linux). I already know exactly how to not get ransomware, but was testing this for recommendation to my customers, which is not going to happen now, as there's now reason to.

There are several improvements that this software needs. First, turn off the worthless control panel that starts when you boot, as the symbol in the active (bottom right of screen) section is sufficient. It's just an annoyance to have to close it every time you boot. Second, do something with the control panel/gui. It does not do anything! You cannot update, there's no "about malwarebytes anti ransomware" place to click to check the version, nor anything else at all to set preferences from. Does it auto update? Do I want it to? Can I get it to white-list? On-off button? Zero options for anything! I've never had a ransomware issue, but I've spent a lot of time repairing bricked units (I repair pc's) to know that this is a much needed software. I seriously cannot recommend this to people until it becomes an alpha version. Thanks for trying to do this, in any event.
