Firefox just updated on my OS. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/78.0.1/releasenotes/ Fixed an issue which could cause installed search engines to not be visible when upgrading from a previous release.

I also got the same warning that Malwarebytes would restart in 30 seconds and I just let it count down and then the component update took place after about a minute. I will add though in some previous beta updates that the update installed and I was asked to reboot. I agree with exile360 that there may have been a file that was locked that forced the rebooting the OS. However this time there was no reboot on my OS Windows Pro 1904.

LoL I was expecting that answer but no biggie though. @Porthos thank you!

Hmm, when I upgraded to the latest beta I left Expert system algorithms enabled and it never changed and stayed enabled. Running Windows 10 Pro 1904. I haven’t tried to upgrade to Windows 2004 again because my system froze up.

Thanks 🙏 everyone for all the the information. I came real close to getting a Mac 2020 Air Pro on eBay that came with Catalina 1GB SSD, 8GBs of ram and 3 year Apple support. I don’t remember the processor size. It sold for 980.00 was the highest bid. I’m just not able to do that right now and it may be years before I can but I’m not going to worry about it for now. I do have one question though and I think that the answer is no but I’m going to ask anyway. If I have a Lifetime license which I do. Would I be able to transfer that license from my old laptop to a new Mac laptop?

Yes I'm familiar wit dual booting and BootCamp and I know about Windows testing Linux kernel terminal app in Windows called The Verge.

@MAXBAR1 , Thanks! Yes it gonna take a while before I can afford to switch over but look forward to it and I also read about the ARM based processors at WindowsCentral. I have been doing my homework.

@Firefox , you may want to get Advancedsetup to move your post to File Detection as a possible false positive. Not sure but shadowwar may respond quicker there.

@1PW , Is this a free upgrade for those who may not be able to afford to upgrade to the latest OS Catalina? I don't have a Mac presently but in the future I plan to go with a Mac because there are IMO happen to be more less issues when they update there OS for security reasons and other issues. etc.

@exile360 , I get a redirect using Safari browser. I have not tried Firefox.

@siliconman01 I ran into the same thing and I didn’t see it enabled until I rebooted and it may very well be a bug in the new beta. Forgot to add I’m running Windows 1904 until all the bugs are fixed.

@BillH99999 , I will point you to a similar issue I had and it was just a false positive detection and I’m running the latest Malwarebytes beta. After R&D takes a look at the files that are coming up listed as Malware.Heuristic.106 it will be safe to just ignore and restore the files being detected. I feel everything will be all good so don’t worry all will be okay. I was directed to Malwarebytes Blog and my post is below in File Detections here. I can assure you that after R&D takes a look at everything you will be able to restore the files as they are more than likely just false positives.

Okie dokie I will set to default for a while. 🙂

Okie dokie I haven't ran a full scan they just popped up as soon as I turned on my laptop. Sorry for the delay was right in the middle of eating and had to look at the pics I took and then zip the files.

That I do sir..
