Database is missing or Corrupt

[NickColbert1]

Every Time I try to open Malwarebytes I get a icon that pops up saying, Product Files are missing or Corrupt please reinstall. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, and it will work for awhile then it will just randomly start doing that again, also I use Firefox and it will just randonmly close out whatever webpage I am on. I know its a virus so I need your help!. I followed the support teams directions from another similar post here, where you said to download DDS, then attach it here so thats what I did.

I have the same error message every time to boot up. I am using the paid version so the services are trying to start up. My problem started after a semi-automatic update/upgrade. I was prompted that a newer version was downloaded and do I want to update. I said yes and ran through the install basically clicking on Yes since it had all my previous answers. Since then I have tried a full re-installation but I still get this error. After I click on yes I get a confirmation that the database has been updated from 0.000.000 to whatever the new one is. This happens every morning. I have read your posts and others about mbam-clean but I an concerned about using it since I cannot find the e-mail that had my license key; in about I can only see my ID. Is there another place, perhaps in the registry, that I can find this key? I know I will need it if I do the mbam-clean and re-installation onto the same computer.

Ilmar J. Molder Hello and

Normally its best to start your own topic so that the helpers or the person being helped does not get confused, that being said....

You should use the clean install method as outlined below:

Please do the following:

• 
  
• Download and run mbam-clean.exe from here
  
• It will ask to restart your computer, please allow it to do so very important
  
• After the computer restarts, temporarily disable your Anti-Virus and install the latest version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here
  
  • 
    
  • Note: You will need to reactivate the program using the license you were sent via email if using the Pro version
    
  • Launch the program and set the Protection and Registration. Then go to the UPDATE tab if not done during installation and check for updates.
    Restart the computer again and verify that MBAM is in the task tray if using the Pro version. Now setup any file exclusions as may be required in your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security/Firewall applications and restart your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security applications. You may use the guides posted in the FAQ's here or ask and we'll explain how to do it.
    

As you you not having your ID and Key see below....

You should contact Cleverbridge.....

Hello Dear Malwarebytes,

I hope to be in the good Topic.

Please, could you help me ?

I have had a big problem with my PC (Win XP) when I used Malwarebytes,

In fact I have launched a scan and as usual I updated the software, when the scan was finished

the result of the scan was three or four Trojans and others, at this moment I chose “Delete”

Bad choice, since my PC is freeze, when I restart it Window open with the following texto:

Explorer.EXE – Unable To Locate Component

VThis application has failed to start because BROWSEUI.dll was not found.

Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

I have tried to restart my PC with the Safe mode but the message has opened again and I am always in the same situation.

Please, do you have a solution?

Thanks a lot in advance

Best regards

Michel

FIrefox, I just wanted to say thank you and to let you know all is well once again. I contacted Cleverbridge and they were able to send me a link to my Product ID and key. Once I had that I did as you suggested with the mbam-clean and ran a full re-installation.

Thanks again
