High RAM usage


keen

Recommended Posts

So I am running 0.9.15.416

 

It has been running smoothly without error since install.

However this AM it popped up and PC slowed to crawl.

 

Checked task manager, had taken up 4400MB of ram, basically everything left after my other running processes. (just under half of my 8GB)

 

I clicked Stop Protection and it immediately started shrinking and has retreated to 33.9MB

 

I just clicked Start Protection and it now says Your system is fully protected but then it still says AntiRansomware Protection is disabled and the Start Protection button has not changed to Stop Protection.  Ram usage us up to 35.1 MB and holding steady.

I'm going to go see if there is a new version...

Hello keen and :welcome:

Thank you for the valuable archives.  Rather than a simple re-install of MBARW Beta6, please consider a clean install of MBARW Beta6:

1. Close all open user applications followed by a conventional Windows based uninstall of Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware through the Windows system Control Panel.
2. If MBARW Beta6 was uninstalled successfully, the following sub-directories will have been deleted from a typical Windows 10 x64 system:

                         C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes\
                         C:\ProgramData\Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware\
                         C:\ProgramData\MBAMService\

3. If any of the above directories remain, please delete them manually.  If necessary, any remaining/uninstalled directory must be deleted in the Windows Safe mode.
4. Execute a conventional Windows restart to the Normal Windows boot mode and log-in through an Administrator's account. <===IMPORTANT!
5. Using an Administrator's account only, download a fresh MBARW_Setup.exe file and save to the Administrator's Desktop from the MBARW Introduction topic.
6. Right-click the saved MBARW_Setup.exe file and left-click RunAsAdmin.jpg  Run as administrator from the context menu and continue.
7. Upon a successful installation, please restart the computer in a conventional manner to the Windows Normal boot mode.

Please reply to your topic with the status of your reported issue.  Thank you again for beta testing MBARW and your valued feedback.
