Anti-Exploit is running but not launching browser protection

[Pernaman]

After some Windows 10 system upgrades my Anti-Exploit has seemed to start having hiccus, as it seems to be running normally in my system, but when I launch rowser, it doesn't give "Browser and annonds are now protected", and the logs don't update. This has usually happeneed only when turning on my PC for the first time of the day, and usually I've managed to fix this problem just by logging out and back in to my computer username. However, now even that doesn't seem to fix the problem. Could it be that AE has become to have some compability problems with Windows 10 upgrades or something?

Hello and Welcome

I could not say if its having compatibility problems with Windows 10 upgrades, as I don't work for Malwarebytes.

I would suggest uninstalling your copy of MBAE and then installing a fresh copy, which should fix your issue.

I went and unistalled MBAE from control panel, but after reinstalling it still had my protection log history from the past year I've used AE. Nonetheless, it seems to work currently. Thanks!

Great, let us know if you continue to have issues with it.

BTW I asked a mod to move your topic to the MBAE section of the forum, so don't be surprised if it gets moved.

[Pernaman]

Yeah, I just didn't find MBAE section in Sopport subforum.

No worries... MBAE section is located --> HERE <-- for future reference

I've had the notification set on the entire time. But even though it would be set off, shouldn't it be still inserted in program's logs whenever I open my browser, or is it still activating automatially in the background?

Sorry cant tell you I just pasted the latest change log.

My reinstalled MBAE worked fine until this morning when it once again didn't give any "Browser is now protected" notification or didn't update it's logs and I had to log out and in on m Windows 10 user again to get it to work.

Hi Pernaman,

We changed the UI protection logging and protection tray notifications to off by default with the 1.09 release. If you would like to turn it back on, check the below settings. Thanks.

 

[Pernaman]

Those two settings have been on during the time while I've had this issue.
