Hi,

I'm having issues getting MBAM or MBAM Clean to run.  I keep getting this error "the application was unable to start correctly 0xc0000279".

It seems to be only affecting the operation of MBAM however no other malware detection programs seem to be able to pick up on anything.

I usually only run MBAM and Windows Defender, but I downloaded AVG and tried scanning with that and also the ESET online scanner which turned up nothing.

I've tried running Rkill, TDSSKiller.  And also FRST in and outside of windows.

Computer specs:

The situation is the same unfortunately.

 

I was reading another post where you helped someone with the same issue.

You got them to run a fixlist through FRST outside of windows which seemed to resolve it for them.

Composing said fixlist and what exactly you had it do is beyond me.

Can we deconstruct MBAM outside of windows with FRST from the command prompt?

That was a different case, but who knows maybe it will be needed here too.

 

FRST.gif Scan with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

Please re-run Farbar Recovery Scan Tool to give me a fresh look at your system.

  • Right-click on FRST.gif icon and select RunAsAdmin.jpg Run as Administrator to start the tool.
    (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
  • Make sure that Addition.txt option is checked. option is checked.

  • Press Scan button and wait.

  • The tool will produce two logfiles on your desktop: FRST.txt and Addition.txt.


Please attach report into your next reply.

Sorry for delay. Let me know if this helped:

 

FRST.gif Fix with Farbar Recovery Scan Tool

icon_exclaim.gif This fix was created for this user for use on that particular machine. icon_exclaim.gif


icon_exclaim.gif Running it on another one may cause damage and render the system unstable. icon_exclaim.gif

Download attached fixlist.txt file and save it to the Desktop:

Both files, FRST and fixlist.txt have to be in the same location or the fix will not work!

  • Right-click on FRST.gif icon and select RunAsAdmin.jpg Run as Administrator to start the tool.
    (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File).
  • Press the Fix button just once and wait.
  • If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
  • When finishes FRST will generate a log on the Desktop, called Fixlog.txt.

Please attach it to your reply.
