Popups when playing games

[unknownguy]

So I was playing with my friends. And then Malwarebytes had finished it's scanning.

Then did it make so I came back to the desktop just to see the scan results.

Any way that I can disable popups when I play a game?

Hi unknownguy,

Yes there is. In the setting under the first tab "application" (I believe) there is a toggle you can use for turning off the notifications. This should stop the pop-ups.
In the user manual (https://www.malwarebytes.com/support/guides/mbam/) you can look up how to disable notifications as well.

I hope this helps and if you have any questions, please ask.

Regards,
Durew

I suffer from this extremely annoying behaviour as well (when a scan completes and every time Antimalware incorrectly thinks that parts of its protection are disabled, which is obviously a bug).

According to the manual, only a very few insignigicant notifications can be disabled. The ones I'm mentioning are apparently impossible to disable, which is a major pain. In Windows 10, it would be better if the regular os-supported notification system was used instead, which never disrupts my gaming sessions.

I'm thinking about reverting to version 2.x + Anti-Exploit (which unfortunately no longer seem available for download so I guess I'll have to get them from unofficial sources), because the current situation with 3.x is unbearable.

Ah, thanks! It would be nice if Malwarebytes made it more easily available, e.g. on the regular download page under "old versions" or something similar.

For Anti-Exploit, the only download url I could find in the Support section is for the business edition (https://downloads.malwarebytes.org/file/mbae_for_business), but an easy guess led me to the (seemingly correct) consumer download:
