Test of 3.05

[Peter2150]

I gave 3.05 a whirl.  All the problems I've seen including the shutdown  issues, and the VSS problem remain unchanged.

I update to v3.05 over 3.04. The annoying protection off popup seems to be fix on my system. I have not seen it in the few hours that I have been running this new version. I am still testing it and I have not rebooted my system yet. I will do that later.

I believe I am ready to run 3.0 on my system. I have started added programs to MBAE. I am wondering what programs I should add. For example, I added PDF X-Change Editor to the list, but I don't use it on the net. Firefox built-in PDF reader loads when I access a PDF on the net. Also, the updater for PDF X-Change seems to be a separate .exe. Do I need to add this program to the list as well? Should I add all my programs' updater to the list even it the main program does not access the internet?

Most of the programs in the list (default) are not installed, but I am planning to leave them in the list. I also noticed that Foxit Phantom is on the list twice. I can add programs, but I cannot edit or delete. I think this is because I am logged into my standard windows user account. I will log into my admin windows account and try it later.

For me:

• Powerpoint crashes randomly when opening a file
• Firefox crashes when attempting to save file (opening works...)
• Malwarebytes service randomly freezes my PC by eating 100% of my CPU
• in many (again random!) cases malware protection module won't start.

I'm disappointed with this fix :(.

Update on testing...I rebooted and everything seems to be working fine. No annoying popup about not fully protected. I do have one problem...I am unable to edit or delete MBAE programs. Those button are greyed-out. I tried running Malwarebytes as Administrator. I tried it under my Windows Admin user account. I am able to add programs. I am not sure if it is a bug or I am doing something wrong. I tried clicking on the program and right-clicking. Nothing, I can turn them off and on; and add. Just not edit or delete.

For me (after a lot of adventures with the first 3.0 version) :

- Powerpoint unable to work (version 2016 family and student...the 2010 one works)

- And this one that I didn't find by myself :
 

Else, everything looks like working fine. I find the "heuristic analyze" very, very fast....and don't know if it is really effective.

NB : I did not "over installed", but uninstalled before then reboot, then install the new version.

Update to 3.05 form 3.04, and very disapointed.

restart the computer, and start was very very long about 10 minutes to begin to work, seem my computer was freezed. Still have the pop up message not fully protected, so I'm going back to the 2.xx

Upgraded to 3.0.5 and I am not seeing the PowerPoint 2016 issue at all.  Also Edge appears to be working fine for me but need to reboot to test.  Seems to have fixed many things for myself on Windows 10 Build 14986.

After reboot Edge issue is back and Exploit Protection needs turning off.  Looked promising after upgrade but needs fixing still.
