prombamuser Posted January 21, 2017 ID:1090163 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I just updated to 3.0.6. I deactivated my license and uninstall 3.0.5 and did a reboot. I installed 3.0.6 and activated my license. Everything appears good...so far. There are still 2 bugs; one is cosmetic so it is no big deal. The other is the Edit and Remove buttons in Exploit Protection List is greyed-out. I didn't know if this bug was address in this release, so I thought I would mention it. The cosmetic bug is in the User Access - you have to hit the tab key twice to get to the password field. No big deal. Also, I really hope the staff considers adding a Backup/Restore feature for Exploit Protection List and possibly other settings. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John A Posted January 21, 2017 ID:1090164 Share Posted January 21, 2017 The Edit and Remove buttons in Exploit Protection are now active for custom shields at least! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prombamuser Posted January 21, 2017 Author ID:1090165 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Thanks, John. I did not think of adding a program and seeing if the buttons were active, They were not in 3,0,5. I just assume it was still broken. It may be intentional that they buttons are inactive for the preinstalled items. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telos Posted January 21, 2017 ID:1090235 Share Posted January 21, 2017 IIRC, the Edit and Remove buttons in Exploit Protection are not intended for the default programs... only the custom programs you choose to add. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZVAXX Posted January 21, 2017 ID:1090255 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) - Version 2 uninstalled -> mb3-setup-consumer-3.0.6.1458.exe installed on W7 / x64: Error message ...- mbam-clean-2.3.0.1001.exe -> mb3-setup-consumer-3.0.6.1458.exe installed: OK (no error message)- scan drive C: CPU usage 100% (NB-i5 CPU), the computer is practically blocked for other work an entire hour ...- shutdown: about 1.5 minutes (an "improving shutdown time on Windows 7" is still not to be determined)Preliminary Conclusion: mb3 3.0.6.1458 (like its 3.0-predecessor versions) is practically not usable! (at least on all my W7 systems)(I had to restore an image from C: to continue to use version 2.1.8, which works fine) Edited January 21, 2017 by ZVAXX Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishrman Posted January 22, 2017 ID:1090425 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I recently installed 3.0.5. I notice that it tells me I am not fully protected and need to turn Exploit Protection on. When I click on it says it is "starting" but never changes! If I update to 3.0.6 do I just uninstall the 3.0.5 and then install 3.0.6? Will I be able to use the same activation key etc. as I used for 3.0.5? Where is the best place to download 3.0.6 from? Thanks for the help! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John A Posted January 23, 2017 ID:1090630 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Yes you should update, and your licence will be good, but deactivate it from 3.0.5 before you uninstall it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
