PeterM Posted May 26, 2017 ID:1130470 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I started out subscribing to MBAM 3.0.xxxxx. Had nothing but problems on my 8Gig HP Pavilion. It was sucking up my CPU resources and practically slowing my computer to a crawl. Then went to 3.0.6.1469, 3.0.7.1003, 3.0.7.1043, Still had problems. So I download a previous version 2.2.1.1043. Runs fine, no problems. Would like to know if the techs at MBAM are ever going to get this issue corrected? I see many posts where people are still having problems. I also see now there is a newer version 3.1.2.1733 which I am not now inclined to try. Does anyone have any clue as to what is happening with this V3.x.x.xxxx version. Should I wait for a V4 fix?

nikhils Posted May 26, 2017 ID:1130476 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Hello @PeterM We do understand your frustration with the various issues you have been experiencing. We are continuously trying to improve our product and make it more reliable. That being said I would recommend to install the latest 3.1.2.1733 build. This is a very stable build which has been well tested. https://downloads.malwarebytes.org/file/mb3 for the latest. It works better than 3.0.6 and has many improvements over it. Thank you .

PeterM Posted May 26, 2017 Author ID:1130478 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) Can you install over 2.2.1.1043? Do you have a link that works? Edited May 26, 2017 by PeterM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikhils Posted May 26, 2017 ID:1130479 Share Posted May 26, 2017 The best way would be to run MB-Clean: https://downloads.malwarebytes.com/file/mb_clean This tool will clean up 2.2.1.1043 and will ask you for a reboot. After reboot you will be prompted to reinstall Malwarebytes product again and when you install that will be our latest 3.1.2.1733 product. This tool will also backup your license so you won't have to entry your key anywhere. Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterM Posted May 26, 2017 Author ID:1130492 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Thank you for your prompt response. I am going to wait a few weeks and watch to postings relevant to the newer version before I convert to it. So far as I previously related, the 2.2.1 version is running with no problems.

I thought the tool could not backup the license info for version 2 and below, has that been changed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikhils Posted May 26, 2017 ID:1130579 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Yes, the latest version of the tool available also backs up the 2.x license key and ports it over to the latest 3.x product. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox Posted May 26, 2017 ID:1130584 Share Posted May 26, 2017 No it is no longer needed, as the tool will do this for you.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikhils Posted May 26, 2017 ID:1130585 Share Posted May 26, 2017 I agree. You don't need to do it. If you want to feel safe you could manually deactivate your license key manually, but the tool will then not automatically activate the product for you. After migrating to 3.x you will need to manually enter the key to activate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
