How do I know what the result of a "Scan after update" was?

[Steve1982]

Hi, I'm probably missing something obvious ...

When I run an on-demand scan it's very easy to see what the result of the scan was since there's a big counter while the sscan is running, and at the end there's a big checkmark with the words "No malware found!" which is very reassuring.

However, when Malwarebytes automatically runs a scan after a database update, the only feedback I get is an entry under "Scanner" with the date and time, the time the scan took, and the number of files and apps that was scanned. There is no message saying "No malware found!" or something similar. So how do I know if the "Scan after update" found anything, or not?

Here's a screenshot if it helps ... notice how the top entry that reads "Scan after update" has no message saying what the outcome of the scan was.

Thanks!

Agree this became little confusing, but I think the message will only trigger now when it found anything otherwise it will not show nothing.

Hi @Steve1982 & @Pogba65,

Pogba65 is correct, unless something is detected there is no notification.  In the case that malware is found, be assured that a notification will be sent for removal.

@Nathan I think it would be better if the message trigger When there is no issue found For better user experience! ☺️
