Standalone Issue Scanner

[Amaroq_Starwind]

I read about the Malwarebytes Issue Scanner included with the Techbench, and I was curious about something.

Is there any chance we could eventually get a standalone version of the issue scanner, even if it were a non-portable and/or license-locked version?

Glad to hear you like what you have read about the Malwarebytes Issues Scanner. It's a powerful tool in the right hands and can make the life of a technician easier.

Right now, it's an exclusive component of the Malwarebytes Toolset which is available as part of the Malwarebytes Techbench Advanced program for Technicians. Honestly, it is designed to be used by a technical user that is used to diagnosing and repairing PCs. 

With that being said, in the future you may see the Malwarebytes Toolset or components of it like the Malwarebytes Issue Scanner become accessible in other products and/or channels of ours that cater towards a more technical user.

At the moment, I'm mainly interested in giving it a try on my own computers for some more advanced troubleshooting, but 15 days isn't a lot of time, and I don't want to register under false pretenses as the owner of a non-existent tech shop.

 

That being said, I think Memtest86+ would be a good thing to bundle with the toolset (with the appropriate license documentation regarding free/open source software), and it has been a long time since anyone has updated it. It would be interesting to see what the Malwarebytes team could do with it.
