settings and scan report don't match

[Smalltalker]

I have the latest version of Malwarebytes.  It has been telling me everything is great for a long time.  Scans run daily and report nothing.  I started having some display issues which I thought was a driver.  But it got me to run ESET online scanner which found a bunch of infections.   Malwarebytes scan still says everything is ok in the scan.  Scan options are set to scan for everything including rootkits.  But when I look at the detailed scan report, it says that Filesystem and Rootkits options are disabled.  When you look at the settings, all options are enabled.  How worried should I be about my confidence in Malwarebytes?  Scan report is attached.    Also, I just realized that a custom scan was running on the schedule.  Could something have modified the scan settings on that?  Just deleted it and set up a scheduled threat scan again.   I haven't seen any display issues since I ran ESET.  Ran the scan again after deleting custom scan and report still shows rootkit scan is disabled even though the setting shows it is enabled.  What do I do now?

set up a scheduled threat scan again

You need to set up rootkit scanning in each scheduled scan.

Aha.  Cool I did not realize that the setting for rootkits doesn't apply to scheduled scans.  

I will try that and report again if I encounter an issue.

Thanks for the quick response.
