Reset of a 2yr license that stopped working


Recommended Posts

Hello All

I have an issue.  I have many clients that I sell MWB to.  One of my clients purchased a 2-year license in November of 2020.  Recently, MWB started opening popup windows stating the license is expiring in 2 days!  So, I placed a support request to my service rep in Santa Clara on June 9.  I have not heard back from him.  

Is there something I need to do to resolve this - other than me reaching out to my MWB service rep?  I am puzzled as to why MWB is taking so long to answer.  And, it makes me look foolish to my customer.

Any help I can get would be appreciated.

Hi,

Thanks for posting in the Malwarebytes for Windows Help forum.

If you are having technical issues with our Windows product, please do the following:

Malwarebytes Support Tool - Advanced Options

This feature is designed for the following reasons:

  • For use when you are on the forums and need to provide logs for assistance
  • For use when you don't need or want to create a ticket with Malwarebytes
  • For use when you want to perform local troubleshooting on your own

How to use the Advanced Options:

Spoiler
  1. Download Malwarebytes Support Tool
  2. Double-click mb-support-X.X.X.XXXX.exe to run the program
    • You may be prompted by User Account Control (UAC) to allow changes to be made to your computer. Click Yes to consent.
  3. Place a checkmark next to Accept License Agreement and click Next
  4. Navigate to the Advanced tab
  5. The Advanced menu page contains four categories:
    • Gather Logs: Collects troubleshooting information from the computer. As part of this process, Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST) is run to perform a complete diagnosis. The information is saved to a file on the Desktop named mbst-grab-results.zip and can be added as an email attachment or uploaded to a forum post to assist with troubleshooting the issue at hand.
    • Clean: Performs an automated uninstallation of all Malwarebytes products installed to the computer and prompts to install the latest version of Malwarebytes for Windows afterwards. The Premium license key is backed up and reinstated. All user configurations and other data are removed. This process requires a reboot.
    •  Repair System: Includes various system-related repairs in case a Windows service is not functioning correctly that Malwarebytes for Windows is dependent on. It is not recommended to use any Repair System options unless instructed by a Malwarebytes Support agent.
    • Anonymously help the community by providing usage and threat statistics: Unchecking this option will prevent Malwarebytes Support Tool from sending anonymous telemetry data on usage of the program.
  6. To provide logs for review click the Gather Logs button
  7. Upon completion, click OK
  8. A file named mbst-grab-results.zip will be saved to your Desktop
  9. Please attach the file in your next reply.
  10. To uninstall all Malwarebytes Products, click the Clean button.
  11. Click the Yes button to proceed. 
  12. Save all your work and click OK when you are ready to reboot.
  13. After the reboot, you will have the option to re-install the latest version of Malwarebytes for Windows.
  14. Select Yes to install Malwarebytes.
  15. Malwarebytes for Windows will open once the installation completes successfully.

Greetings,

Unfortunately we do not have access to licensing here on the forums so you will need to await a response to your helpdesk ticket.  I apologize for any inconvenience this issue has caused and I hope that the issue is promptly resolved.

If there is anything else we can help with please let us know.

Thanks

Hello @ELGRANPAGAN

I have looked on the Support Help Desk and I did not see any tickets with your email address. Did you create a ticket or can you send me a Private Message with the name and email address of the person you contacted.

I would suggest creating a Support Ticket though so that someone in Support can assist you with any licensing issues.

Thank you
