wizdomonwheels Posted March 30, 2022 ID:1509213 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Several times this week I am unable to install MalwareBytes due to ARM processors. In the interim I am simply running these products with the built in Windows Defender. The most recent was a Samsung product that failed to install. Additionally any time I use Parallels on the M1 Macs using Windows 10 or 11 for ARM it is not possible to install MalwareBytes either. Most software runs and installs just fine but not MalwareBytes. Please consider working on a version for ARM based chips. I rarely saw them 1 or 2 years back, but now they are becoming more common as the days go by. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David H. Lipman Posted March 30, 2022 ID:1509216 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Please reference: Malwarebytes for Windows ARM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porthos Posted March 30, 2022 ID:1509222 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Thanks for the suggestion. Currently as you have experienced Malwarebytes is not compatiable with any ARM based Windows system. https://support.malwarebytes.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038984713-System-requirements-for-Malwarebytes-for-Windows Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizdomonwheels Posted March 31, 2022 Author ID:1509234 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I appreciate your responses, thank you. This was simply a request for the developers to consider developing a product that is becoming more and more necessary as time goes on. I've already read many of the articles saying it is not needed yet, or it's not developed yet. The reality of our computing world is that the products we ridiculed or downplayed in the past are now here for users to purchase en-masse. Ignoring this market will only bite us in the butt. I can run most of the common apps and products on Windows 11 ARM which also means I can also run many of the common malware and spyware applications as well on Windows 11 ARM. People said Macs didn't need anti-virus/anti-malware protection for the longest time, and here we are with countless viruses and malware on the market for Macs. MalwareBytes fully supports M1/ARM on Mac and it's getting near time to support ARM on Windows as well. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted March 31, 2022 Root Admin ID:1509246 Share Posted March 31, 2022 No one is ridiculing. We are in fact working on it. However, don't expect any real progress any time soon. Within the next five years is when we'll probably see ever-increasing growth in its use. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizdomonwheels Posted March 31, 2022 Author ID:1509297 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I’m glad it’s on the radar and appreciate you taking the time to respond. I apologize regarding the ridicule, that wasn’t intended towards anyone who has responded so far. When searching for ARM support it was almost as common to see this behavior as when looking at Apple/Android/Windows forums. There’s always someone who takes their love or disdain for a product a bit too far in their arguements. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malwarebytes is already available native on Mac OS Apple Silicon M1,2&3. And Windows ARM is definitely getting out there - as well as native ARM hardware, both VMware Fusion and Parallels support Windows 11 ARM on current versions of Mac OS ... Just saying - you don't want to miss the boat! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kolotyluk Posted June 8 ID:1641818 Share Posted June 8 I just paid for 3 devices, but I cannot install on Windows 11 ARM. Given the Snapdragon X Elite is now shipping in Microsoft products, and I have had a Microsoft Volterra for over a year now, I hope Malwarebytes is making a priority of this.

Gloserous Posted June 19 ID:1643945 Share Posted June 19 I would greatly appreciate if Malwarebytes for ARM64 was developed. If Malwarebytes ARM64 is released will it support lifetime licenses? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
