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.

Also, note the following.

Malwarebytes Web Protection blocks traffic from domains and IP addresses that could infect your device with threats like trojans, potentially unwanted programs, and viruses. When Web Protection and a third-party application that uses the Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) are enabled on your device, the following issues may occur:

  • blue screen of death (BSoD)
  • loss of Internet 
  • loss of the third-party application's functions

These issues occur because both applications are using the WFP. You must either disable your third-party application or the Malwarebytes Web Protection feature.

Disable third-party application

Issues have been reported when Malwarebytes' Web Protection is enabled and the following third-party applications are running:

  • AdGuard
  • Avast™ antivirus products
  • AVG™ antivirus products
  • BitDefender™ AV products
  • Emsisoft Anti-Malware
  • Firetrust HideAway VPN
  • Kaspersky™ anti-virus products
  • NordVPN™ Threat Protection
  • Private Internet Access
  • Qustodio
  • Sophos anti-virus products
  • SurfShark
  • Techloq Filter

Disable Malwarebytes Web Protection

If you are encountering issues, you may disable Web Protection. Disabling Web Protection means the real-time protection layer no longer blocks traffic from domains and IP addresses that could infect your device. To disable Web Protection, follow these steps:

  1. Open Malwarebytes for Windows.
  2. In the Real-Time Protection card, click the Web Protection toggle.
  3. In the User Account Control pop-up window, click Yes.

Hello @Willy19928

The logs indicate some possible suspicious entries. Trying to run Malwarebytes Premium alongside Norton is not supported either. There is going to be a high risk of crashes and BSOD

 

Please temporarily disable Norton real-time protection and run the following scan

 

 

Please download and run the following Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool 2020 and save it to your Desktop.

(Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool version 20.0.10.0 was released on November 9, 2021)

Download: Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool

Select the  image.png  Windows Key and R Key together, the "Run" box should open.

user posted image

Drag and Drop KVRT.exe into the Run Box.

user posted image

C:\Users\{your user name}\DESKTOP\KVRT.exe will now show in the run box.

image.png

add -dontencrypt   Note the space between KVRT.exe and -dontencrypt

C:\Users\{your user name}\DESKTOP\KVRT.exe -dontencrypt should now show in the Run box.

That addendum to the run command is very important, when the scan does eventually complete the resultant report is normally encrypted, with the extra command it is saved as a readable file.

Reports are saved here C:\KVRT2020_Data\Reports and look similar to this report_20210123_113021.klr
Right-click direct onto that report, select > open with > Notepad. Save that file and attach it to your reply.

To start the scan select OK in the "Run" box.

A EULA window will open, tick all confirmation boxes then select "Accept"

In the new window select "Change Parameters"

In the new window ensure all selection boxes are ticked, then select "OK" The scan should now start...

When complete if entries are found there will be options, if "Cure" is offered leave as is. For any other options change to "Delete" then select "Continue"

When complete, or if nothing was found select "Close"

Attach the report information as previously instructed...
 
Thank you
