When i uninstall Malwarebytes you leave a lot of things behing

[zeepkist]

I tried Malwarebytes but it did not do anything for me.

So, i uninstalled.

When i looked in my registry i found 66 bits of junk that you left behind.

That was not very nice.

When i uninstall an anti malware program i expect you uninstall all your bits and pieces.

Virtually ALL programs leave 'bits and pieces' in your registry when you uninstall them. They are left there for a purpose, such as storing registration details etc.

If this offends you, you can try running the MBAM Clean Tool here:

Hello zeepkist and welcome to Malwarebytes,

I have to agree with markregt... I don't know of many programs, if any, that clean up everything after themselves. You can use a product like Revo Uninstaller next time to help you track down all the traces when uninstalling.

I'm more concerned with what you said about Malwarebytes Anti-Malware though. What were you looking for it to do that it didn't? I know most, including myself, find it an invaluable product and tool so I'm very interested in your opinion. Thanks in advance!

Take care,

swagger

Just for info, much of what Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware leaves behind is saved settings and such should you be planning to reinstall after uninstalling (for example when upgrading to a new version).

Revo is the way to go though if you want something cleaned off your PC and the mbam-clean.exe utility does very well also.
