Auto Update & Auto scan problem

[Joshua1947]

Hi- I recently purchased the 1.44 version of Malwarebytes and have not been able to get it to Auto Scan or Auto Update. I checked my settings and everything seems correct. Any help ?

Please do the following to see if it corrects the problem:

Windows XP:

• Click on Start and click Run
  
• In the run box type services.msc and press Enter
  
• Once the Services window opens, scroll down the list until you find the Task Scheduler and double click on it
  
• Click the Start button to start the service, then click the drop down menu next to Startup Type and select Automatic
  
• Click the Apply button and click on Ok
  
• Close the Services control panel
  

Windows Vista and Windows 7:

• Click on the Start Orb and type services.msc and press Enter
  
• Click Continue at the User Account Control prompt
  
• Once the Services window opens, scroll down the list until you find the Task Scheduler and double click on it
  
• Click the Start button to start the service, then click the drop down menu next to Startup Type and select Automatic
  
• Click the Apply button and click on Ok
  
• Close the Services control panel
  

Please let me know how it goes.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I already tried this fix. All settings were OK.
