I disabled/exit' the Malwarebytes, and then this error popped up:

[shell_NorifyIcon] couldn't perform.... Error code: 1460

What does it tell me?

Hi -

Can you please be a bit more specific with what you mean by "disabled/exit" -

Did you cancel a scan that was operating , or were you downloading -

Try this quick fix first - It may help -

I right-clicked on the Malwarebyte icon and exitted it. Then the error poped up.

@Esetisthebest

Does this have version 1.46 of MBAM ? You can verify a couple of ways: Hover your mouse over the MBAM icon in system notification area. Does it show version 1.46 ?

Alternatively, while in MBAM, click the About tab and check.

Also, advise us as to which version/edition of Windows is on this system, and whether it has other security programs installed.

Isn't this one of the problems that was solved by delaying the startup of MBAM?

(I was under the impression that a "startup delay" option would be incorporated in v1.46, but either I misunderstood, I'm missing it or it never made it!)

I'm currently running Windows 7 64-bit, with Threatfire and Eset Nod32 4.2.40.

The version of Malwarebytes' I'm using is 1.46(latest).

It's not a major problem. I can start the protection, etc, but I was just wondering what the whole problem was all about. I think I've got it 3 times before. All I want to do is to help you guys out, fixing errors that bothers me, and get answers.
