Bug

[Manstie]

When you start a scan and then register the product it will switch to the protection tab and you can't get back to it even after the scan has finished.

Basically... It took 2 hours to scan my computer, and I couldn't see the results or remove the viruses because I couldn't change the tab. Now to wait another 2 hours.

Hi Manstie an welcome to malwarebytes.

Umm, why did you register it during a scan? You should register it before or after one. Of course doing that stuff could cause problems.

Well who would have known that registering during a scan would restrict me to seeing and removing the results?

You're right, it's clearly a bug. Thank you for bringing it to our attention- I'll make sure to pass it off to the development team.

If you want to disable the protection module, right-click on the MBAM tray icon and then click the ENABLE PROTECTION tab; it'll ask, "Are you sure?"; answer yes, and the module will be disabled.

Or did I misunderstand the question? Ummm; like Buttons said, "Umm, why did you register it during a scan? You should register it before or after one." in Post #2..
