Check for Updates doesn't work


Recommended Posts

When I click [Check for Updates] in Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, it is saying:

An error occurred. Please report the following error code to the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware support team.

Error code: 732 (0, 0)

Does anyone know what this means?

My system is Windows XP Home SP3.

I have Microsoft Security Essentials installed, could it be interfering?

However I have another XP Pro system with this and Malwarebytes updates without a problem.

Any help appreciated!

Hello and ;)

As this indicates you are running an older version, Please follow the instructions below to install the latest version which is version 1.46.

Please try the following to see if it helps:

Windows XP:

  • Click on Start and select Control Panel
  • Open Add/Remove Programs
  • Uninstall Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
  • Restart your computer very important
  • Download and run mbam-clean.exe from here
  • NOTE: If you get SHGetValue failed with error code 0, that only means that the tool has nothing to perform, continue on with the next step....
  • It will ask to restart your computer, please allow it to do so very important
  • After the computer restarts, temporarily disable your Anti-Virus and install the latest version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here
    • Note: You will need to reactivate the program using the license you were sent via email if using the Pro version
    • Launch the program and set the Protection and Registration. Then go to the UPDATE tab if not done during installation and check for updates.
      Restart the computer again and verify that MBAM is in the task tray if using the Pro version. Now setup any file exclusions as may be required in your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security/Firewall applications and restart your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security applications. You may use the guides posted in the FAQ's here or ask me and I'll explain how to do it.
