Malwarebytes Version 4 Updates


Corrine

Recommended Posts

If you're referring to "Opt out for promotional notifications", I'm guessing it is for users of the free version. Since I have a licensed version, I've never received promotional notifications.

Malwarebytes v4.5.34.278 component package 1.0.2102.

 

From Malwarebytes 4.5

 

Issues fixed

  • Minor fix for update logic

 

Edit Note: When updating, I received the referenced component package.  However, the version number remained unchanged. I've sent a PM to H4V0C regarding the difference.

 

Edit Note 2: The referenced update has been edited to show the version number did not change. The correct version is v4.5.34.275.

The attached image shows a portion of what the former Security Advisor, now Trusted Advisor monitors. Since the update also includes the following, it would be because the free version does not monitor those functions.
