Running Windows Repair disabled Malwarebytes

(1/3) > >>

ka6uup:
After running Tweaking.com Windows Repair, when trying to run Malwarebytes I get a message " unable to start;unable to connect to service.
I went to services and tried to start the service manually but it would not start???
Malwarebytes was running fine prior to this.
Thanks,
Chuck

I only use the free version of MBAM and have its service set to Manual, but WR has never stopped it from running when I've used it.

I would suggest reinstalling MBAM.

It's possible that Event Viewer or reliability history has some info as to why it can't be started.

In Services/MBAM/Properties its only two Dependencies are RPC and Windows Management Instrumentation - these should both be showing as Running and Auto - can you check those in Services ?

ka6uup:
Actually, I have reloaded it several times with no luck
RPC and windows management Instrumantion are both running

Boggin:
Which antivirus program are you using and will MBAM run in Safe Mode with Networking ?

Still_Game:
Have you tried running Malwarebytes clean tool? It'll do a compete clean of your current installation, prompt you to reboot, download and reinstall the latest version. It will preserve your current licence though you'd be wise to make sure you had your licence details recorded just in case.
