I have used the combination of ESET AV and MBAM (both paid versions) for many years. I have recently become disenchanted with MBAM for many reasons such as: now proclaims itself an AV solution yet cannot detect test-case viruses even when applied to the file directly by right click; attempts to run in Windows safe modes where the OS has made explicit decision to not load it; causes conflicts with ESET and sometimes deadlocks even when I set a delayed start time for it; and many other issues. I would like to run a better conceived anti-malware solution that works and plays well with ESET AV and I'm asking for suggestions based on positive personal experience. Note, I'm willing to pay for that software.
Why do you deem it necessary to have multiple AV solutions. Eset is more than capable of identifying malware. It is not good practise to have more than one AV installed on a machine anyway as they can cause conflict.
For years, the normal procedure has been to have both an AV and an anti malware product. Even the OS has different "registration" categories for the two. Your reply indicates that this is no longer the conventional wisdom. The ESET forums of past years were chuck full of the attempts and problems of the two companies to produce compatible products. One of my complaints, in fact is that MBAM is decidedly not an AV product even though its creators claim it is.
There was a time in the past where anti-virus products were designed to detect just that - viruses. Those days are long gone predominately because viruses although they still exist, are few in number these days. Hence the term anti-virus solution is not really applicable to today's AV vendor offerings. They are actually anti-malware solutions covering the full spectrum of malware that exists today.
MalwareBytes originates from the past days where a gap existed by what was protected by AV solutions. Over the ensuring years, it has tried to evolve into a full spectrum anti-malware solution and has not really been successful in doing so.
If you are looking for a second opinion anti-malware solution, just enable Windows Defender periodic scanning in Win 10. By default it will a daily scan. The only negative to this is WD will load at boot time its real-time scan engine and it will remain resident consuming memory resources, although it is only used for daily scan purposes. Or you can continue to use MBAM in non-real time mode to perform daily or other scheduled off-line scanning. I personally would opt for WD since its signature detection has vastly improved recently now that Microsoft has out-sourced it.
You and others in this thread seem to be recommending/assuming going to Win 10. This raises an obvious question: Does ESET intend to abandon support of Win 7 machines come Jan 2020? I, as many others, am reluctant to move to 10 given that MS wants complete control of the machine while not having earned sufficient trust.
As people have mentioned windows 7 will no longer receive updates - while eset and other AVs can protect you, with an out of date OS the risks go up. I've always compared it to a top security jail with a hole in the fence - you can have a lot of security but if there's a big hole, security etc. then there's a chance something can slip through.
I found windows 8 and certainly after the 8.1 update was actually not bad. The biggest complaint seemed to be about the start menu but I found the metro start was just as good once you got used to it - you could just hit start and type and get what you wanted but if there is a choice I always use the more classic kind (as in windows 10 default). Windows 8's biggest problem was it felt like a tablet os for desktop and a desktop for tablet but 8.1 seemed to fix that - 10 has basically took that and brought some missed stuff back.
As for Linux I've always wanted to try it just never got round to it. Do you need to know a lot of commands? That's the one thing that put me off - it sounded like a lot of stuff needed commands and drivers could be a nightmare.
There are many flavours of Linux. You could easily install a distro in a VM such as Virtual Box on your Windows 7 machine to get the feel for it. Just bear in mind that the performance will not be great unless your host PC is of a decent spec, i.e. plenty of RAM and a good CPU. You can allocate varying resources to the VM.
Commands will help you a lot for sure , but if you start with Ubuntu ( I like MATE GUI , search for Ubuntu MATE ) , then you can do most of the job through the GUI till you get to learn about the commands and so on.
The uninstall procedure is described in the documentation, also available through the Help menu in all versions of Malwarebytes' Mac software, as well as in the following articles on our support site:
The core of the problem with this entire topic is that macOS has no centralized uninstall process. This means that, although every application that requires an installer - and many that don't - must be uninstalled properly, there is no place in the system where you can go to do that as there is on Windows. (This is one of the few things Windows has gotten right and macOS has gotten wrong.)
For all such applications, you should always search the program's documentation and/or website to find the proper uninstall procedure, then use that. The reasons I recommend doing this, and not trying to remove files manually are as follows:
I hope that clarifies all the issues here. We have done our best to make uninstalling Malwarebytes software as simple as possible, and will be trying another strategy in the future, but as shown above, it cannot be said that the software doesn't come with an option to uninstall it.
No really...it's not an option...I had the trial version - maybe that's why I (and others) don't have the uninstall option? I followed tybg's directions and finally got rid of it - although some of the files weren't quite the same.
This means that the file cannot be removed. In order to remove it, you would have to disable SIP. I don't recommend doing that. The file is not actively loaded, it's just taking up space on disk - and only a small amount of space, at that. Since it's unclear for what purpose Apple keeps those files in that location, and you'd have to disable an important security feature to remove it, you're better off just leaving it alone.
This is wrong. There's no reason to manually hunt down files and remove them. The correct answer has already been posted here several times - once with a screenshot - in the year since the question was originally asked: choose the Uninstall option from the Help menu within Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac.
Give me some technical reason , I use adobe flash player , sometimes used etrecheck and we have to find out the related plist for that App and move to trash , restart the computer & emptying the trash removes traces of the app .
