Malwarebytes just ate my laptop

12 years ago General

Hope none of you were using it, recent update has it labling system files and even itself as a trojan. Trying to save what I can as we speak.

They say that an update is out to fix the issue. I'm currently trying to do a system restore.

Good to hear. Had to do the restore twice, went back to the 10th but I'm back up and running.

If we just don't use it will the computer be safe? I haven't updated it recently and now I am contemplating safemodeing and uninstalling until this gets fixed.

They say that an update is out to fix the problem. You can go to the forums of the malwarebytes site. its under support/false positives that all of this was happening. If you had it on manual updating you might be ok since it was a recent update that was thinking everything was a trojan.
