MBAM 2 not updating


Recommended Posts

Sorry I have to post here but the forum for MBAM 2 said " You cannot post any new topics." dunno why that is but here I am.

 

I am discouraged that the new version doesn't update automatically every day. I find I am constantly going to the tooltray and updating manually. In the settings I have it set to update every hour starting at 1 PM. Then there is a choice under ADVANCED for RECOVER MISSED TASK. I am assuming, maybe wrongly so that this will allow the program to update if it didn't on the first go 'round, I have this one set at 5 hours. Not sure if my interpretation is correct or not. I'd like to think the program would realize that no updates occured overnight and as soon as the machine is awake it would update, but that's not the case. Needless to say not having the latest defintions is a disadvantage.

 

Thank you all in advance,

 

J T

Sadly the clean install did nothing to help the problem.

 

I think that because I never shut the machine OFF entirely, instead I use HIBERNATE or SLEEP, it's causing the trouble.

 

MBAM never:

 

1/ Tells me the database is outdated

2/ Updates automatically ( the way I am using it at least)

 

Too bad because my virus scanner doesn't mind if I use HIBERNATE, it will update as soon as it sees an internet connection.

 

Oh well... lesson learned.I'll have to be content to manully update a program that should be doing it automatically.

 

If you have any ideas to make it perform as designed, let me know.

 

Regards,
