Title: Win10 Defender and MBAM Free Trial
Post by: artbuc on April 08, 2016, 04:35:52 PM

Looks like the only way you can get free MBAM is to install a 14 day trial of the Premium version. Should I disable Win 10 Defender during this period or disable MBAM or can they run together? I ask because my SIL's new PC seems to be restarting for no apparent reason. I have disabled MBAM (I think) but maybe I missed a setting that is causing an issue. Thanks.

Keep Defender in place...MBAM is a different tool altogether...

Only 1 scan should be ran at a time however...

You can uncheck the "Enable Free trial of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware premium" when installing.
