I installed Malwarebytes' about 6 weeks ago. I ran it today and it went through the updates download. Near the end I receive an error "PROGRAM ERROR UPDATING (5,0,CreateFile) Access is Denied" Has anyone else had this problem?

Hi,

This isn't really the right place for MBAM questions. Are you still there?

This is a specialist problem which may need an MBAM specialist answer. I would check the solution here first but urge you to post a query at their forum if that fails.

It appears that this issue is resolved, therefore I am closing the topic. If that is not the case and you need or wish to continue with this topic, please send me or any Moderator a Personal Message (PM) that you would like this topic re-opened.
