Similarly, when BD issues a new version and should you decide to replace it, MBAM should be removed with the MBAM_CLEAN tool, then the older version of BD uninstalled or updated, then MBAM is re-installed and, of course, I add the exceptions to both programs.
When MBAM issues a new major release, requiring the older version to be uninstalled or updated, then disabling BD active scanning is recommended. Usual updates to both Bitdefender and MBAM do not require any action on your part to prevent conflicts, at least in my experience, with my setup. I have also added the Bitdefender folder to MBAM as excluded from scanning.
This is the list of files recommended often on the MBAM Forum. Christian, Root Admin, Post #7Īccording to the Malwarebytes Forum gurus, it is not "necessary" to add exceptions, but it is considered "proactive." In my case, I have added the following MBAM files, under "Excluded Processes" (Antivirus Settings) to Bitdefender: mbam.exe, mbamservice.exe, mbampt.exe, mbamdor.exe, and mbamscheduler.exe. Our beta testers reported some situations when both products were detecting the same file and this can cause slowdowns or crashes.Īlso, please note that MBAM offers by default in all installation kits a 14 days trial period, so be careful and choose Decline when prompted. The older versions are not compatible.Īlso there is one more condition for this: you can use only the FREE version(the one that doesn't have the protection turned on). I now have a final answer for you: you can use now use MBAM near Bitdefender 2013 and only near this product. This is the official reply they link to.even though it is dated July 2012. Some specifically mention Malwarebytes by name and tell folks not to use it.
Members of the Technical Support Group also advise folks they do not recommend using two security solution on the same device because you might encounter performance issues. Members at the Bitdefender forum have confirmed that it will uninstall Malwarebytes so you have to install or reninstall afterwards. During the installation process, the Bitdefender Product may uninstall or disable other security products if such products or features are incompatible with Bitdefender Product.
