My guess is that I expect Anti-Ransomware to be used like Anti-Rootkit. Basically, Anti-Rootkit is always in a beta build. When the build is stable enough, the technology is rolled in Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, and a new beta build for Anti-Rootkit is released. I can see them doing the same thing for Anti-Ransomware. Just a wild guess however.

Having problems with the program forgetting some settings on reboot, however it's a big improvement over previous beta on the PC which the program wouldn't run at all after rebooting so getting there. Very impressed with the program though which I'm thinking may take the place of Zemana AM when final, assuming the final runs OK on this PC as have a full licence.

Did you report that issue on Malwarebytes Forums yet?

I think this will replace my Zemana Antilogger
If Malwarebytes are able to make v3 run stable and with minimal performance impact then I don't see why you shouldn't.
What do you use ZAL standalone or alongside another security product?

I don't recommend using the Beta considering it's more than an Anti-Malware and may conflict with standalone suites like Bitdefender. Did you add each to their Exclusions?

I installed latest beta ,so I thought it would override my current malwarebytes premium but the beta installed in the 64bit program folder and left the other older version intact.Anyone else see that ?

For the beta, it is recommended to uninstall any other Malwarebytes products first (AM, AE and ARW) and then install the beta.

Please report these issues on Malwarebytes Forums, so the team can know about them.

Trying the BETA pretty pleased a couple of issues with the protection. At least my lifetime license will come to good use. :)

You should always disable your licence before uninstalling Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to avoid licencing issues on the new install. And your licence will work on Malwarebytes 3.0, yes.
