Temporary fix for the problem;
- after the bad update occurs, exit Malwarebytes Anti-Malware completely via the Exit option in the tray.
- Open the Program Files folder for Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and open the folder found there named ${vars.product.appdata}
- Move the 3 files found there to the folder C:\ProgramData\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
- Open MBAM again and it should now be working.
- Remove any scheduled update you have for now and do not update manually until we give the all clear that the issue is fixed.
