What's New in Malwarebytes

September 28, 2026

You might spot a new Scam Guard tab replacing Help in the tab bar (Help's moved under Settings instead). We're trying this out with a portion of users first, so don't worry if yours still looks the same for now. We've been hard at work making a series of small improvements and fixes. You might not notice each one on its own, but together they make a big difference.

I have a lifetime code and…

I have a lifetime code so after changing my motherboard I could not activate it as MalwareBytes have upgraded lifetime codes yet the documentation was out of date.

Once I knew "not to be logged into my account" to use the code, unlike before. To avoid arguing with malwarebytes, I made notes of what to do and informed MalwareBytes. this means they deleted the old Lifetime as I now have a new lifetime code and happier as is MalwareBytes. thank you MalwareBytes.
