Malwarebytes and Safe mode
ok, guys. I know I am not the one who should tell it to you as the are lots of people more knowledgeable then me.
But I have seen this happening here and many other security forums (and not just once ) and I was doing the same in the past, so just to inform you.
Many of us while helping user who is infected or suspected to be infected recommend them to use our trusty Malwarebytes Anti Malware but at the same time most of us recommend to use it in safe mode.
Theoretically it is great, as safe mode loads only basic drivers and applications so there will be less things (or even malware) to interact with MBAM scan.
But no, it's not recommended to run Malwarebytes in safe mode unless normal mode fails.
Just take a look at those thread, they are from official Malwarebytes forum and aswered by their staff.
And all of them against running Malwarebytes in safe mode unless normal mode fails:
Running MBAM in Safe Mode - Malwarebytes Forum
Should i run MalwareBytes in normal or in safe mode? - Malwarebytes Forum
Should I run Malwarebytes in Safe mode? - Malwarebytes Forum
Safe Mode vs Normal Mode - Malwarebytes Forum
SAFE MODE - Malwarebytes Forum
`Safe Mode` or `Normal Mode` - Malwarebytes Forum
