Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware mbamext.dll removal

[saltedm8]

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware does not seem to work on my windows 7, so I thought I would delete the folder it left behind...

I managed to delete most the files, but there is one left over mbamext.dll it seems to be running ( as windows 7 is telling me ) but its not in the processes and I cant even remove it using any 'hard to remove file deleters' I cant use killprocess in cmd as its not listed in the processes

( to be honest I have not tried safe mode, but I would prefer to do it from my main windows if possible.. as getting to safe mode on my pc requires me to mess with the boot options and I dont like doing that )

has anyone got any other ideas on how to remove it..

thanks

First, I want to challenge your original statement. Better than removing MB, maybe we can fix it? How does it not work?

If you are really intent on removing it, though, we can try a few things. First, download MB again, and install it. Then run the uninstaller it provides.
Hopefully that will work.

dont worry, thanks for your reply though

I was being a twit and did not think to go to their site and see if they have a way to remove their own files, it says there to use fileassassin.. it required a reboot but it worked

it was only the files it left behind I was having issues with, as the program was uninstalled properly, I dont really need it, its just something I had as a just in case measure

thanks again
