On Windows, the paid version runs when Windows starts, as most default anti-crapware programs do that are supposed to prevent crapware from getting on to the computer do in the first place. I was just looking at the support section for Malwarebytes on Mac and, it appears, you’re right…Malwarebytes for Mac has no setting comparable to what it’s got on Windows for launching at the startup of the OS.įor those using Malwarebytes’ paid version on a Mac and who really do want to make sure it runs when the OS starts, a call to Malwarebytes’ support line may offer some further insight into whether or not it has the possibility of running when the OS starts.
