Anyone who uses a third-party software updater (e.g., Ninite, Patch My PC, software updaters included in programs like Norton 360, CCleaner, etc.) might be interested in reading GrandMastaJ8610's 19-Apr-2022 Restart Loop Issue in the Malwarebytes forum about recent problems with the Malwarebytes v4.5.8.191 update. From AdvancedSetup's 21-Apr-2022 post <here> in that thread:
"After researching this issue, we discovered that we had an invalid certificate on our offline installer that 3rd party installers were using. This was causing the problem when used against recently newer updates. The issue has been resolved, and you should no longer experience this issue during updates."
Feedback from other users in that thread indicate that third-party (non-Malwarebytes) software updaters have caused issues with other Malwarebytes updates in the past.
