  1. As this infection deletes a core executable of Malwarebytes' we will need to download a new copy of it and put it in the C:\program files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\ folder. To download the file please click on the following link: Malwarebytes' RANDOM - EXE Download

    When your browser prompts you where to save it to, please save it to the C:\program files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\ folder. When downloading the file, it will have a random filename. Please leave the filename the way it is as it is important that it is not changed. You may want to write down the name of the file as you will need to know the name in the next step.
  2. Once the file has been downloaded, open the C:\program files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\ folder and double-click on the file you downloaded in step 8. MBAM will now start and you will be at the main program screen.

1. When downloading, do not open the file. Just Save it to your Desktop.

2. Go to C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

3. Locate mbam.exe, the file, and delete it (if present).

4. Drag the random MBAM download from the Desktop and drop it in to the C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware folder.

5. Double-click on the random file, and it shall launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.
