MBAM Quarantined files Deleted by CCleaner


Recommended Posts

I urge the developers of CCleaner to not remove the Quarantined files from Malwarebytes Anti-Malware security software's Quarantine folder.  This prevents users from recovering from a false positive if MBAM has incorrectly quarantined a file and the user executes CCleaner before they know that MBAM has made an error.  Please remove FileKey2 and FileKey4 from the winapp.ini code.  Users of MBAM should have total control over when Quarantined files are removed.
