Windows 10: Is it safe to install MalwareBytes on the D: partition of HDD?

I have a small SSD. For programs where speed is not essential, I install these on the D: partition of my HDD.

Does it cause problems if I install MalwareBytes on D: ? It's the paid version.

I plan to do a simple uninstall, followed by an install of the latest version.

Thanks.

W7 Hard drive partition issue

to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

- press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
- diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
- list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
- select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
- clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
- create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
- exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
- click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that

 

HDD partitions format

Used a tool from the list and it worked..
Install won't start if windows can't recognize the partitions.

 

Getting a new PC tommorow...

• Set up your hardware
• Insert CD/DVD install
• Format a partition of 30GB as a quick format
• Install the OS
• Create a new partition D: for data, and S: for setupfiles
• Put all your install files into S
• Before installing, run windows update
• Once up to date, reboot
• Install AV
• Update AV
• NOW install any drivers
• And then any software
• Top Utils: ccleaner, defraggler, tclock, utramon, winrar, irfanview, wordweb, malwarebytes, speedfan,
• Now create a partition copy of your C: into a hidden partition. If you evey need to reformat, you just copy the setup from the hidden partition
• You might want Acronis Disk Director to do the previous step. Easy
