Windows 10: Malwarebytes Privacy

I took a chance and signed up for Malwarebytes Privacy today. I have been thinking about a VPN service for a long time.
From what I have been reading, the service this is based on is supposed to be faster than most other services.
What I'm seeing so far, depending on what server I connect to the download/upload speed is reduced to 10 to 30% of my normal download/upload speed.
I normally have 200/20 Mbps download/upload speed but with Malwarebytes Privacy enabled my speed drops anywhere to 20/2 to 55~/4~ Mbps download/upload speed.


I'm just curious as to what experience any of you have using other VPN services?

Then I'll suggest you follow these steps:

1. Press Windows Key + R to open the run dialog

2. In the box that comes up, type services.msc and click OK

3. In the list, find Windows Management Instrumentation, and double click it

4. Change startup type to Automatic

5. See if you can open Malwarebytes, if not, do a reboot.

Hello @walleyeblugil

1. Published lists that could be sorted by build number likely are non-existent. Without devoting more time, it would be best if you quote the entire version number in a reply.
2. If you have an unexpired or lifetime license, a clean install seems indicated if you wish to upgrade to Malwarebytes for Windows. (MB4)

If you wish to upgrade immediately, and your computer meets hardware/software minimums, then:

1. Please first make a safe/written record of the older product's valid Malwarebytes license Key/ID.
2. Deactivate the activated license.
3. Sequentially follow the steps in the following document:

Uninstall and reinstall Malwarebytes using the Malwarebytes Support Tool

Then activate to premium:
