If at first you don’t succeed; call it version 1.0

Saw that.
I don't think that "minor issue" relates to this thread.
This thread is about the situation where the malware actually blocks the user from attempting to install or run MBAM.
This happens quite a lot, depending on the malware.

There was a frequent start up problem whenever Malwarebytes removed a rootkit. I though this topic referred to it.
Thanks for the clarification

There are many instances where MBAM does not start.
