Hi Kenn, Double checked myself – privacy issues were deleted at once after install without payment. There might be a wait period for other issues depending on their severity for hard parasites.
This is the same for couple years already, but people advertising other removers/antiviruses sometimes “forget” to update their own guides, so you might have read it there.

Well, It is not completely true.
The issue here is that if Malwarebytes detects and quarantines program, parts of it CAN NOT be uninstalled by their own uninstaller. So you either make exception in Malwarebytes ( and then run uninstaller), which is in fact advisable way for program, that is removed normally, or just delete it from Malwarebytes and (possibly) delete remaining traces with other programs.

The problem with Malwarebytes is that it focuses on Potentially Unwanted Programs ( that have legitimate uses) rather than real malware, so it performs very poorly compared to other antiviruses against real parasites, thus lots of common programs are included to boost their sales. I no longer trust their detections, especially if VirusTotal lists them & similar applications alone as detecting particular “parasite”.

Uninstaller programs leave “traces” that are easy to detect but in most cases are harmless (non-executable). That might be cookies, some sort of temporary files, etc. It is not common for executable files to be left after uninstall.

Usually, it removes without problem. But try revouninstaller, or contact restoro support.
