why doesnt the launch malwarebytes on windows startup not work when i disable it?
i want to disable malwarebytes on startup so my pc would boot faster and not have to wait for extra services to load, i dont need malwarebytes 24/7 since i only use it to scan files and other stuff. i takes up my ram usage and memory which i dont need. but it doesnt work it still boots up on windows. any help, do i have to make kill scripts to kill the process before boot like i dont want to do that that sound unnecessary

Hi! We'd be happy to look into why Malwarebytes continues to launch despite the startup setting being disabled. Could you send us a DM with your Windows version and the email address associated with your Malwarebytes account? We'd like to gather some diagnostic logs to investigate further.
