When I open Malwarebytes the Dashboard says I am running 3.4.4 (free version) and that updates are 'current'. My concern is even higher when I look up the change log for 3.4.4 and there is no mention of the new versions being a forced 'trial'.
Since the 'trial' was underhanded, I am once again concerned that I might again be forced into a new 'trial' and if they keep doing this, I may lose use of the free program, which is all I require at this point.
I was relieved when it went back to the 'free' version, but as soon as that happened I immediately get daily notifications requesting to update to 3.4.5. Since this 'trial' was forced on me without my knowledge or permission I was concerned that if I didn't buy a premium I would lose all use. However, it did not inform me that it would remove my free version and force me into a 'trial'.
