What the installer does
Windows
- Delivered as a standalone setup program (.exe) for x64 and x86.
- Installs for all users on the PC, which normally requires administrator rights.
- Supports unattended install with
/VERYSILENT /NORESTART. - Declared install modes: interactive and silent.
- Registers the
malwarebytes://link protocol. - Upgrades install over the existing version.
macOS
- Delivered as a macOS installer package (.pkg) for Apple silicon and Intel.
- Runs the installer package
Malwarebytes-Mac-5.28.4.4244.pkg; package installers usually ask for an administrator password and can place files anywhere on the system. - The app updates itself, so it may be newer than the version Homebrew lists.
- On uninstall, Homebrew asks the app to quit, stops background services, and forgets installer package receipts.
- A full “zap” removal also deletes up to 9 support, cache and preference locations in your home folder.
Homebrew note shown after install: malwarebytes requires a kernel extension to work. If the installation fails, retry after you enable it in: System Settings → Privacy & Security For more information, refer to vendor documentation or this Apple Technical Note: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/technotes/tn2459/_index.html
