Just a note on this component package 1.0.793.

If you are using Macrium as your backup, you may notice a slowdown in the time to do a backup after applying this component. I did on several machines, not just one. MBAM made improvements to the Ransomware and other things that seem to have had an effect on Macrium. Don't know if it's Image Guardian in Macrium or not. It's something. My normal backup w/verify was running around 3:30. After this MBAM, it consistently ran at 4:15-4:30. Not a huge real time difference, but a huge % difference. I found that by adding Macrium to MBAM's exception list, it instantly dropped the backup/verify time to 3:15-3:30. Right back where it was. No ill effects.

If you get this issue, it's real easy to do. 2 entries in MBAM exception list:

1) Programfiles\Macrium (as a folder)
2) Program Data\Macrium (as a folder, the Service is in here))

Example (ignore the other entries, they are Defender exceptions, or add them too)

Thanks TC, added. No point waiting to see if it happens. Just assume it will and prevent it up front (yeah, I know all about ass u me ).

Thanks for the tip, TC appreciate it.
