When you’re setting up a new PC or looking for an app you already know, the Microsoft Store is often the easiest place to start. It’s built into Windows and lets you find, install, and update apps in one place. Malwarebytes for Windows is now available there too.

Malwarebytes for Windows is still available from our website and trusted partners. The Microsoft Store simply gives you another trusted way to get it.

If you’ve ever helped someone set up a new PC over the phone, you’ll know how much simpler it is to say, “Open the Microsoft Store, search for Malwarebytes, and click Get.” There are no web addresses to type, and no worrying whether you’ve landed on the right download page.

That’s important because cybercriminals use fake download pages and bogus security software to trick people into installing malware instead of the product they intended to download. Searching for Malwarebytes in the Microsoft Store gives you another straightforward way to make sure you are installing the genuine app.
