Malwarebytes v4.5.34.278 component package 1.0.2102.

From Malwarebytes 4.5 (https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/281762-malwarebytes-45/page/2/#comment-1581873)

Issues fixed

• Minor fix for update logic

Edit Note: When updating, I received the referenced component package.  However, the version number remained unchanged. I've sent a PM to H4V0C regarding the difference.

My computer checked for updates at some minutes after 9am and I just manually checked at 10:30am.
My version listed still says 4.5.34.275 the component package matches what is posted by you, 1.0.2102.

This matches what is posted here

Updated manually this morning.
My "senior eyes" can sometimes see a "fine print" 5 as an 8, so I didn't notice.

After Plodr's post I put on my reading glasses and looked again. I have the same results she reported.

Note that the post at the update link now shows "Posted Tuesday at 11:46 AM (edited)". 🙂
