#MALWAREBYTES SCAN FOR ROOTKITS OPTION PC#
Obviously it is totally up to you if you wish to continue performing custom/full scans, however I've worked for Malwarebytes for nearly 8 years and was a longtime Malwarebytes user before that and I have never seen a case, including when I was a PC repair technician dealing with infected systems that I had to repair and clean, that it was necessary to use any other scan type in Malwarebytes other than the Threat scan (formerly known as the Quick scan in previous Malwarebytes versions when it was known as Malwarebytes Anti-Malware/Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware).Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is a powerful and effective program made to remove various types of malware agents from infected computers, such as viruses, Trojans, worms, dialers and rootkits. Likewise, whenever the Malwarebytes Research team discovers any new locations being used by any infections, they add those locations to Malwarebytes via database updates so that they are checked by the Threat scan automatically along with all of the others so it doesn't even require a new product release to modify where the Threat scan looks for threats.

All locations where a rootkit could be active are already checked in the Threat scan automatically when rootkit scanning is enabled, plus, the other elements of the Threat scan such as looking at all loading points on the registry as well as all loaded processes, services, drivers and modules (DLLs etc.) along with its heuristics and other detection tech that looks for malware in all of the places where it likes to install and hide will ensure that if a rootkit is present on the system that Malwarebytes is capable of detecting, that it will be caught by the Threat scan when you have rootkit scanning enabled. In fact, specifically with regards to rootkits, since they must use drivers and/or the boot files/boot partition of your Windows system drive to be able to hide themselves (which is what makes them rootkits, technically speaking), it's pretty much a waste of time and energy to perform a rootkit scan across an entire drive. Just to add, the rootkit scan, much like the Threat scan itself, was specifically engineered to look in all of the places where threats (in this case, particularly rootkits) would install on your system.
