RE: Malwarebytes full disk access ?

I have the premium version of Malwarebytes it's saying I should allow 'full disk access for detections of all threats' is this safe to do?

Yes. If malware or adware you've installed is located in a normally protected part of the drive, it will never be able to find it unless it can search everywhere.
