Malwarebytes

I upgraded to Malwarebytes Premium on my Mac and "allowed full disc" access. My hard drive crashed! I had to erase and restore my hard drive. Now I hesitate to even install the upgraded Malwarebytes software in the free version, which also is asking for "full disc access." Is there a conflict between Malwarebytes and Apple? Do I even need Malwarebytes protection?

You don't need the pro version which runs constantly in the background. I don't have it running in the background as it uses system resources and only run it if I think I might have installed adware or malware.
