Merry Xmas to all the geeks everywhere!

It'd still see the DLL on most malware analyst-detection since it is running in Sandboxie... Regardless of the layers of VM Sandboxie is running within... Same with all major virtualization and subsystem-isolation solutions, though... Malware just blacklists shared libraries and memory mapping behavior, and 99.9% of the solutions do little to nothing to hide...

Years back there was a third-party plugin for Sandboxie that did okay hiding it from IAT, LoadLibrary, and memory scan, but that stopped being updated...

Sandboxie is second to none for zero and nth day exploit infection containment, though... Combine it with Chromium rendering sandboxing and telementry opsec and you'll make the NSA annoyed...

Just a report back. I tried all the suggestions (uninstalling Malewarebytes and the windows tools posted). It still wouldn't update. I also did a little research on the KB ending in 1234 and there were reported problems. I decided to go ahead and do the iso image update keeping all apps and personal files.

It went smoothly and no data was lost. Today it updated a security update and it says I am up to date.
I guess I will see if it does any cumulative update in the future.

THANKS ALL for the suggestions and help!

I was being funny with my post, didn't think you'd take it this serious.
Since it got a bit more serious, and given that I don't know anything about Sandboxie, allow me to ask:

If a malware could tell it was running in a virtual environment, why would that even matter, especially if clipboard or file sharing was not enabled between the Guest and the Host machines?
