Been looking for the "Free" version, but can't find it.
Is it gone ? 'Free Download' is used to trick you into the 14 trial
version.
Old sites for the Original FREE VERSION just lead to the
14 day thing. Circular.
Am I right ?

MB became confusing some time back when they went from a simple scan on
demand to including every other anti-virus thing in a suite.
Download and install the free version but don't check the box for "start
14 day trial", or what ever it says... I forgot exactly.
Also, in Setup / Application, be sure to turn off EVERYTHING, otherwise
it will continually report back to their home planet.
I cannot find the "Free Version" on Google.
Whatever Google comes up with turns out to be the 14 Day trial thing !
That is why I am asking if that is gone ?
Even the Google links that are OLDER still come up with the 14 day thing.
If I am missing something, please tell me !
It looks like you get 14 days of Malwarebytes Premium for free; if you
don't buy it then all the premium features are disabled and you're
left with the free version that just disinfects:
https://www.malwarebytes.com/trial/
- For 14 days, Malwarebytes for Window will keep malware from
infecting your computer for free. After that, it reverts to a limited
scanner.
- TRIAL PERIOD
Prevent malware from infecting your computer for 14 days with
real-time protection, anti-ransomware technology, and malicious
website blocking.
- DO NOTHING
Malwarebytes for Windows reverts to a manual scanner that detects and
cleans up malware infections only when you run a scan. You can upgrade
to the premium version any time.
Did earlier versions of malwarebytes free offer any kind of protection
or was it strictly an after-the-fact find & remove malware product?

Previously, if I remember correctly, there were 2 versions: FREE and
PREMIUM.
Now, however, it looks like they turned on the Premium with the FREE
version hoping to lure a few more fish to their bottom-line.
