I just hope that my observations may help in resolving the issue even for the particular settings I have.

At the moment I do not want to disable fast boot or enable UAC. That may not be related though it's just a thought I had after recalling how DoR works so it might be worth a look if the issue does return again. It's possible that this is related, especially if Malwarebytes had removed something prior to reboot that it detected as it runs a cleanup routine on restart (Malwarebytes Delete on Reboot (DoR) technology) and it's possible that if it isn't able to run the cleanup routine normally on reboot due to permissions, that it may result in this behavior (normally in those cases you'd receive a UAC prompt asking you to allow Malwarebytes to run as I recall, though it shouldn't continue running in the background when it works properly it should just perform its cleanup and then terminate itself).

You can check as well as disable it if it is on by following the instructions in the articles here and here as well as learn a bit more about how and why this new feature tends to cause issues at time.Д«y the way, I just happened to take another look at the logs you posted originally and just noticed that you have User Account Control partially disabled: Thanks everyone for your help.Дo you have fast startup enabled by any chance? The reason I ask is because there are known issues with Malwarebytes (as well as many other applications) when fast startup is enabled. If it happens again, I'll take a log and come back. After I did the repair with support tool, it hasn't occurred again. Also, it has happened two times in a row, but not every time.

I gave above some examples of when I've noticed it happened (windows updates, antivirus updates, driver updates). Have you noticed the issue occur with both a restart (Start -> Power -> Restart) and shut down/power on (Start -> Power -> Shut down -> Power back on) or just one of those options? When the issue does occur and you find Malwarebytes starts up with Windows despite the setting being set to Off, what happens when you startup the machine again? Does the same behaviour occur or is it only exhibited with one startup at a time?
