Greetings AdWareCleaner Users & Developers: I have QUESTIONS please - How come my adwcleaner as an installed application under Vista isn't listed under my "All Programs"? ... How Come adwcleaner deletes installed apps I paid for like my Paretologic Registry Cleaner and its PCHA? Are Registry Cleaners as a group considered potential adware or malware? ... Are they even worth having? Why is there even a tab for Registry Cleaner on AdWareCleaner? ... How come there isn't a preview screen that I can edit before AdwCleaner deletes or quarantines its targeted folders or files? ... The old version of AdWareCleaner I had was installed on my desktop, how come the new one isn't? ... Is there any relationship between AdwareCleaner and MalWareBytes? How can I get back deleted or quarantined applications, files, and folders? Is there a help file I can read to spare us all from my tedious annoying questions? Instead of donating i would prefer a paid application I could buy. Thank you. (and can you post answers to PeterR5@Hotmail.com with subject line "AdWareCleaner Queries")

Hi--I downloaded AdwCleaner and it did a great job. However, after running it the first time (at the end of the Install process), I found no desktop icon nor an executable file that I could run. Please help me figure this out. Thanks.

Help please - I run regularly AdwCleaner (most up to date) and I always find items flagged in Chrome - I click on the clean button and after rebooting I found the following:

I assume the Chrome items are delete. I run AdwCleaner again, and they seem to be gone. If I run again AwdCleaner a few hours later, the items are back. Where are they coming from? How can I clean them permanently? I do not have ask.com nor aol.com. Please, help.
Contact at pady5star@gmail.com - thanks
