AdwCleaner will not install on Win10 64-bit PC

When trying to install versions 7.0.70 and the current 7.0.8.0 I get an error stating,       "This app can't run on your PC. To find a version for your PC, check with the software publisher" This happens if I try to install as administrator, u...

In the last update of Windows 10, they upgraded Windows defender. Especially the Exploit protection. Many people do the AdwCleaner dowload but are unable to run the program.

Finally!  Thank you.  I don't know what the problem was, but the links from the download page did not work.

The one you gave me did.  Regards, Rick.

Please take a look at the "Trigger an update" section, here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/definitions

Thanks.

So nobody can tell me why the newly released update to 7.0.8.0 will not download to my PC.  Is this update even real?  Malwarebytes release history does not mention anything other than 7.0.7.0. ANYBODY?????

Hello,

I don't use Malwarebytes after the huge changes. Count on Adw, JRT,  & MBAE. I hope you live long, so Corporate won't take control.

What "huge changes" are you referring to?

System Restore Point. Was taking up to much space for Microsoft, so they cut its abilities. Appears you have to use 3rd Party, Restore Point Creator. You must make it ahead o...

Re: adwcleaner

Greetings,

AdwCleaner 7.x no longer works on Windows XP machines. If that's what you were asking?

Please try the 6th branch (no longer updated): https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/files/851/

Also, you could give a try to Malwarebytes (which is still compatible with Windows XP): https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/309-malwarebytes/
