Hi,

I have been using Adwcleaner for quite some time and had always done the job well. But recently since the version 5.009 have noticed that in middle of scanning it suddenly stops and shows an error code as shown by the image. After pressing ok the program stops too and the same happens after restarting it. I am now using the latest version but the same is happening.

Anyone know how I could fix this?

Thanks in advance

Ok, I don't really know why it doesn't create this file but .. anyway, I will put a fix in v5.020 for this error. Thanks again for your help.

Re: AdwCleaner suddenly stops

Ok, I think we can try something.

Open a CMD prompt ( Start -> cmd.exe ) , then type :

for %x in (c:\windows\system32\*.dll) do regsvr32 %x /s

Press [Enter] , wait until it's finished then try running the current AdwCleaner version ( this one : https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/ )

Do you have the error message?

Regards,

Hi,

I ran the command and afterwards ran the program, it did not show an error. It seems to be fixed now, right?

Hello,

Yes, so it was a problem with an unregistered DLL on your computer. I will keep this command in case someone faces the same problem.

Re: AdwCleaner suddenly stops

Hi,

Can you run it in DEBUG mode ( click "Options" -> "Activate debug mode" ) then post the content of the file called AdwCleaner_dbg_xxx.log located at C:\AdwCleaner
