Hello,
problem solved by saving AdwCleaner 7.1.1. and in order to open it, I added item to TaskBar. As last step version 7.1.0. was deleted
Thank you and best regards.
Greetings,
Can you give us some more details - Why are you unable to start AdwCleaner 7.1.1?
Thanks.
Hi,
running the 7.1.0 version, question "would you like to download update 7.1.1" pops up. Indeed it is possible to save the new version, but it is not possible to open 7.1.1. Hence the popup asking for installation of 7.1.1.appears every time when starting a scan. Would be grateful to receive an advice as to how 7.1.1. can be installed
Thank you and best regrds
