Re: AdwCleaner 7.0.0.0 XP SP3

Hello,

Yes, it required too much work to support 1.5% of users on deprecated OSes..

However according to some feedbacks it seems that it *may* run on Windows Vista. Feel free to test and share your results!

If you need an official support for those two OSes, please use MB3 instead.

Best regards,

Version 7 FPs (262 elements)

Version 6.047 finds nothing while version 7 finds 262 elements, mostly IE registry keys + one Firefox add-on.

Only new thing I installed recently is Adguard and it is set to work only with IE11. It is not running right now.

Re: Adw Cleaner compatible Windows XP sp3

rufus, I agree will all that you say. many users are probably unaware that the defs are NOT being updated.

I had hoped that someone could have looked at my debug log and said if the problem would be fixed or support for XP was being dropped. Will the new version support XP?

 

Re: Adw Cleaner compatible Windows XP sp3

HillBilly I have been trying to get this problem fixed for months. 1 attempt to fix it failed a couple of months ago and I provided my log from 6.046 and have not heard anything since then.

As the program is written now there is no way of knowing there is a problem unless it is run in debug mode and the debug log is checked.

Re: Can I remove these folders/keys safely with adware cleaner?

Greetings. I don't see a reason why you shouldn't be able to do so. It looks like all the files and registries are not part of natural Windows process. Adwcleaner rarely has false positives. It is good that you are extra careful with what you are removing and how it works, but you have no worries here.

Can I remove these folders/keys safely with adware cleaner?

Need some help please, here is the log, thanks for any assistance:

I am still unable to get updates with 6.047 and XP SP3. The problem continues for me since 6.045

Re: Antivirus Software

Most anti-virus softwares do the job relatively well, they all provide decent features, and most importantly, most of them have a free alternative, for example, IObit, Avast, Comodo, Malwarebytes and so on, you could try them out and see which ones you prefer yourself. And of course, the best product is usually a paid product, so whichever you chose to use, paid versions are more sustained. As ...

Bonjour,

Suivant les indications d'un site pour ne pas le nommer SOSPC j'ai téléchargé un utilitaire via le lien que l'admin a donné.

J'ai exécuté un scan avec la dernière version d'adwcleaner et il me dit que ce logiciel n'est pas bon, enfin qu'il le voit comme une menace.

Précision, malwarebytes ne voit rien, ni les bon soft tel ZHP Clean et ZHP Diag
