adwclean 5.031 crashing on XP/SP3

Hi,

This is a known bug and we're currently working on it.

Could you try with this debug version : http://sd-1.archive-host.com/membres/up/17959594961240255/AdwCleaner_DBG.exe and tell us if that works ?

Regards

Same here. My windows xp pro sp3 crash too with latest version AdwCleaner. The solution is delete registry AdwCleaner then the crash gone but everytime you run AdwCleaner you must delete the AdwCleaner registry first. I try version 3 with no crash reported.

Yes, the debug version runs properly & finishes normally.

I confirmed the debug version run perfectly. Nice fix. Thx.

The debug version worked for me.  Thanks!

The debug version works!

Many thanks

I had downloaded 5.031, ran it and it worked. Tried it immediately for a 2nd time and it crashed. Renamed it to adwcleaner.exe and it crashed. Tried it in safe mode with networking and it crashed. The debug version of 5.031 has worked multiple times in a row with no problem so far

Thanks!

Yep, it's a random bug !

Even the DBG version is not good...

Hello,

Could you please download v5.032 ( available on Toolslib ) and tell me if this version is working ? ( Don't hesitate to try it on multiple XP computers and from multiple locations. )

Regards.

5.032 runs & completes successfully on my XP/SP3 machine. 

Hi,

Appears good !

Tested successfully with 4 PC's running XP Pro SP3...

Thanks. I'll wait for some more answers but I think this bug is solved :-)

Running XP SP3. downloaded 5.032 to D:\Downloads and created a desktop shortcut and ran it from desktop shortcut, it found a SweetIM entry in the registry. Ran cleaning and got a BSOD, PC ran scandisk and everything was OK. PC rebooted and showed log for deleted registry entry. This BSOD also happened on previous versions.

Ran it from D:\Downloads it found nothing and completed fine.

Ran it from Quick Launch shortcut, it found nothing and completed fine. Some previous versions would not run at all from Quick Launch shortcut.
