Xplode is working on version 5.000 that will support Microsoft OS from XP up to 10.
We're working on a new forum, it will be released during the middle of August.
It gets a critical error in windows 10. Cortana And start menu arent working. Sign out to fix it. You should add Cortana and start menu to the Allowed Items In Adwcleaner :)
Sadly..after update to new version program stop working, i dont have idea why?
Now i cant scan any longer :(
Quand Windows 10 sortira avec Candy Crush Saga préinstallé (http://www.pcworld.com/article/2922508/windows-10-will-ship-with-candy-crush-saga-preinstalled.html), par pitié, si AdwCleaner pouvait prendre en charge sa suppression. Coucou Xplode, est-ce que tu pourrais le faire, ce serait méga-génial de ta part. Comme j'ai des besoins vastes (BluRay 3D, Eye-tracking, etc.) de geeks, seul l'OS Windows est compatible avec mes intérêts, et si ce "Windows 7 2.0" venait à être sali, j'en serais très triste.
When you received message for an outdate version of AdwCleanerjust hit cancel and now the software is working fine
Ever since I downloaded 4.2 a few weeks ago, this program has stopped working: All three of my computers get hung up somewhere in cleaning, usually on "cleaning web browsers." Then my computer becomes unresponsive and needs to be shut down. On two of my computers, I was able to use older versions, but they're months old.
love adwcleaner, but it doesn't recognize screenconnect as a legitimate program. it removed my ability to access the computer I was working on! can screenconnect be added to the allowed programs asap?
I find many legitimate items flagged by AdwCleaner. Blindly clicking on Clean (now Cleaning???) is asking for trouble.
Hola, Hotspot Shield, YTD YouTube Downloader, AVG LinkScanner, etc. are not adware. They should not be deleted by AdwCleaner.
False positives (it's a legitimate VPN extension):
C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Hola
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Chrome\Extensions\ncffjdbbodifgldkcbhmiiljfcbgjag
If I remember correctly there's also a false positive for the Hola Unblocker Firefox add-on. However, the Firefox add-on stopped working for me - possibly due to AdwCleaner cleaning away files needed for it to work - and re-installing it doesn't help, so I can't submit a report for that add-on. The add-on can be installed from here if anyone wants to have a look at it: http://hola.org/

Here are most of the entries I could find. I believe the Hotspot Shield drivers might be the culprit. One user had a driver inside Device Manager. Replacing that driver with one from another working computer seems to have corrected the connection issue.
