I believe this is a false positive detection and it is related to Toolbar Buttons add-on.

URGENT -- Attn: AdWare Developer -- MAJOR Bug Report for v5.019
I just downloaded and attempted to run the current version...but AdWare fails to run and crashes before opening.
Here is what happens:
1. Open File window opens after clicking on the .exe file.
2. Clicking Run on Open File window results in a window opening with an error message.
3. The error message simply states AdWare Cleaner encountered an unknown problem, etc. The error window offers a Debug button. I simply closed it out.
4. I ran version 4.2xx. It opened and worked fine.
NEXT ISSUE: v4.2xx identified about 11 registry keys as a threat. After manually locating each registry key, all registry key were associated with variations of "Download.SwInstaller" and "NCTAudioFile2.DLL". Extensive Google searching didn't uncover any meaningful info about the nature of those two 'things'. So, I didn't let Adware delete them. DO YOU KNOW WHY ADWARE PEGGED THOSE REGISTRY KEYS AS THREATS?
*** Sir Xplode, I wish to profusely thank you for sharing Adware with the world. Your Adware saved my PC more than once over the years. Bless you!
@SPARTACUS Do not blame changelog AdwCleaner I have been using this program since the "Beta" version never had a problem and wish to thank the developer for this program this and Malwarebytes has saved me a lot of bs excespcially dloadin torrent files such as games and software you never know what viruses and malware are hiding in these files . And back to @SPARTACUS your "other perfectly good programs "you say you had with your chrome extensions you should of unchecked them before running clean setting and I believe there is a pop up could be wrong but if my mem serves me right a pop up comes up after scanning files before clean it says pls uncheck files and extensions you wish to keep I always have to do this cause I have a bunch of "PUP" but other first time users pls disregard this person comment I've been using for years and love this program
@SPARTACUS Sorry that it happened. What was these "other perfectly good programs" that AdwCleaner removed ? I also insists that we recommend to ask for help on our support forum while using such a tool. AdwCleaner let you choose what elements you want to remove. Finally, you can always easily restore deleted files by using the quarantine.
Regards.

Is there a bug in 5,008 it advises to delete files in c:/program data/product data which contains loads of files ?
Bonjour. et merci pour cette mise à jour.
Depuis la version 5.008, Adwcleaner me trouve comme fichier qui appartient à l'antivirus Avira :
C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\4blb7z9p.default\searchplugins\avira-safesearch.xml
Est-ce un faux positif ? ou pas ?
D'avance merci.
Here is the translation to English. I just used Google.
Then I took a screen shot of WinUpdateFix. The you can change the instruction boxes to English. Then print out the altered picture and use that for reference.

I love this tool!
I've donated a couple of times.
Now, I would like to make you an offer for making a Bulgarian translation for it. Of course free of charge, just for the contribution.
And I'd like to ask, why not include all the translators name in a tab in your app and/or in the app's description. Let me show you an example:
- The DD-WRT project, in every firmware there is a link in the upper left where you can get more information about the project, the current version and all its translators. Here is an online demo page: https://www.dd-wrt.com/demo/About.htm
You can add a "change language" menu with the translators names in your toolstrip. I believe it is hard to find the change language menu. I can see that you post a lot of language packs updates in the change log, but I can't find a way to change the language in reality. Maybe make it a little bit easier or include the procedure for changing the language in your online manual.
I hope you'll contact me soon. (toolslib account, gmail email or facebook profile)
Keep up the good work! Thanks.
Thank group development.
You have one tool user support is great. However, recently I saw many Adware has improved faster, harder to remove and seek more, we create multiple folders and files in the% Appdata% and programdata that Adwcleaner not removed thoroughly, besides lots other offer inserted directly to the browser, it's difficult to find the file, you have any plans for this problem yet?
Hopefully we will soon be put into the software to uninstall completely. Good luck.
