Problema con el sonido.

Hola. Despues de haber utilizado la ultima version de ADWCLEANER en windows 10 14393 222 x64 Enterprise hace unos dias, tengo problemas con el sistema de sonido.

Re: Can't delete UCGuard

pedromatt,

 

1) Do  you have installed Driver Booster? If yes, then I advise you to uninstall.

Re: A whole lot of damage

Thanks for your reply. There was one more thing that wasn't working that I forgot to mention, the HP Simple Pass fingerprint reader for logging in. There may have been more.

Re: Adwcleaner false positive? SOLVED

ran a registry cleaner to clean up some dead software links etc.  this seemed to remove that registry entry that was throwing off adwcleaner.  reran adwcleaner and there are now no threats picked up.
