The application in the Orlando-folder is accessible now and starts but I have to wait for the operator to check it in deep,

I hope it is a sunny sunday even in your place! regards

Re: Folder deleted by mistake

Hello,

Is it working again now?

I've removed the detection. Can you confirm that AdwCleaner is no longer trying to remove these folders? (Just share me the scan logfile, it should be enough)
