Re: Can anyone help me identify if any of these deleted registry keys are essential

Greetings,

First of all, sorry for the late answer.

Can you share the scan logfile as well? Thanks.

Regards.

Re: Did AdwCleaner Remove Required Registry Files?

Thanks John! That is reassuring. Do you think you could check about the files for another computer of mine? I just want to be sure that the registry will be okay.

Is this a false positive?

Hello, today after updating adwcleaner to the new version, has detected some PUPs (I leave you the registry of the scan and the cleaning). After reboot, I ran adwcleaner again and the PUPs are still there.

I have researched a bit about these addresses, and it seems that they are the default addresses that the router from my internet company provides. Each time I clean them, when I reconnect to...

redémarrage impossible après passage de tweaning

Bonjour à tous,

Ayant un problème logiciel sur mon clavier, j'ai lancé windows repair de tweaking.com. Au redémarrage le lancement échoue et toutes les options proposées aussi. Et je ne peux plus accéder à la commande "entrée". Je n'ai pas de disque de windows 10 et, de toute façon, je ne peux pas modifier l'ordre de démarrage n'ayant pas accès à "entrée".

Did AdwCleaner Remove Required Registry Files?

In hopes of making my two computers as safe as can be I went ahead and removed the various files that AdwCleaner detected in a scan. However, because I had issues with my computer's hardrive becoming corrupt recently, I'm worried that some of the registry files that were deleted might in fact be necessary ones. Can someone please let me know if this is the case? I've posted the content of the l...

Re: False Positive v7?

Upon further investigation, this looks like malware's registry file that wasn't removed correctly, but the rest of the issue was

That seems rather unlikely, because the registery key was the only thing that was detected. To reiterate, before AdwCleaner's database update of August 25 my Adwcleaner scans (and other scans for that matter) were clean. In addition, other virusscanners weren't abl...

Is anyone from the AdwCleaner team able to comment about this yet?


SWBUser, 2017-08-29 20:09:30 (UTC)

It would be nice wouldn't it? I am solving this myself, by uninstalling AdwCleaner and not recommending it to those requesting help on a forum where I am a mod. Too bad, very good tool, one of the best for removing PUP's but not going to sacrifice SpywareBlaster's ability to block them so ...
