Greetings AdWareCleaner Users & Developers: I have QUESTIONS please - How come my adwcleaner as an installed application under Vista isn't listed under my "All Programs"? ... How Come adwcleaner deletes installed apps I paid for like my Paretologic Registry Cleaner and its PCHA? Are Registry Cleaners as a group considered potential adware or malware? ... Are they even worth having? Why is there even a tab for Registry Cleaner on AdWareCleaner? ... How come there isn't a preview screen that I can edit before AdwCleaner deletes or quarantines its targeted folders or files? ... The old version of AdWareCleaner I had was installed on my desktop, how come the new one isn't? ... Is there any relationship between AdwareCleaner and MalWareBytes? How can I get back deleted or quarantined applications, files, and folders? Is there a help file I can read to spare us all from my tedious annoying questions? Instead of donating i would prefer a paid application I could buy. Thank you. (and can you post answers to PeterR5@Hotmail.com with subject line "AdWareCleaner Queries")

Bonsoir,
Il y a un problème avec la dernière version 3.213, celle-ci supprime le
Dossier Présent : C:\Users\Eden\Documents\Aimersoft Video Converter Ultimate
Et dès que l'on réutilise le logiciel, le même dossier se recrée et AdwCleaner signal indéfiniment ce même dossier.

Cette version détecte aussi ceci: Fichier Présent : C:\Windows\SysWOW64\RegistryHelperLM.ocx
Que la version précédente ne signalait pas......J'espère que je ne pas fait une erreur en acceptant le nettoyage de ce dernier fichier!!!!

Bonne soirée

Edelweiss

I found AdwCleaner to be awesome, thank you very much! But I also found that even after running it, if I reinstalled Chrome, the speedial redirect would be reinstalled.

I found the speedial browser redirect also inserts a key into the Windows registry that causes Chrome to reinstall speedial whenever Chrome is reinstalled itself.

Details here:
https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/external_extensions

The key on my Win 7 / 64 machine is
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Chrome\Extensions\bakijjialdiiboeaknfpmflphhmljfkd

Bonjour,
Je me suis inscrit pour remercier l’auteur de cet outil gratuit simple et efficace qui m’a permis de nettoyer rapidement et sans dommages mon navigateur Firefox de la fenêtre parasite Start.qone8.com.
J’avais nettoyé tout le registry sans sucés.
Bravo et encore merci
Cordialement

Help please - I run regularly AdwCleaner (most up to date) and I always find items flagged in Chrome - I click on the clean button and after rebooting I found the following:

AdwCleaner[S21].txt - [1397 octets] - [19/05/2014 13:19:25]

I assume the Chrome items are delete. I run AdwCleaner again, and they seem to be gone. If I run again AwdCleaner a few hours later, the items are back. Where are they coming from? How can I clean them permanently? I do not have ask.com nor aol.com. Please, help.
Contact at pady5star@gmail.com - thanks
