Good afternoon,
Downloaded version 6.020, shut all other programmes, ran adwcleaner "scan" then selected "clean" but it stopped responding on "clean files". Shut programme using Task Manager.
Repeated process, same result.
Rebooted and repeated process. Same result.
Windows Vista. Any ideas?
Awesome work! I have a few things to mention though:
AdwCleaner keeps detecting SereneScreen's Marine Aquarium as a problem. This is a legit screensaver I paid for. Please configure it to stop detecting this as a problem. Also HCKU\Software\SlimWare Utilities are not adware / malware or any kind of problem either - it's a program called AVG Driver Updater - it can be downloaded from here: http://www.avg.com/us-en/avg-driver-updater
It's also strange that the AVG PC Tuneup Task Background Maintenance is detected under Scheduled Tasks. AVG PC Tuneup is a legitimate optimization suite that has the to clean registry , temporary files and broken shortcuts and defrag in the background. It's a legit program I installed myself and that can be downloaded from AVG.com.
Other than that, it's a great program. PLEASE:
1. Provide a "Send Feedback / Report incorrect detections" option in the program.
2. Provide the option to have an exclusion list and exclude incorrect detections from being re-detected in future scans, as unchecking every single detail in every single tab gets tiresome.
Keep up the great work!
Just downloaded this software and already its as buggy as hell:
AutoIt Error.
Line 10570 (file "C:\Users\Peter\Desktop\adware_6.000.exe")
Error: Variable used without being declared.
Can't get it to work, thanks for the headache.
I had some nasty adware (called popunderclick or something of the like) and AVG was doing nothing about it. Looked up some adware cleaners and this popped up. It works great and runs smoothly! Highly recommended!!
Hi, I have an issue when i run "AdwCleaner 5.201". Whenever I run this particular version, my computer just hangs for few seconds, then starts functioning again. However, the AdwCleaner software doesn't start at all. I tried running the software several times. Same thing happens every time I try running the software. I downloaded twice again, after deleting the previous files, but to no avail. I also deleted all the temporary files, restarted the system, but was of no help.
I would like to know if the same thing or anything similar has happened to anyone and how was it resolved. Any help would really be appreciated. Thank you.
i hope this is ligit. looks ligit. i get fake blue screen scams sometimes and usually end task and close the browser fixes it. but recently its getting more frequent and annoying so i downloaded this software. didn't find any malware but i'll keep scanning periodically to see if it catches anything.
I Love the AdwCleaner program it got rid of PUP that I did everything to get rid of it. I ran this program and it cleaned out my computer and got rid of infect files and programs that was not needed or infected. Thank God for this program. The Best there is. Thank you for having it has a free program.
Bonjour,
J'ai téléchargé AdwCleaner 5.116 plusieurs fois et, à chaque fois, lorsque je le lance, mon ordi m'affiche :"base de données corrompue".
La dernière version que j'ai pu utiliser sans problème est la 5.110.
Avez-vous une explication à mon problème ?
Mon système d'exploitation : XP SP3 (Windows Embedded POSReady 2009 mis à jour régulièrement)
Cordialement
MMichel
