I concurr. I'm running WIndows Version 7 Ultimate.
I run JRT before hand - it executes without issue.
Then run ADWCLEANER and the machine is crashing with Blue Screen of Death!
URGENT -- Attn: AdWare Developer -- MAJOR Bug Report for v5.019
I just downloaded and attempted to run the current version...but AdWare fails to run and crashes before opening.
Here is what happens:
1. Open File window opens after clicking on the .exe file.
2. Clicking Run on Open File window results in a window opening with an error message.
3. The error message simply states AdWare Cleaner encountered an unknown problem, etc. The error window offers a Debug button. I simply closed it out.
4. I ran version 4.2xx. It opened and worked fine.
NEXT ISSUE: v4.2xx identified about 11 registry keys as a threat. After manually locating each registry key, all registry key were associated with variations of "Download.SwInstaller" and "NCTAudioFile2.DLL". Extensive Google searching didn't uncover any meaningful info about the nature of those two 'things'. So, I didn't let Adware delete them. DO YOU KNOW WHY ADWARE PEGGED THOSE REGISTRY KEYS AS THREATS?
*** Sir Xplode, I wish to profusely thank you for sharing Adware with the world. Your Adware saved my PC more than once over the years. Bless you!
Important :
Version 5 .018 détecté par Avast comme trojan !!
pareil pour le parefeu windows ...!
Version 5.018 wird derzeit von Avast! Free als Malware erkannt und am Start gehindert. Die Meldung lautet Win32:Evo-gen [Susp]. Ich hab das mal als False Positive gemeldet.
@SPARTACUS Do not blame changelog AdwCleaner I have been using this program since the "Beta" version never had a problem and wish to thank the developer for this program this and Malwarebytes has saved me a lot of bs excespcially dloadin torrent files such as games and software you never know what viruses and malware are hiding in these files . And back to @SPARTACUS your "other perfectly good programs "you say you had with your chrome extensions you should of unchecked them before running clean setting and I believe there is a pop up could be wrong but if my mem serves me right a pop up comes up after scanning files before clean it says pls uncheck files and extensions you wish to keep I always have to do this cause I have a bunch of "PUP" but other first time users pls disregard this person comment I've been using for years and love this program
Version 5.013 is moving any folder named as 'AP' to quarantine. My whole company is using AP as short form for Accounts payable.
I just cleaned up a dozen of them :( Thank God i was able recover them from quarantine

Est-ce bien normal ? Faux positifs ?
Pour l'instant, dans le doute, je les conserve.
Avez-vous un avis ?
Merci d'avance.

I'm very frustrated right now, firstly, this program made me a glitch in my whole laptop which it automatically organizes all the icons, and folders of my computer and I cannot organize it manual no matter if I > right click in desktop and uncheck autoarrange, it stills doesn't let me organize my computer manually.
This started to happened in the version 5.008, and I needed to reinstall my laptop without knowing that this error was caused by AdwCleaner, after I reinstalled my laptop, I downloaded AdwCleaner and now I'm stuck again with this error, help please, this program modifies my computer as if it were a hacker/pishing software, that is the reality.

C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\ProductData il me dit supprimer quand je fais un nettoyage et quand je repasse le scan il me trouve tjr pareil et ne supprime rien en faite

Bonjour. et merci pour cette mise à jour.
Depuis la version 5.008, Adwcleaner me trouve comme fichier qui appartient à l'antivirus Avira :
C:\Users\xxxxxx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\4blb7z9p.default\searchplugins\avira-safesearch.xml
Est-ce un faux positif ? ou pas ?
D'avance merci.
