For People Who Think Everything Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware is really virus..
Wake up Pls..There are a lot of False Positives..This is one of them..If u Look on youtube for Adwcleaner There are a lot of videos teaching how to use it..Showing this specific website to download.
Bonjour,
Les 2 dernières versions suppriment l'historique de "Windows Update".....
Pour être certaine de ce que j’affirme, j'ai fait 2 fois un restaure système. Sur ma restauration il y a des dates avec des mises à jours et après avoir utiliser "AdwCleaner", il n'y a plus aucune dates disponibles. Le seul moyen de les consulter est de passer par le "Programmes et fonctionnalités".
Je suis avec Windows 7 pro 64....
Bonne journée

@Etalaz You can execute AdwCleaner from anywhere you want.
Hi,
is it necessary to run Adwcleaner from the Desktop?
can i execute it for instance from something like C:\Downloads?
Thanks!
@merida72 It's a false positive. AdwCleaner do not come with viruses.
@keepon You can uninstall AdwCleaner thanks to his uninstall button available from his interface (just launch AdwCleaner, you'll see it).
@tonypl6 Thank you!

Bonjour,
Ajoutez Adwcleaner dans les exceptions de votre antivirus et il ne sera plus bloqué
La version AdwCleaner v.4.108 : avast le bloque impossible de sans servir et il le supprime et impossible de le retéléchargé apres il le bloque directe :( en espérant bientôt un correctif cordialement
My adwcleaner failed to remove Vosteran Search which pops up 3 tabs for every one chrome tab. I haven't downloaded any private or personal files on this new computer.....only windows and McAfee updates have been entered. McAfee sent me to adwcleaner. Interesting but also not successful. Help.
I had a computer that was infected with a browser hijacking called gamersinfo.org but Adwcleaner didn't pick it up. Maybe you haven't added it to the database so would really appriciate if you did.
