I hope this clears up some confusion... Please note that as of the time of writing this message (January - 16th - 2017) Combofix does not currently support windows 10. And hasn't since the release of windows 10. It's unknown if Combofix will ever support windows 10 or not. The supported operating systems are: Windows XP/Vista/7/8.
I really appreciate what you do with this program. It's one hell of a program. I do have a suggestion, though:
I've noticed that, the more up-to-date it is, the slower it becomes...it takes quite some time for it to scan a system, despite using SSDs.
Could you split the scanning process among 4+ cores of the CPU so that the scanning speed is improved? Could you give the software 4 instances with Affinity specifically set to a CPU core? I believe doing that may improve its scanning time, especially on SSDs (which are usually the ones holding the entire Windows installation -> and this last one is what most infection target (Users folder, Windows, Program Data...)
Thank you again for your work on this great tool! No wonder it has so many millions of downloads
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.
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

THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH FOR PROVIDING this superb TOOL. I sincerely recommend it to everyone who wants to get rid of the "other instance is running" popup every time you start your Computer because of that "Web Companion” virus that sneaks into your system a s a parasite alongside other apps on the web. On top of wiping away that parasitical Web Companion Crap, AdwCLEARNER is a truly user friendly tool to clean up all kinds of nasty stuff that is floating around on the internet.
Добрый день, большое спасибо за замечательную программу AdwCleaner. И просьба сделать в программе проверку *.lnk файлов браузеров (не только Internet Explorer) по пути c:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\System Tools\, c:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\StartMenu\, c:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar\, c:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\, поскольку в свойствах *.lnk после вирусов часто подменяется путь на другой. Спасибо за внимание.
hi
Have the same key like the user "BakuDM" (see below) on my 3 laptops (maybe a false/positive-detection) :
Schlüssel Gefunden : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\AuthRoot\Certificates\3679CA35668772304D30A5FB873B0FA77BB70D54
see yahhhh....!
For some reason after the last update it's detecting 2 Registry entries and one of them is related to Windows Defender, so I suppose it is a false positive.
Key Found : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\AuthRoot\Certificates\3679CA35668772304D30A5FB873B0FA77BB70D54
Key Found : HKLM\SOFTWARE\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\Image File Execution Options\MsMpEng.exe
I've run this software on even very heavily infected systems and its amazing how quickly and effective AdwCleaner removes even the worst adware. Even adware that could not be removed with other software got cleaned by this.

Still an issue with the above mentioned page is not resolved, I try 10 times adware scan and it is still there!!!
Why adware not removing this from my chrome and internet Explorer browser????
Because it holds my browser whenever I start my browser it comes with a search page. Please add this page in your system and remove it as soon as possible so we get peace of mind. Thank you.
