Hi there, didn't come here in a while but anyway I will answer if some of you are interested. I used AutoIT to write this program, that's why it's sometimes triggering false positives in some antiviruses. As far as I know, this language really tries to use the core functions of Windows, and I think I read somewhere that it is using the same download function than Internet Explorer.
In a nutshell, that's just triggering an Internet Explorer download via the console.
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?
I corrected some spelling mistakes think:
hi first of all it is very good the program helps me a lot for what I necesito.Yo not use it for what is the subject virus only use it to close all programs and things that I have open when playing games helps me much to free up rAM and speed up the prosesador. But I have problems in Windows 10 to close everything and open the explorer.exe become an error that I do not like to open the explorer.exe again this opens but does not work any of his options to produce ... I mean I mean that when you open the explorer.exe if everything well but the taskbar in their functions as well as any work that gives me the problem of not being able to access any of the functions of the explorer.exe process that is open vital in the Windows interface will not let me open anything or interact with the start menu absolutely nada..trate to start the task manually with task manager in administrator mode and normal mode but still does not work ... Now my proposal is this that when closing the processes in your program that put an option to let you close those that you want so you can ensure the explorer.exe process fails when using your program ... I had no problems with this program or windows xP or windows 7, only windows 8 and windows 10 .. in windows 8 the problem is that when you run the program with administrator mode it closes all the processes and programs including explorer.exe manually opening explorer.exe from the program run in administrator mode open properly but do not function menu options or settings windows 8 ... and get a sign saying they can not open the menu settings because explorer.exe is being executed in administrator mode ... what most want is you add the option of that program and want to close the process in your program thanks and see you later.
Version 6.020 seems to freeze at searching for folders on using it after the latest win10 update for version 1607.
Found 41 items in HKLM/Software...but info is in complete,so i don't know if they're safe to remove or not...it also keeps adding the Sendspace and extensions folders all the time,yet I do know there is no malware in either of those. If these issues don't get fixed,I'll have to stop using the program,rather than screw up my computer by deleting something I may need.
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
Greetings,
About process killed during cleaning. It will be fixed in the next release.
Concerning elements that are not deleted, can you please describe your problem by sharing logfiles using our forum (https://toolslib.net) ?
Thanks.
Hmm… Not nice. AdwCleaner 6.000 found registry keys:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\FWTools.FWUtil
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\FWTools.FWUtil.1
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\SQLActiveScriptHost
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\SWNGRE.uiMeshDecoWizardPage_c
and sure cleaned them out.
After reboot I looked up what a heck those keys was about and found they are all FloXpress utility in SolidWorks 2014. I’m using this program last 2 years and never had any problems with program nor viruses. Now SolidWorks crashes when starting FloXpress… So sad…
Check everything before you cleaning with AdwCleaner 6.000 !
@ibanez0r You're welcome to continue using our free version of GlassWire indefinitely. Our free software is extremely powerful on its own and it never expires or stops working. We chose to interface with the Windows Firewall API because the Windows Firewall is used by over a billion Windows users world-wide. Also we think software that disables the Windows Firewall feels sketchy to us, but maybe we're just paranoid. :)
Hello thank you very much for this great product. But please leave acestream alone, I want to keep using it, why is it consider as a malware?
