version 6.0 .
Adwcleaner finds a threat in file web data located in C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default . The value is Search Provider and data is search.babylon.com.
I deleted it several times and it still can't be removed, even I deleted the whole Web data file.

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 had been unable to delete the error message "File not found \ Search Extensions\Client.exe" after booting windows. ADW Cleaner worked.

Once again and this time in english my suggestion for the UI/language

While in English is a distinctly difference between "Cleaning" and "Uninstall", in the german translation the words "Löschen" (Delete) and "Deinstallieren" (Uninstall) are not so different and many people misunderstand this. After a scan they often choose "Deinstallieren" (and the similar Icon with the red bug reinforces the error) because they think, that this uninstalls the malware but in fact it deinstalls AdwCleaner.

Please change that.

TESTIMONIAL For AdwCleaner -- World's Best Free Cleaner for Treacherous Malware
I discovered AdwCleaner at the Malwarebytes forums. It is one of the primary tools used by the AV experts there.
I used AdwCleaner for several years whenever I believe my active PAID AV protection failed to detect a threat.
AdwCleaner saved my PC SEVERAL times from Virus Hell!
THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH FOR AdwCleaner, Mr. Xplode.
(WARNING for Novice Users: Unless you are very knowledgeable about the Windows Registry, think twice about using AdwCleaner to delete potentially infected registry keys. If AdwCleaner says you have infected registry keys, go to the Malwarebytes forum and ask for a second opinion from an expert before messing with your Windows Registry.)

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!

@SPARTACUS Sorry that it happened. What was these "other perfectly good programs" that AdwCleaner removed ? I also insists that we recommend to ask for help on our support forum while using such a tool. AdwCleaner let you choose what elements you want to remove. Finally, you can always easily restore deleted files by using the quarantine.

Regards.

Is there a bug in 5,008 it advises to delete files in c:/program data/product data which contains loads of files ?
