AdwCleaner Feature Suggestion

Hello, I use AdwCleaner a lot. I was wondering if you could implement a way to choose another installation directory from C:\AdwCleaner to something like C:\Program Files (x86)\AdwCleaner or C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\AdwCleaner? I would greatly appreciate this feature.

Re: A whole lot of damage

Hello,

Yes, there is a quarantine in which is copied each removed element.

Can you share the logfiles ? I find quite odd that AdwCleaner has removed those elements, and I'd like to check. The logfile is usually located in C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner[Cxx].txt.

Best regards,

Adwcleaner false positive?

I've run adwcleaner multiple times and I keep getting a threat detected in HKLM/Software/Description.  After adwcleaner cleans and reboots and I rerun it, it keeps showing up the detection.  I have manually looked in the registry and cannot find that folder.  Hidden files/folder is set to show everything.  I have run rkill, tsskiller and mbam which do not find this.

how can I remove this since...

Re: False Positive (Firefox add-on)

Hello,

Sorry for the delay.

I do not reproduce this detections, is it possible to share the file "C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Roaming\8pecxstudios\Cyberfox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\prefs.js" ? You can zip it and sent it by email if you prefer.

Thanks,

Re: Can't delete UCGuard
