Re: Error ADW 7.0.1.0

Could you try restarting your PC in safe mode with networking, install Malwarebytes, do a full scan with them and then attempt to scan with AdwCleaner. 

Before that, you could also use RKill to kill any malicious software before using anti-malware. Let me know if this helps.

HI Folks,

Although I'm currently not using MalwareBytes on my Android devices, I have used this app on Android in the past. And I like it very much for its simplicity. It does, as the name suggests, take care of malware. No silly optimizers or other useless add-ons.

Please check for F/P

Re: Problems

Greetings,

Downloaded the program about 10 minutes ago.  Ran program and got the error messsage that says the program is outdated.  Are you now working in the future and posting programs that we cannot see yet?

This issue is known and will be resolved in a couple of hours. In the meantime, you can just discard the outdated version message. Sorry for the...

Re: Problems

A closely related issue is the lack of distinguishing version numbers.  There seem to have been several 7.0.1.0 betas, followed today by a non-beta 7.0.1.0.  Could each file be named dfferently — it's confusing when you run 7.0.1.0, and a notice pops up telling you to update your file, and the file on the website is still called 7.0.1.0.

Re: AdwCleaner stops working!

Update.....I uninstalled the latest version of AdwCleaner that I was using (not the beta) and installed the previous older version and it worked fine.

 

Re: False positives?

Do you have the latest version installed? Have you tried the newest beta update of AdwCleaner? Kind of curious how in this case internet is affecting scan results.

Re: AdwCleaner stops working!

Not sure, it seems like lately a lot of people are experiencing crashes on older systems. Windows 10 doesn't have issues as far as I am aware. But it's not about Win10. Could you try running a beta version and see if that helps? Just click on the beta, choose the latest version, download and run. Keep us updated.

Re: My AdwCleaner has a problem

Have you had any other success determining the issue? Have you tried first scanning with Malwarebytes and then AdwCleaner afterward? What OS are you running and which version? Because that might cause an issue with compatibility (Very rare case). Try launching the application in the admin mode? This guide also has more info about compatibility, IF it is the issue. Speculating at this point. Let...
