AdwCleaner and Malwarebytes 3.0 do not always share the same exact detections "list".

The detection should no longer happen. Can you confirm?

Re: Newest versions of AdwCleaner

Greetings,

Sorry for the late answer.

Currently, you need to run a scan with AdwCleaner in order to get the update notification. We might add an option to "check for updates" in an upcoming version.

Thanks.

Unable to open AdwCleaner 7.1.1.

Hi,

running the 7.1.0 version, question "would you like to download update 7.1.1" pops up. Indeed it is possible to save the new version, but it is not possible to open 7.1.1. Hence the popup asking for installation of 7.1.1.appears every time when starting a scan. Would be grateful to receive an advice as to how 7.1.1. can be installed

Thank you and best regrds

Re: Newest adw version detects world of warcraft beta as a threat and deletes the whole thing.

edit: in case you deleted the folder via adwcleaner you have to restore it and then locate the folder so your battlenet knows where the files are. otherwise its gonna re download it all. just restored it now so yea now i just have to remember to not delete it again when using adwcleaner again x) also the new version fixed the false positive: greast and fast!

Re: AdwCleaner 7.1.1 false positive with Vulkan

Checked on my 3 other Nvidia GC PC's and didn't find the "C:\Windows\System32\Unknown" folder.

This folder has been installed on march.

Vulkan runtime libraries come from NVidia drivers. As they appear useless for me I uninstalled them on my 4 PC's.

Not sure now that it's not a malware...
