@ayeye, Can you activate the debug mode (go to Tools > Options > tick "debug"), do a scan and a clean to trigger the crash. Then, please share the file C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner_Debug.log

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...

Thanks, but the problem still been there. The AdwCleaner 7.0.1.0 still hangs up!

Hello,

As Regist said, and please decline the update when prompted (click on [Cancel]).

Thanks,

How can I download AdwCleaner 7.0.1.0 (beta) ? Thanks.

Can you use this version instead and tell us if that's ok?  

When I scan my laptop by AdwCleaner 7, in the middle working, it shows a window: "*** Caught unhandled unknown exception, terminating." and then hanging up. What's wrong with it?

adware cleaner 7.0.0.0 crashes on use, when it comes to the end of the process. 

And, my old 6.x won't run - insists on upgrading to 7 which doesn't work. 

So, figured I would try 7.0.1.0 beta, but that also insists it is out of date, and tries to get me to go back to 7.0.0.0

Is it the same case as me then? I know for sure I used at least Spypot: Search & Destroy before, though it was years ago.
