Re: AdwCleaner has stopped me from booting into safe mode

Good morning! So I re-ran AdwCleaner in Safe Mode, pressed Clean when it found 30 threats, and was once again prevented from a boot menu upon pressing F8 at startup. Argh!  

There is not a file called C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner_Debug.log.

AdwCleaner[C2] looks like this:

Re: AdwCleaner has stopped me from booting into safe mode

Hello,

So, restoring your modifications prior to AdwCleaner processing has re-enabled the safe-mode access ?

Regarding the crash:

Can you launch AdwCleaner (redownload it if needed), click on Tools > Options, and tick "Debug" in "Mode" section. Then, do a scan, and please share the two logfiles:

  • C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner_Debug.log
  • C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner[Sxx].txt (where xx is the greatest ...

Re: AdwCleaner has stopped me from booting into safe mode

Hey there,

I'm damn lucky because I had backed up my registry 2 days ago (I forgot until coming across another forum thread.) I just imported it into my registry and although the import did not fully complete (as some elements were currently in use), I WAS able to access the boot menu with F8 and choose Safe Mode after. Whew!

Next thing: AdwCleaner crashed on me at the end as I said, and it h...

Re: AdwCleaner has stopped me from booting into safe mode

Hello,

You can keep the quarantined elements from now, we'll see to delete them when the problems will be solved.

You can make the test to restore the registry elements from AdwCleaner. I doubt it will restore your access to the safe-mode, but we'll see and we'll proceed according to your results.

Best regards,

Hi, thanks for responding.

Well that should be good news!

Is the log file the same as the application file in Malwarebytes? It is not very detailed....

 

Here is the last file of the last scan I did (of several):

Re: AdwCleaner has stopped me from booting into safe mode

Hello,

The logfile seems to be complete, it means that the clean process has been successful, without crashing. Also, I do not see any deleted elements related to safe-mode.

Can you also share the Malwarebytes logfile ?

Best regards,

Re: AdwCleaner has stopped me from booting into safe mode

Here is the logfile. Two were actually made, 15 minutes apart. This is the later one:

AdwCleaner has stopped me from booting into safe mode

Hi,

I had some unwanted popups the other day and seemed to remove them.

As AdwCleaner is recommended for adware/pups, I thought I'd try it out to see if Malwarebytes found everything.

The scan itself was quick, but the removing part took longer, and when it got to the end it crashed (screen went wonky and discoloured, my disabled avira taskbar icon had a big red x through it) and restarted. ...

Re: ITS NOT RESPONDING

Ok.

So, to remove UCGuard, can you try this:

  • Download MalwareBytes Anti Malware here.
  • Launch MalwareByte's Anti Malware from your desktop
  • Click on the tab Settings -> Detection & Protection -> PUP/PUM and check "Treat these detections like malware".
  • Tab Exam choose Threats, click on Scan now, and click on Launch the exam.
  • If something is detected, choose to Quarantine everything. If it as...
