Version 6.000 detects firefox prefs.js

on AdwCleaner by ****
Hi, Just wanted to let know that the newest version (6.000) detects the firefox [prefs.js] on lines 735 (and when commented out, it detects 734) and, after some scans, 104. I went to check what was on those lines and...: 104: user_pref("camera.control.face_detection.enabled", false); 734: user_pref("noscript.showVolatilePrivatePermissionsToggle", false); 735: user_pref("noscript.subscription.la...

Re: AdwCleaner deletes some file but it reappears after Windows start-up

Ok, I read another set of comments somewhere on your forum with someone with the exact same issue.  The problem is IObit Unistaller which your software is reading as questionable.  Once you erase the key, IObit just reinstalls it.  I deleted IObit and the problem went away.  Interestly, the IObit Advanced System Care 10 product does not seem to cause any problems- just the Unistaller portion.  ...

Help I need to gain control of my home network and devices again

I started using F12 developer tools to look at the webpages and their sources. I noticed that they all were not t...

Re: SQLite3.dll

on AdwCleaner by ****

Hello,

The error may be normal with previous releases (before 5.107). If you got it while running the v5.110, it's related to an old sqlite3.dll in your %temp% folder.

Nothing to worry about.

Best regards,

Is egui.exe in the registry a false positive?

I downloaded the new ADWCleaner 5.103 this morning, and ran it.  It found one registry key:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\Image File Execution Options\egui.exe

I went to the key in the Registry, and the key has no value.

I have ESet Smart Security 8.0.319,0 installed, and I believe that this key could be part of the ESet registry setup. Could you tell me whether or not th...

Adwcleaner - FF extension false positives?

Howdy, I sent the author of bloody vikings your way a while back. I'm here today because two extensions I regularly use are being detected by adwcleaner.

1. "ClassicThemeRestorer" https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/versions/ (I am using the developer/beta edition.)

2. "SavedPasswordEditor" https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/saved-password-editor/
