I just discovered that the Quarantine Manager did NOT return all the files that it said were returned. And all the files are gone from Quarantine Manager now. Not happy.

I would highly recommend a few improvements that would have prevented or minimized the difficulties I experienced.

1. Display the Log File after the Scan is done, so that it's more obvious what was found before Cleaning starts. My Scan didn't find any "Services" to clean so my GUI didn't change. Even if a display had appeared to indicate I should check all tabs before Cleaning, I might have av...

Hmm, okay so it sounded so simple.

Where can I find the Log File? That option is greyed out when I load ADWCleaner.

Also, I can't seem to copy lines from Quarantine. I can highlight lines individually, and I click on "ALL" lines, but can't seem to copy them.

And, FYI, there are thousands of individual files in Quarantine now. If I could restore the whole folder, it would be fast, but copying...

Hello,

Can you please provide us with AdwCleaner's logfile so that we will be able to remove it from the database or update our detections ?

Also, is there a faster way to restore files from Quarantine? The Restore function is incredibly slow.
