rufus, I agree will all that you say. many users are probably unaware that the defs are NOT being updated.
I had hoped that someone could have looked at my debug log and said if the problem would be fixed or support for XP was being dropped. Will the new version support XP?
HillBilly I have been trying to get this problem fixed for months. 1 attempt to fix it failed a couple of months ago and I provided my log from 6.046 and have not heard anything since then.
As the program is written now there is no way of knowing there is a problem unless it is run in debug mode and the debug log is checked.
Same stuation here as above with AdwCleaner 6.47 and XPsp3. database update from server fails.

Greetings. I don't see a reason why you shouldn't be able to do so. It looks like all the files and registries are not part of natural Windows process. Adwcleaner rarely has false positives. It is good that you are extra careful with what you are removing and how it works, but you have no worries here.
Need some help please, here is the log, thanks for any assistance:
