Re: AdwCleaner 7.1.1 false positive with Vulkan

Checked on my 3 other Nvidia GC PC's and didn't find the "C:\Windows\System32\Unknown" folder.

This folder has been installed on march.

Vulkan runtime libraries come from NVidia drivers. As they appear useless for me I uninstalled them on my 4 PC's.

Not sure now that it's not a malware...

Re: AdwCleaner 7.0.6.0 has stopped working

Agree with GLykos.  I downloaded 7.1 several days ago and it ran great.  Thanks for all your hard work.  Having worked as a Data Systems Technician while serving in the US Navy, I know these sorts of things aren't always easy fixes and they take time.

Thanks,

Re: BSOD tcpip.sys? at boot only

Hi Julie, thanks a lot. I add 1) screen shot of CMD tasks 2) complete log 3) complete CBS log with repair (filter by date: 2008/04/16, surely a BSOD at each boot may "damage further" other components, I did not run scandisk after each bsod). 1) https://postimg.cc/image/k18gauxl7/   2)  https://www5.zippyshare.com/v/vZ76jlav/file.html  3) https://www74.zippyshare.com/v/6D7nRNer/file.html

Newest adw version detects world of warcraft beta as a threat and deletes the whole thing.

As seen in the title,the new version literally told me my world of warcraft beta would be a "threat" and continued deleting the whole thing making my 20gb download literally a waste of time. Im pretty pretty sure this shouldnt be detected or labeled as a thread or am i missing something? here the log:

BSOD tcpip.sys? at boot only

Hi everyone, Hi dear Jerome, I go BSOD (or a simply "total OS hang" > power off) at boot **ONLY**, therefore I have to leave the pc always turned on (with zero problems) since 3 weeks. But I prefer the old behaviour, i.e. shutdown during every night ;) hardware and software are always the same here, since...a lot years. Memory: the long test told me all is ok: I stopped it after the 12th (!) p...

Re: AdwCleaner 7.0.6.0 has stopped working

Great news!  Just downloaded and ran AC 7.100 successfully!!  (This is a Dell Latitude E6400 laptop, Win 7, same that was consistently presenting the startup issue across the various releases of AC 7.0x0)  The panel has been redesigned and there is a variety of customization options available in Settings.  Looking forward to spending some time with it to more fully appreciate the new format and...

Re: PUP's from online studies - harmless or not?

Hello Fleks,

I see you have a PUP issue(s).  Did you delete the PUP's with Adware Cleaner after you ran the scan?  I don't know where you are located but did you know this study website is in Germany?

PUA. (Potentially Unwanted Application) or PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program)  These are very annoying at best in that they cause pop-us, redirect your browser home page, and other behavior that...
