Greetings,

AdwCleaner v7 no longer supports Windows XP. You can try to use the previous major version (v6) by following this link: https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/files/851/

Please note that it's 10 months old and is no longer updated.

Also, feel free to try out Malwarebytes 3.0 (it is compatible with XP): https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/309-malwarebytes/...

Goodmorning to all of you...

I try to download adwcleaner for an old pc with WindowsXP in school...Win 32

Is it available or not?

Thanks in advance...

using latest version 13/03/18

That’s not necessary. AdwCleaner does not  “install” anything more than what I listed above. Hence why you don’t ever need to go to add/remove programs on the Windows Control Panel in order to “uninstall” the software.

To be more precise, the AdwCleaner executable is portable. It just creates an extra folder at the following location C:\AdwCleaner.

This still leaves windows thinking it is installed and eventually leads to trouble in add/remove programs and leftover registry entries. What is needed in an uninstall/cleanup program from Malwarebytes.

AC 7.0.8.0 downloaded here and from the MB link above compare exactly.  The known problem described above occurs with all versions of AC 7.0.x specfically on (at least) Dell laptops running Win 7.  Guess we're still hoping for AC 7.1.x, said to be in the works.

They'll be even better. :)

Yes, AdwCleaner finally installed and ran normally. I removed the Auslogics stuff so it won't zap it. I hope version 7.0.9.0 and above keeps working!

Thanks

Sorry, wasn't following this thread closely.  Yes, just downloaded AdwCleaner 7.0.8 using IDM without error.  Thanks, and regards.
