Re: AdwCleaner will not install on Win10 64-bit PC

Additional Note - 2/19/18: I logged in under a separate accoun that also has local admin privileges. On login Win10 updated some Creators Update files and allowed me to install/run AdwCleaner 7.0.8.0. After reboot I tried running AdwCleaner unde...

Mon PC serait-il infecté ?

Bonjour,

Sur mon PC de bureau HP Windows7 Pro, j'ai des petits bugs depuis quelques semaines. Il arrive que l'écran devienne tout flou et que je doive rebooter. J'ai installé la dernière version de Firefox mais elle plante. Or, je n'ai vu nulle part que cette version posait problème. Par ailleurs, avec Microsoft Outlook 2007 Pro, certaines de mes adresses e.mail ne fonctionnent plus alors que ...

Re: lavasoft web companion

OK, this issue is known and will be fixed in the upcoming 7.1 version.

In the meantime, we can try to use AdwCleaner in Safe Mode. It works sometimes.

Here is how you can boot Windows 7 in Safe Mode : https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/force-windows-to-boot-into-safe-mode-without-using-the-f8-key/

Then, just launch AdwCleaner again and do a scan/clean.

Re: lavasoft web companion

Thanks for the scan logfile.

Can you then click on "Clean", let AdwCleaner do his work, and then please share the generated logfile after reboot?

Regards.

Re: Major difficulties with AdwCleaner v. 7.0.3.1

This is the only log available that says clean. This was done when he removed ALL check marks from all items found. Otherwise, when he removed check marks only from the registiry section the program did not go through with clean it just shut down. .

Hello,

This time he hit clean and the program closed, the computer shut down but when it rebooted it had not cleaned anything.

Re: Major difficulties with AdwCleaner v. 7.0.3.1

Update:

As per this thread; https://toolslib.net/forum/viewthread/13432-adwcleaner-7031-has-stopped-woring/

I had my friend try this suggestion;

Try to uncheck every registry element detected before pushing the Clean button. Then, it should work as expected.

It did not work. He tried in both normal mode, and received the message that "AdwCleaner stopped working" as soon as he hit clean. S...

Major difficulties with AdwCleaner v. 7.0.3.1

I am helping a friend clean a grossly infected computer. Windows 10. Uses McAfee AV.

He ran Malwarebytes 3 without difficulty and it cleaned with no problem at all. I do have the log if needed but cannot find a way to attach the text file

He then attempted to use AdwCleaner v. 7.0.3.1 but it would not complete cleaning and received a box with notification that a problem had stopped the clean....
