Re: How to ignore specific programs from Adwcleaner scan

Hi,

maybe you can provide the full logfile from AdwCleaner, so we can give you some help... like for example if you should delete the detected items or not.

Currently, there is no way to ignore elements permanently.

Hello,

what content do you mean?

How to ignore specific programs from Adwcleaner scan

I use a paid program (Babylon Translation) that is always identified by Adwcleaner as a program that should be deleted. Is there some way I can tell Adwcleaner to ignore files associated with the Babylon translation program.

Re: AdwCleaner v.5.013 cannot delete

Hello,

Thanks. The registry key seems locked but unused (it's harmless).

Can you export it :

  • Download RegToolExport
  • Paste the following content in the text field, and click on [Exporter]
  • Then, upload the .reg file on Up2Sha.re and share me the link.

I'd like a new ZHPDiag report to check (please refer to the instructions above).
