How AdwCleaner works?

It works like any other malware removal tool, no installation is needed. When executed a UI (User Interface) pops up giving you an option to scan your computer for possible Adware. There are four buttons in the UI namely;

• Scan – this is where you should start, by pressing scan Adware search begins.

• Cleaning – hitting this button will result to adware clean-up from your files up to the computer registry entries. Then your PC will be restarted, after restart you will presented with log file.

• Logfile – all search results and affected file path is recorded here.

• Uninstall – if you think cleaning is too much, this is a good option.

After scanning your computer, results will be displayed either in all or selected AdwCleaner tabs. From services, folders, files, shortcuts, scheduled tasks, registry, internet explorer, google chrome and Firefox.

Review the AdwCleaner scan results. If you wish not to remove certain files just unchecked that entries. When you are ready to clean your computer simply click the “cleaning” button. A computer reboot will be necessary.

AdwCleaner software compatibility

So far, I haven’t encounter any incompatibility yet. However, if you are using Antivir webguard and Ask toolbar you may encounter issues but it seems that the latest version already fixed this problem.

Please also note that if Delta Search, Babylon and other related toolbars are installed in your computer it may warn you that “AdwCleaner is trying to change your browser settings”.

You are advised to allow the change to take effect. It is normal because AdwCleaner will restore your browser default settings before the toolbars was installed. It’s one way of making your browsing experience improve.
