Solution if Ad-Aware does not start after clicking program icon Started by LS Ann , May 17 2012 10:56 AM Page 1 of 3 1 2 3 Next Please log in to reply 40 replies to this topic #1 LS Ann LS Ann Lavasoft Staff Moderator 86 posts Posted 17 May 2012 - 10:56 AM First solution is to open Task Manager and kill AdAware.exe, all AdAwareLauncher.exe and AdAwareService.exe (if they are there) and try to start the program. If problem remains, do the following: Go to Start -> Run, type cmd and press Enter. Or go to Start -> type cmd in the field "Search programs and filed", right click on cmd it and choose "Run as Administrator". Automatically it opens with C:\Users\username directory and you should go to the Program Files. For that you should type cd ..\..\ and press Enter. It should looks like C:\Users\username>cd ..\..\. After cd should be space. After pressing Enter it looks like C:\>.Then you should go to Program Files (x86)\Ad-Aware Antivirus (for 64bits OS) or Program Files\Ad-Aware Antivirus (for 32bits OS). For this you can use the Tab key, pressing it you will find necessary folder, after each folder you should type/. Or you can just type "Program Files (x86)\Ad-Aware Antivirus\AdAware.exe" /regserver and it will look like C:\>"Program Files (x86)\Ad-Aware Antivirus\AdAware.exe" /regserver and press Enter. The same should be done for AdAwareService.exe, first with /regserver , then with -service.After pressing Enter you will see C:\>. You should go to Program Files (x86)\Ad-Aware Antivirus (for 64bits OS) or Program Files\Ad-Aware Antivirus (for 32bits OS) as was done before but this time for AdAwareService.exe. You can do that pressing the Tab key or you can just type "Program Files (x86)\Ad-Aware Antivirus\ AdAwareService.exe" /regserver and it will look like C:\>"Program Files (x86)\Ad-Aware Antivirus\ AdAwareService.exe" /regserver and

Unable to uninstall completely Started by DawkinsDog , Mar 07 2013 03:58 AM uninstall live watch security center Please log in to reply 19 replies to this topic #1 DawkinsDog DawkinsDog Newbie Members 5 posts Posted 07 March 2013 - 03:58 AM Hi there, Sorry if I'm putting this in the wrong part of the forum but I'm tearing my hair out here and hoping somebody will know what is going on. I am trying to completely uninstall Ad-Aware, or more precisely I thought I already had months ago - but apparently http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/index.php?/topic/32398-solution-if-ad-aware-does-not-start-after-clicking-program-icon/ not. In Security Center it says that I have Lavasoft Ad-Aware Live! Anti-virus protection up to date and scanning, which it shouldn't be given that, as I said, I uninstalled it ages ago. I've tried reinstalling the old version of Ad-Aware but it won't scan, the option is grayed out, uninstalling it doesn't clear up the Watch Live! problem and nor does installing the latest version of Ad-Aware, which also won't scan at http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/index.php?/topic/33150-unable-to-uninstall-completely/ all and also doesn't remove the setting in Security Center when uninstalled. I'm at a loss as to what else to try. I've run several registry cleaners, none find any problems relating to it and I'm loath to start digging around the registry without any guide as to what to look for. The problem this is causing is that I am now without any active virus scanner. If I try to install another, such as Avast or AVG, my PC immediately causes a Blue Screen of Death and I have to go into Safe Mode to uninstall it. It would appear, due to the BSOD error (No_More_IRP_Stack_Locations) that the system erroneously thinks there's another virus scanner running, which is presumably Watch Live. If anybody knows how to resolve this problem I would be extremely grateful!

DCDIAG testing, an attempt will be made to query Active Directory on all configured DNS servers. DCOM errors will appear https://docs.labtechsoftware.com/knowledgebase/article/6476 if non-primary DNS servers are not AD DNS servers, causing the DCOM request to those servers to fail while executing.
