Ccleaner shows both Avast 6 and Avast 8


Recommended Posts

yes both use the same detect path, this has been mentioned before I believe.

 

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION

DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)

ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Rare double post for me but need OP and Developers to notice this so

 

[Avast! Antivirus 6]
ID=2271
LangSecRef=3024
Detect=HKLM\Software\Avast Software\Avast
Detect2=HKCU\Software\Avast Software\Avast
Default=True
FileKey1=%ProgramData%\Avast Software\Avast\log|*.*
[Avast! Antivirus 8]
ID=2324
LangSecRef=3024
Detect=HKLM\Software\Avast Software\Avast
Detect2=HKCU\Software\Avast Software\Avast
Default=True
FileKey1=%ProgramData%\AVAST Software\Avast\log|*.txt
FileKey2=%ProgramData%\AVAST Software\Avast\Spamconf|*.bin.tmp*

Devs, please combine these two entries.

Is there any fix for this?

Because I still have the same issue.

Seems it has been forgotten...

Also, I have a similar problem with Adobe Shockwave that still appears under "Macromedia Shockwave 11".

Could you please help?

 

Thanks

Thank you. I didn't had an old version but updating it solved the issue for Avast.

 

But I still have the problem for "Macromedia Shockwave 11". The worst is that it is not installed anymore on my computer but it's still displayed on CCleaner.

that mean the uninstaller didn't do the job well and left some leftover

in this case, registry entry that ccleaner check for the cleaning rule

you can ignore it or run cc with /EXPORT switch to check which registry entry that cc use to detect Shockwave
