When you open the AdwCleaner page, click "FREE DOWNLOAD"


Click "Save file"


Click on the icon to launch AdwCleaner. Installation of software is so simple that it is very easy.


When security warning comes out, click "execute"


Since terms are displayed, click 'Accept'


Since AdwCleaner has only three operation items "Scan", "Delete" and "Log File", anyone can use it without hesitation. First, click "Scan" to check whether adware is hidden in the PC.


In the PC used for review, the scan finishes in about 10 seconds. Thirty threats have been discovered this time, details are displayed at the bottom of the window. AdwCleaner's scan can detect adware, unnecessary toolbars, potentially unwanted programs, browser hijackers.


By switching tabs you can see the threats found by category such as "file" or "Chrome".


Each detected threat has a checkbox on the left side, and in the initial state all the checks are checked. If you have files or folders you want to keep, you can omit the checkbox. When you have finished checking the check box, you can delete all the adware by clicking "Delete".


To delete detected threats, it is necessary to forcibly terminate all the programs running on the PC, so if you have any data you do not have, save it first. Please click "OK" if it does not matter if you end it.


Tips for preventing unnecessary program installation are also displayed. Click "OK".


Click "OK" because you will be prompted to restart the PC.


When the PC restarts, text with the log of deleted folder and file is launched.
