Shane, same thing except Windows 7 and version 3.7.3.

This is the same as I reported on I think 8/16/15 for repair number 8. There is nothing in the log file 0 K is the file size. When I cancel the operation a bunch of lines roll down saying can not access something. And on another computer it rolls through #8 in about 2 minutes.

I just saw some of the information, file(s) in use by other operation, I think.

Also Merry Christmas to your family and all members of this forum.  And a Healthy New Years also.

Try this:
- Abort the program and rerun it but now skip the repair that's causing the trouble.
- repeat this procedure until you have run all repairs.
- then try to run all repairs once again.

Did it but I was not successful as it still just spun its wheels.

It said some files were being used already.

Solved, I hope.

Ran adwcleaner from bleeping computer and it took longer than normal.  It found a pushsource.dll and three other cryptic files trhat I deleted and then it permitted #8 repair to go to completion.

Thank the Lord that we have people(Shane) who attempt to fight the continuous hacks, viruses and all.

I'll assume there is a log of adwcleaner and what it did but I didn't copy it. However if it will help Shane to develop this program better I will search for it and post it.

Again Merry Christmas to all who participate on this forum.
