    Hello,

    The error indicates that the file is corrupted.
    It could be a download issue, or it is corrupted on the server.
    Or maybe your antivirus messed up the .exe but I doubt it.

    Try this: https://www.commentcamarche.net/telecharger/securite/2759-adwcleaner/

    And if you want to check your computer:

    Follow the FRST tutorial. ( take the time to read carefully - everything is well explained ).

    Download and run the FRST scan, 3 FRST reports will be generated:
    • FRST.txt
    • Shortcut.txt
    • Additionnal.txt


    Send these 3 reports to the site http://pjjoint.malekal.com/ and in return, provide the 3 pjjoint links leading to the reports here in a new response so that we can review them.

    Always present! Thanks :D
    You're right, the problem ultimately came from the site where I downloaded the software (I thought I was doing the right thing by downloading it from toolslib..)
    I still ran the scan with FRST, could you take a look at it please?
