Please give me some feedback on FreeFixer
by Roger Karlsson
What do you think about the FreeFixer application and the freefixer.com web site? I've set up this blog post so you easily can post your feedback. Want to see a new feature? Did you spot a spelling error? Did FreeFixer fail to remove some malware file? Want to see more screenshots?
Please post your feedback below. Anything is welcome. If you see someone already has posted your suggestion, please give them a "thump up".

Great program! This thing fixes stuff that many of the popular programs don't fix. Only problem is it is hard to find, used it a while back and couldn't find it again for the life of me :-)
The only suggestion that I can make is to have some sort of centralized reporting feature. So you can load it up on network machines and have it run, then report the results and let someone know on a server if action needs to take place.

Hi Roger,
I tried FreeFixer v0.58 2 times but both times it hangs on scanning drivers. Is this a known issue?
Regards,
Ronald

Hi, I love your program, thanks so much for making it available to us. I'm having a problem, I can't get the windows system tool to work, even on my admin. acct. I've found duplicate files, of legit. files in my sys.32 file. I really would like to check this. can you help? Also,can freefixer work in safe mode? I feel I have hidden data leakage, as my file sharing in all accts. on PC will turn on, over & over, AFTER I made sure they were all off. any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks again for all your work, this is a great program!
Shannon :)

I am a Chinese,use protableapps.com system in Flash Memery(U disk).
Hope FreeFixer english edition would provide Portable edition, use cloudy technology,hope it to Integrate an anti-virus scanner in FreeFixer,Improve rootkit detection,Add more scan locations, such as services, Firefox settings, etc.
If you can do it ,please send mail to me !
I want to contribution for FreeFixer, so hope include Feedback function.
If only a main *.exe file in FreeFixer ,I could intall it in portableapps.com system by myself.
Thank you very much.

I am NOT a Chinese ... (???)
But, I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night! ….
Suggested Change: Anyway that you might please change your Bot-Be-Gone question ... or else kill all of the 3-legged cats in the world (especially the one my neighbor has, please!) ... took me 2 hours of frustration caused by being denied dozens of times before I realized what the question meant to ask was "How many legs does a (4-legged) cat have?", (since 3-legged cats dont have 4 legs) ... well I finally got it right by knowing that if a cat had 100 legs he'd be a centipede; so I started at 99 and worked my way back to the solution ... thereby gaining safe-passage for myself into this comment window! (Boy!!! I Hope the question to get back out of here isn't so tough)! :-)
Anyhow,
I most-certainly-completely-and-unconditionally DO love freefixer ... but I am not IN love with her. Nonetheless,I must confess: I do want to have her babies!!!
... And I probably would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you blasted kids ... and yer pesky dog!!
(Well, you kids, your dog and the whole "I'm a dude-factor" ... other than that though, I bet I woulda' been "in"!! C'mon?!!? .... stop the hate!!)
“Thanks again mang! Keep up the nice work!!
PS: I am still not Chinese

"please remove free-fixer from my computer ASAP!"
Let me guess, and I'll betcha' bucks ta' donuts that I'm dead-nutz accurate too!? But only because there is no other rational possibility to explain *YOU*- here we go...
Roger crept into your house while you slept, grabbed a beer from your fridge and then installed his software onto your PC! When arriving at the Terms of Service agreement he even clicked "I Agree" for you!! It prolly wasn't personal; he's just a hard-hittin' go-getting type triple A+ personality ... I heard the guy wears 3 watches; ON EACH WRIST! And he was probably just bored that night!? - Anyhow, since his labor is voluntary and his Public Service FreeFixer offering is Freeware, he probably didn't charge you ALL that much ... (right on the money, so far ... right!!?) ...
Shortly after waking up, seeing the 6-DIGIT invoice that he left, you felt like you were being "price-gouged" and a bright girl like you "would NOT be taken advantage of!!" So, preparing for battle, you began mental-preparations first by forcing your mind to perpetually overlook the fact that all 6 of those digits on the invoice were ZEROES! You then paid a hypno-therapist $275 to clean everything up for your sub-conscious by replacing reality with a quaint fairytale about a sweet, sweet honorable Princess whose gold and jewels were all stolen from her by the Evil Hobbit Roger.
Upon finally logging into your PC for the first time that day a SUDDEN-HORROR came over you when you realized that your Windows 7 desktop(which had been factory-restored 2 days earlier) was missing the "Run" command from its Start Menu! Not knowing that it was obviously a result of "Roger-less condition" known as "Windows 7 Defaults" ... It would have mattered NONE at that point anyhow! So falling to your knees, and with a ROYAL-Scream ... screamed: "DAMN YOU ROGER!!! DAMN YOU ROGER AND YOUR FREEFIXER!!!" ... 180 seconds later you found your royal-'high'ness "here" ... on Roger's site ... ready to bark the royal-order demanding that he immediately undo the terrible things he had done to your kingdom ... On one end of the Royal-Statute you placed your Royal-initials, followed by an exclamation point(ASAP!) ... and at the other end you placed a "please" - obligatory smokescreen, superficial, "for the record" and artificial ... evidence-I'm-civilized - Royal-manners! A weak attempt to throw us off of your trail as a warped psychopath who suffers the consequences of her ACUTE Ego-Centric-Entitle-ism, (Correction: You aren't "suffering" anything here! You're the root-cause of the suffering!)..
OK moving on: and it looks like you regularly engage in risky, asocial-sociopathic behavior, are void of clarity in perception, lack ANY understanding of even the concept of gratitude and appear to have an "unnatural and unhealthy affinity" toward an estranged uncle. As well as 2 Sr. Citizen neighbors, small, high-RPM household appliances, a small group of barnyard animals and a broom that you affectionately refer to as "Bruce" ... Well, pretty good, huh!!? No need to worry - you have my word ... your secret is good with me! I will just refer to you as the "Royal-Pain" ....
Seriously, what is wrong with ppl? Wow!!! Download Freeware (GOOD Freeware!), Sign terms of Service. Fly past any and every warning about liability and who's responsible for it, if you install the software ... find yourself unhappy for ANY reason, and then have the 9lb nutz to come to the man's site and address him with a curt ORDER, preceded by a "please"!!??? I just don't get it at all????
PS - "please remove your computer from our World-Wide-InterWeb ASAP!"

Just trying out FreeFixer 0.6 for the first time and so far so good... but...
Make FreeFixer use the system default web browser. Browsing the web with IE is just about THE most unwise thing to do.

Freefixer hangs while "scanning for drivers". Tried 4/5 times (after reboot, closing all programs, force launch as administrator etc.) but it always hangs. OS is Windows 7 64 bit with all the latest updates. The log in Appdata/Local is empty so I don't know what kind of additional info I could provide...

Thank you Roger. I've tried your suggestion and in fact now it skips the drivers scan but sadly it now hangs while "Scanning Recently created or modified files". It says it may take a while but I left the program running for two hours, I think it should be enough (the the cpu is an Intel i7 2.8Ghz and the system has 8Gb of ram) Anyway when I say "hangs" I don't mean that the program freezes or crashes...it just stay there doing nothing (if I click the links within the program they still open up in the browser) but if I try to close the program I get the usual "the program is not responding" Windows message. If you need other info feel free to ask :)

I just downloaded, I had the Norton hub file and wanted to get rid of it. I too let it run for a couple of hours on my Satellite P775-S7320, and it appears to do nothing; similar to the post by Ivan. What is happening? Thanks.

i love your site but can't use it the way i would like because I am a dummy. All 'computer' smart friends I have are illusive (spelling) and I wonder who or where I shoud go to find help. Perhaps you could reccomend someone. I really appreciate your help. Your site is great, i just need to learn more about 'what's good and what's bad'. Thanks for your time and consideration.

Csrss.exe virtual memory files....Dont understand this all that much...this was by far the biggest of all the things shown here....how do i use this...if I delete all the things that have check boxes against them...is that deleting them from my computer or just from the virtual memory file...just about program I have ever used was listed here////please advise before I do anything....program appears to be fantastic..but manual is a little light on...its ok to say I gotta decide what to delete and what not to...but half the stuff I wouldn't have a clue as to what is good or bad....i guess i just assume if your program doesnt show a check box then thats the good stuff...so I just tick all the ones that have boxes..have a feeling this may not be quite the way to sort the good from the bad....any thoughts plese....

Pretty good program, but I found an issue on 64-bit Windows 7: under Services section, in my case, he found 2 services (VMnetDHCP and VMware NAT Service) saying "file is missing" and they can be marked for removal, but the files do exist under SysWOW64 folder.
Other than this, congrats on a pretty good job!

You have a great software program, and helped many computer users protect and fix their OS! I sent you a few suggestion
before and one was copy and past a file for deletion on reboot, instead of just typing, if folders were added it would be a great bonus. Adding scripts to identify virus and malware in Red is an excellent idea! To make your software the indisputable best, would be the simple detection and easy removal or Root-kits, worms and Trojans from the registry. I know this would be a monumental task but also a great ind-ever! That's 3 challenges, are you up to the pinnacle in software programing? I respect your work and effort in helping us all from computer treats, thank you Roger Karlsson and have a great 2013!
