Ad-Aware SE 1.03 Professional

[aKaFrEE]

Ive seen the switch for personal which still brings up the help and manual scan. but someone said there was some command line options for professional. does anyone know what they are?

mmm i'n using this (RunOnceEx) -

EG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Ad-aware SE Pro Build 1.03 Retail" /f 
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Applications\Ad-Aware\aawsepro.exe /s" /f 
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 2 "taskkill /IM Ad-Aware.exe" /F
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 3 "taskkill /IM hh.exe" /F

EG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Ad-aware SE Pro Build 1.03 Retail" /f

should be

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Ad-aware SE Pro Build 1.03 Retail" /f

sorry for nitpicking just pointing out incase less experienced people copy and paste into there own cmd file.

You could forgo the installation and copy the C:\Program Files\Lavasoft folder and the settings.awc file from C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware and copy them to the correct folders i.e Using xplode

 	<dircopy directory='#SOURCEDRIVE#\Applications\programfiles\Lavasoft' target ='#PROGRAMFILES#'/>
  	<filecopy source='#SOURCEDRIVE#\Applications\programfiles\Lavasoft\settings.awc' target ='#APPDATA#\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware\settings.awc'/>

Applications\programfiles is where my files are located on the disc

Hi this is my first post and I'm very new to this. Is there any way to kill the app before the scan starts and the help window pop up while using a .bat file?

here are the switches

Using Command Line Parameters

Previous Next

Ad-Aware can be operated without using the graphical user interface (GUI). It can be controlled by using command line parameters. UNC paths are supported.

Example:

Ad-Aware.exe /smart +silent +update +nice-2

Ad-Aware will run silently (without the GUI) in the background, checks for definitions file updates before it performs the scan, and then performs a Smart System scan at IDLE priority

Available command line parameters

/smart

Performs a Smart System scan

/full

Performs a Full System scan

/custom

Performs a scan using Custom Scanning options predefined by the user

/ads

Performs an ADS (Alternate Data Stream) scan and is only available on NTFS enabled volumes

Using /ads alone will run the ADS scan using the parameters (paths) defined in the scan settings

Using /ads with a path as the very first parameter, for example %Ad-Aware.exe% "C:\test" /ads will run an ADS scan on the defined path

/?

Displays a help window with a listing of all the available command line parameters

/help

Displays help on available command line parameters

/paths:"%pathsfile%"

%pathfile% defines a text file which includes a list with paths that will be scanned. %pathfile% can also specify a remote resource.

/sdump:"%destinationfile%"

Creates a file containing status information at the specified location. This command requires a destination file name. Information appended to the file created will include version, build, loaded definitions file, available add-ons, scanning statistics, etc

+archives

Overrides any archival scan settings so that archives are scanned

-archives

Overrides any archival scan settings so that archives are not scanned

+auto

Performs both scanning and removal in full-automatic mode using the automatic quarantine and log file settings defined by the user

+cskip

Skips the conditional scans

+delay

Activates delayed loading

+diskonly

Only performs a disk scan. It will not perform any memory/registry scans

+log:"%destination%"

Creates a log file at the specified path. The full path name must be added in quotes

+mru

Scans for negligible risk objects and temporarily overrides the last user setting for that option

-mru

Skips the scan for negligible risk objects and temporarily overrides the last user setting for that option

+nice+/-n

"+" boosts priority: ABOVE_NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS up to REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS

(+nice+1 or +nice+2 respectively)

"-"decreases priority: BELOW_NORMAL down to IDLE

(+nice-1 or +nice-2 respectively)

+nodefnotice

No warning will be given if the definitions file is outdated

+noset

Scan will not alter any user data

+nowrite

Disables all writing to disk. Ignore lists, cache and preferences are not saved if this switch is used

+prefs:"%file%"

Uses a user-defined preference file for the scan. The full path and file name must be added in quotes

+procnuke

Performs an aggressive memory scan. Ad-Aware will try to unload/terminate the process/module and immediately delete it. This is required to handle reciprocal processes for example. It also unloads explorer and recognized modules during the removal, regardless of whether or not the tweak options are set

+ref:"%file%"

Uses user-defined definitions file for the scan. The full path and file name must be added in quotes

+remove:n

n must be a number between 0 and 10. If used in combination with the /auto parameter, only content that has an equal or higher TAC index will automatically be removed

+retv:[out]

Returns the highest TAC rating of all objects found as exit code

+safeload

Loads the minimal configuration required for Ad-Aware SE to operate. Skips loading of cache files, ignore list, plug-ins and extensions. If there are problems launching Ad-Aware SE the conventional way, use this command.

+sd

Sends command to running instance of Ad-Aware

+silent

Runs Ad-Aware without showing the graphical user interface and scans automatically without removing any detected objects

+update

Checks if a new definitions file is available and downloads it on Ad-Aware SE startup
