| You can run Ad-aware using command line parameters, this is usefull when you for example run Ad-Aware from a sheduler.
|
|
|
|
|
| the syntax is executable /parameter
|
| where executable is the filename of Ad-aware, ad-aware.exe by default.
|
|
|
| The following commands are supported:
|
|
|
| /auto = Run adaware in automatic mode
|
| No user input is required, ad-aware will automatically scan and remove any recognized spyware reference.
|
| We recommend passing the /log parameter along with the /auto parameter.
|
|
|
| /hide = Minimize while running
|
| Ad-aware does not show up while scanning.
|
| This parameter makes sense only if automatic mode is also used.
|
|
|
| /log (destination) = Creates and saves log file to the destination path
|
| i.e. /log C:\Temp will store a log file in the C:\Temp folder, containing the date and time of scanning in the filename.
|
| Please notice that this path will not be created by ad-aware, if the specified path is invalid, the logs will
|
| be placed in the ad-aware folder.
|
| If no destination path is given, logs will also be saved to the ad-aware folder.
|
|
|
| /full = Performs a complete scan
|
| If this parameter is used, Ad-aware will scan the memory, registry and all fixed drives, ignoring the user configuration
|
| specified in the configuration menu.
