Can you please help.....My computer is running on Vista and I can't seem to find the file that I need to remove so that I can get Ad Aware to run again. If you can help, can you please do it in a way that a BABY can get to it.......I'm not very good w/Vista yet so I'm not sure where I need to go to find anything.....I will need to be told step by step.
thank you soooooooooooooooo much

Hi,
Firstly we need to configure viewing hidden files:
Go to Start > Control Panel > Folder Options
Click on the View tab
Make sure this option is selected:
Then you will need to navigate to the folder:
Start > Computer > double click C: > navigate to C:\ProgramData\Lavasoft \Ad-Aware\ by double clicking on the appropriate folders > find core.aawdef and delete it.
Hope that helps,
Casey
