    Hello,

    Perhaps you did run a scan and fixed the found issues.
    Then you decided to uninstall Spybot, although the SDCleaner was still running in order to fix the found items.

    Sometimes Spybot – Search & Destroy can not delete all files. Some files used by Windows are running in the background. If you would delete these files before the application they are involved in ends, your system might become instable. That is the reason why you sometimes have to restart your system to complete the cleaning process.
    In this case the SDCleaner/SDDelfile destroys the found items, before they are activated.

    I would recommend to make a fresh installation of Spybot 2.1 and then disable the SDCleaner.
    Go to the Spybot 2 folder, by default:
    Windows XP: C:\Program Files\Spybot – Search & Destroy 2
    Windows Vista or Windows 7 or Windows 8: C:\Programs (x86)\Spybot – Search & Destroy 2
    and open the SDCleaner.exe.
    Here you can uncheck the checkbox in front of “Run cleaner on system startup”.

    Best regards
    Sandra

    I can't open the SD welcome screen, because it blocked at the licence test : Your licence is expired.
    Than you have two choices :
    -Show the presentation of all licences.
    -Buy a new licence (false advertising by the way because the link does not lead to a discount)
    Or OK.

    And if I click OK nothing is opening.

    I uninstall Spybot without close SDCleaner, because I can't open it because the licence is expired.
