• Welcome Guest, to the Spybot Forums! It's 2025, and we just upgraded our forum software.

    Today is Safer Internet Day, and with our new forum, you can finally use passkeys to login. That was about time!

    Of course, you could ask if a forum is still useful, with so many social media networks out there where you might already have an account, and met a lot of users. You can now use your login from some of those networks to log in here. And by posting here, your question and data is stored on our servers and not automatically shared with a whole social media network.

    We'll also start using the forum for small bits of information, announcements and more again.

i recently downloaded and installed spybot search & destroy. when i open it my desktop goes black it is as if i started in safe mode, everything is hugh and will not fit on the screen. this is the only program that does this. when i close spybot search & destroy my desktop goes black and then returns to normal.
i have run anti-viruse, anti spyware,malware, i have deleted s&d files, nothing seems to work all suggestions are welcome. larry

Just a wild guess:
  • Using Windows explorer navigate to:
    • C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy.
  • Right click on SpybotSD.exe and select "Properties".
  • Click on the "Compatibility" tab.
  • Under "Display settings" if "Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution" is checked:
    • Uncheck it.
    • Click the "Apply" button followed by the "OK" button.
