View Full Version : Executable parameter order?

So I have SpyBot set to scan automatically every morning. Until I knew about the /onlyspyware switch, it would just wipe out everything and I'd have to sign back in to all of the websites I visit every day. I finally found out that there is an /onlyspyware switch, but I can't get it to work. I tried using it without also including /autofix and that wasn't working, so I tried putting /autofix in there too and it still doesn't work. Is there a certain order the parameters need to be in or something? I tried the following to no avail:
/autocheck /onlyspyware /autoclose /autoupdate
/autocheck /autofix /onlyspyware /autoclose /autoupdate
/autocheck /onlyspyware /autofix /autoclose /autoupdate
/autofix /autocheck /onlyspyware /autoclose /autoupdate
/autocheck /onlyspyware /autoclose /autoupdate /autofix
/autoupdate /autocheck /autofix /autoclose /onlyspyware

Thanks!

Please post a copy of Spybot's Configuration.ini file. By default the Configuration.ini file is stored in one of the following folders:
Windows 95 or 98:
C:\Windows\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy
Windows ME:
C:\Windows\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy
Windows NT, 2000 or XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy
Vista:
C:\ProgramData\Spybot - Search & Destroy
Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the Configuration.ini file. Right click on the file and using the "Open With" option open the file with Notepad. To copy and post the content of the file, right click on the listing and select "Select All" then right click on the listing again and select "Copy". That will copy the content of the file into the Clipboard. Paste (Ctrl+V) the contents of the Clipboard to a new post in this thread.

To the best of my knowledge there is no order to parameters.

To keep your regular cookies from being deleted go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced mode > Settings > File Sets and uncheck the following item:
Usage Tracking
You should recheck the following item so that tracking cookies are detected:
Cookies.sbi

Will this affect my automated scans using command line parameters, though?

Of course changing the file sets used during a scan affects the scan no matter how the scan is initiated.

Yep, that worked perfectly :) Thanks so much.
