• 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.

notifications for previously allowed actions return after every reboot.
I allow the actions again. (the actions were the deletion of registry changes I made deleting malware entries that spybot couldn't make automaticly.) Or they returned after reboot.
When the notifications were pending, I looked in the registry, to confirm they were gone. They were. How do I make "spybot s&d" stop the notification loop?:hair::hair::hair::hair::hair:
 
Please go into Spybot > Help > About and tell us what version of Spybot you are running (i.e Spybot - Search & Destroy x.x or x.x.x.xx).
 
Please post the portion of the Resident.log that shows the changes you are having problems with.
  • There are several ways (4 listed below) to access the TeaTimer's Resident.log file:
    • Right click on the TeaTimer (Spybot-SD Resident) system tray icon and select Show Log.
    • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident.
    • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced mode > Tools > View Reports > View Previous reports. Select the Resident.log file and open it.
    • Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the Resident.log file located in one of the following directories:
      • Windows 95 or 98:
        C:\Windows\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
      • Windows ME:
        C:\Windows\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
      • Windows NT, 2000 or XP:
        C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
      • Windows Vista:
        C:\ProgramData\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
      Double click on Resident.log file and it should open with Notepad.
  • To copy information from the log into a post in the forum:
    1. Copy the information into the Clipboard:
      • Highlight the portion of the log that you want to copy.
      • Right click and select Copy.
