    Same problem with Windows 10 Pro. No "safe mode option" that I am aware of. I also run Zone Alarm Firewall and Antivirus and disabling that does NOT make any difference.
    I have been using Spybot without issues for years. Even bought a license once many years ago. It wasn't until Windows 10 and the new version of Spybot that I had experienced any issues.

    Same problem for me on Win7 Ultimate. Killing S&D after it hangs then running another scan yields far fewer reported items and then 'Fix Selected' quickly fixes them all.

    Same issue here on newest Spybot version, Windows 10

    Spybot froze when I clicked "Fix Selected" on spybot.png with 58 results.

    Ran it a second time (Spybot2.png) which only had 6 results, and Fixed right away.

    Exactly same problem. Have had it for months. Developer doesn't know why?

    Default Fix Selected

    I have had the same issue since I downloaded the program months ago. I hit "fix selected" and nothing happens. I hit it again and the program goes into "not responding." So I don't know if the issues are being fixed or not. I am a bit surprised that the developer of the program hasn't been able to repair that irregularity.

    Default Workaround

    This problem of Spybot hanging when try to "Fix Selected" started in last 1-2 updates. All you need to do is instead of fixing "all" at once is to fix maybe 10-15 at a time. Just work down the detected entries in small groups and you will find that you are able to fix all the detected problems and Spybot won't hang.

    I have the same problem with SPYBOT. No, I do not want to run in Safe Mode. No, I do not want to fix only a few items at a time.
    I'm frankly amazed that SPYBOT has not fixed their software problem. Or have they?
