Donald E. Smith Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Hi, Speccy indicates the Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro 4.0 is still installed on my old XP desktop after being removed years ago. I've searched the registry and removed numerous leftover pieces/junk referring to Agnitum and Outpost Firewall Pro none of which is apparently the Key (pun intended) Speccy uses to extract this data. Anybody have a clue where it gets this info? Thanks: DES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted August 9, 2015 Moderators Share Posted August 9, 2015 have you also checked the AppData and Program Files folders? Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

Donald E. Smith Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 Hadn't prior as this kind of stuff is taken on as housecleaning after uninstall. But did anyway again just in case, with no leftover results anywhere. This why I started with the registry. Then went through an older embedded Winapps.ini for CCleaner just to see if Agnitum or Outpost Firewall Pro was in there? Nope. But hummm... there is a CCleaner super extender, CCEnhancer I stopped using long ago, with many more apps included I could check too. Thanks for reminding me about that!

Moderators mta Posted August 9, 2015 Moderators Share Posted August 9, 2015 try running CC with the /EXPORT switch, some documentation can be found here; http://www.piriform....line-parameters it'll create a winapp.ini file that will detail where it is finding references to those programs you mention.

login123 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Did you search the registry manually for outpost, agnitum, and maybe feedback? I mention feedback because from time to time Outpost creates a file called Feedback.zip. Be careful. As you probably know, messing with the registry is dangerous. The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

This is the best/correct place to start ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Donald E. Smith Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 I posted this question over on the Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro forum and was pointed to a cleanup utility they have (Clean.exe) for removing installations in addition to using the WIndows Add/Remove Programs. It needs to be run from Safe Mode, but got rid of whatever hidden entries where ever they may be. I certainly couldn't find it. Speccy now indicates the Windows firewall is Enabled as in fact.

login123 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 An interesting find over over at the Outpost Forum. I will also need the remover file sooner or later, I use Outpost Firewall. So thanks for posting your results. The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud.
