Usage

You can download the tool by going to the latest release and selecting ameck.exe from the Downloads section.

Summary

While AME installations are generally very resilient, certain user actions can trigger Windows to perform the self-healing process, causing previously removed programs like Microsoft Edge or Windows Update to appear, such as:

  • running /sfc commands

  • installing certain pirated software

  • installing software that have significant privileges over a system, such as Microsoft Edge or antiviruses

To find out more about potential causes for self-healing, take a look at the AME Self-Healing Report.

In the event that you suspect an AME installation has been compromised, this tool can be used for checking the integrity of an AME installation.
