AME Integrity Check#

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

In the event that you suspect an AME installation has been compromised, we recommend using ameck, a tool for checking the integrity of an AME installation.

Usage#

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

Once downloaded, simply run ameck.exe.
