AIM analysis module in Multiwfn only needs .wfn file as input (.fch and .wfx file are acceptable too), Gaussian will not be invoked in the whole analysis process. Anyone has banned by Gaussian can use other quantum chemistry packages to generate .wfn file. Only in a few functions of Multiwfn (e.g. calculating deformation density) Gaussian may be involved, g03 and g09 are supported.
