AdwCleaner 6.0 registry threats

Hello.

Can you please tell me what these threats are? I never had an issue with AdwCleaner before 6.0. Also, the first 2 threats are located in my registry (related to Sony software??), but the third does not exist. I checked for it multiple times.

Hello again.

Now I've used the newest version 6.0.1 and got 5 errors. My computer is running fine so I'm hesitant to delete these without knowing exactly what they are. Can you tell me, one-by-one, what these threats are precisely? I think the first four are related to Sony software running on my Vaio.

By the way, Malwarebytes scans come up as completely clean.

Thank you.

Hello,

You can uncheck the two first elements (FWToolsForSOHLib.FWToolsAsSOHLibVersion & FWToolsForSOHLib.FWToolsAsSOHLibVersi.1), but you can safely remove the four others, they belong to malicious elements.
