Hello

Can you share AdwCleaner logfiles ?

You can get them from C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleanerC[xx].txt and C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleanerS[xx].txt

Please host them on https://up2sha.re/ and copy/paste the generated links here.

What does this mean? I don't wish to remove/delete it as it sounds ominous.

Re: False positive?

I have same issue too, adwcleaner find wisecleaner and Auslogics

HKLM\SOFTWARE\WISECLEANER

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Auslogics,

But I don't think it is a threat, when I click clean, my wise care 365 change to a Free version, I lost my Pro version, I had to reactivated it.

Re: False positive?
