Cheeky monkey :P I paid for this thanks lol.
Yes you're right :) Better to save up and buy! best way.
The beta doesn't show the false positives any more
the only thing it shows now are the immunization entries
and they are
PUP.Optional.Legacy, [Key] - HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{B9507101-E464-4B3B-A4CB-291AAEDD94F2} PUP.Optional.Legacy, [Key] - HKLM\SOF...
Try using the beta, see if that elevate the false positives. However, if your software is obtained in illegitimate ways (I know music software can get quite expensive), it might have some form of virus or malware attached to it. You can never discount the possibility.
Have you noticed anything else weird/out of the ordinary on your PC? Can you try booting into Windows "Safe mode with networking" and see if you can do any of the actions through that. Otherwise, I would recommend doing a thorough malware check just in case.
Full and thorough malware check:
1. Restart your PC in “Safe mode with networking.” 2. Install and run RKill to kill malicious processes...
I detected this in all my Pcs

Since PUP is a potentially unwanted software, it might not be an infection, just some rogue application running or installed on your PC. Do a thorough scan with Malwarebytes and see if it helps to deal with the issue. Also, you can try searching for the folder manually, as the path is listed and remove it that way. If you have issues, kill the process with the task manager and then remove it.
Did you remove previous versions of the software from your PC and are you sure you are using the latest version? Make sure you are running only one instance of anti-malware software.
Here's the log... I still get that one PUP.Optional.Legacy result, dammit.
So it's really an infection after all?

False positives can happen from time to time, nothing new there. If the application is interacting at a system level and is not known, it will flag that it as a potential issue. AdwCleaner getting bought by Malwarebytes did nothing but good, so I am not sure. You can report the file or software that is causing the pop-up.
