It didn't crash, so the log you are asking for is not there. Here is the scan log though.

Re: False positive?

Greetings,

WiseCleaner comes with PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) during installation process. We stand against such practices. This is why we decided to target it.

There are some nice and free alternatives to WiseCleaner:

These two software are edited by Piriform which is a well known company.

Re: WinZip - false positive?

Same here .. I deleted all Winzip folders - ran Adwcleaner - all OK. Re-installed Winzip Pro v21, and up popped the Winzip folders again. I then ran a full Malwarebytes scan, nothing. Then Nortons Antivirus .. nothing, then Microsoft's monthly malware application scan .. nothing. So, I'm not sure what's going on with Adwcleaner. And there's silence from Malwarebyte AntiExploit Premium.

They are registry files that are ...

Re: AdwCleaner crashes my laptop running Windows 10

Hello,

Seems strange, but we'll need to have a look to the logfile to confirm that it's indeed AdwCleaner the cause of your issue, but it's very unlikely.

I think it is due to the removal of a map "Windows/sources" but I am not a specialist. 

Can you give me more details on that? When and where did you see "Windows/sources"?

Can you reboot with this liveCD: https://toolslib.net/downloads/...
