New version rolled in, and I rebooted as it was suggested to me... I still get these results.

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.
Hello, never experienced problems with ADWcleaner, what happend since you are Malwarebytes? New CEO? The beta version tells me: PUP.Optional.DriverBooster But i have bought this registered program and installed for years and is not a PUP. Maybe for someone but nut for me. iTunes for me is a PUP but i need it for my bloody iPad.
If it would be a false positive, you would be safe, I am not sure it is. Have you tried doing a full scan with your anti-virus software and Malwarebytes? Did they pop up a false positive as well? It is always best to check with multiple anti-malware software before jumping conclusions.
These problems seems not solved in AdwCleaner v7.0.2.0 BETA2, yet... :-(

@Bernard82 : now..only NOW the pop alert old vers BUG has been finally fixed..BUT..i ask you:
in events log are you able to -clean- the events displaied..??..or are you forced to go to the c\adwcleaner folder and
delete them -manually-..??
isn't or not the SAME BUG about the Quarantine\issue..??..the gui does not works at all....
After the posted logs, can you try launching the application in "Safe Mode" see if it works then? If it does, try to do a scan with both software.
