Hello,

Sorry for the late answer.

Can you please give a try to the following version: https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/files/1042/

Re: False positives?

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.

Here's the log... I still get that one PUP.Optional.Legacy result, dammit.

So it's really an infection after all?

Can you share the debug logfile? (click on Tools > Options > tick Debug and do a scan/clean to trigger the bug. Then, share the file C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner_debug.log).  

FPs ?

Are these reg keys FPs ?
