Add the moment, no. I've seen a couple of others, too - but I've deleted the folders a while ago. I just though I'd bring this to your attention.

I'll post more cases, when & if I come across them. But the one I mentioned is solid one... it's been hanging there since I updated PerfectDisk some time ago.

Thanks. Then, for the time being, i'll wait for feedback and i'd suggest to "ignore" these iteams for the time being.

Oops, forgot to rerun a version check ;) New screenshot added.

P.S. Kyle, is it possible to delete posted attachments here?

Done.
Should i ignore path containng "\install*\" or "\*installer\" ? No side effect (like "\Revo Uninstaller\") ?

I think all these exceptions should be user-customizable, like a simple txt file in user profile with exception masks. We don't even need any UI for it (at least for now), since it will be a feature for power users anyway.

The syntax should allow both things:
1) exclude masks, e.g. "[-] \*install*\"
2) not exclude masks (must have higher priority), e.g. "[+] \revo*\"

Masks should be case insensitive, of course. Log file should reflect every final exclusion decision made from these rules for each processed item. Also, all current hard-coded exceptions should be moved over there.

This way we can handle this very carefully and make it better all the time with the help from community and without recompiling/upgrading SUMo itself.
