Testing the latest version on multiple machines, one is showing this in the My Apps list, but I've never installed it, much less through PMPC and neither the app nor the installer for this app exist anywhere on this machine.

I would like to know why it's being detected and where PMPC thinks it is located, but there is no other info available.
Thank you!
Can you please check what app has the version of 140.0.80.000 in "Add/Remove Programs" and let me know?
There was nothing in the Apps/Programs & Features list with that exact version.
However, a search for 140.0.80.000 in the registry found it in a few locations, all linked to "HP Scanning", which looked to be part of an old HP printer driver.
Said HP printer driver bundle was in the Add/Remove Programs as version 14.0. I uninstalled it, but no change.
I then started manually deleting keys from the registry and checking PMPC each time a key was deleted. Farbar finally went away when I deleted the key located in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
So the key you deleted that fixed this is related to "HP Scanning"?

Correct - it was HP Scan/HP Scanning, which is part of their printer driver bundle for all-in-one printers.
