Hidden objects are usually locked system files that can't be scanned.
The two hidden objects will be C:\hiberfil.sys and C:\pagefile.sys, can you confirm if this is correct?0 -

Have just run again on my desktop -
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\parseautoexec
[NOTE] The registry entry is invisible.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Power\heuristics
[NOTE] The registry entry is invisible.
The original question was asked after running it on a friends laptop which I don't have access to at the moment.
