    @XhenEd - yes, I remember. D

    In that image you downloaded the CCleaner desktop installer.

    You had a separate issue with the slim version where AG blocked a write to an *.ini file. You sent an image of it to Barb.

    Also, this is important, in both cases was IDM integrated into Chrome - or - were you doing downloads manually in IDM by entering the download URL ?

    I forgot already. I'll just try to download this now.

    Are you using IDM to manually download files by manually entering the download URL - or - do you have IDM integrated into your browser (Chrome) ?

    I have IDM extension integrated in Chrome. In fact, when I visited the link above to download the standard installer, IDM "caught" it immediately for download.

    Anyway, this is just now, following the method I described above:

    I will install Chrome and integrate IDM into Chrome. I should be able to duplicate.

    I tried manual URL download. I get block events, but CCleaner can still run.

    This will require either a long or separate / multiple reports for using IDM manually (manually entering download URL) and with IDM integrated into Chrome.

    Thanks @XhenEd

    You're welcome!

    I hope you can reproduce it. :)

    Which you install 1st ?

    IDM ?

    Chrome ?

    If you try to download and install ccsetup521.exe a second time - is it still blocked ?

    with IDM and chrome and Appguard:

    1- Install Chrome.
    2- install IDM; check the following boxes : check Chrome in "capture download" , check "run modules..." , check "use advanced browser integration..."
    3- open Chrome and let the IDM extension to install.
    4- install AG (or put it on learning mode when step 2-3).
    5- add IDM to guarded apps

    I'm using all 3 softs without any issues.

    p.S : if you have tweaked Chrome with "chrome://flags/#extension-content-verification" it will hamper IDM extension.

    i tried, i don't even need to right click the url, the widget appears to download it when the url is highlighted.

    @XhenEd what OS version are you using ?

    Do you have IDM Chrome extension installed ?

    I tried installing IDM extension, but Chrome will not allow it.

    Anyhow... I am trying to replicate the block of CCleaner install, but I am missing something; CCleaner is installing even with IDM as a Guarded App.

    It is "flaky" behavior. I am trying again.

    I think I installed Chrome first.
    What I did yesterday was to download CCleaner 5.21 through the Guarded IDM. After that, I ran it using the "run now" option that is presented after the download is complete. Then CCleaner installation will fail in the process.

    IDM extension is installed automatically after IDM is installed. One needs to close Chrome first, though.
    I'm not sure why Chrome won't allow yours to install IDM extension.

    Do you mean you manually entered the CCleaner download URL into IDM - or navigated to the CCLeaner download URL in the browser ?

    Did you set AppGuard to Allow Installs before selecting the "Open" ccsetup521.exe option at download ?

    I cannot reproduce. As long as I set AG to Allow Installs prior to selecting Open, CCleaner will install.

    Perhaps I am missing something... that is why I am asking. I know it is a pain, but it appears there might be a real problem so I am doing my best to replicate.

    I have tried probably 10 times or more. LOL...

    I get this block:

    08/18/16 00:21:56 Prevented <ccsetup521.exe> from writing to <\registry\machine\software\wow6432node\google\google toolbar>.

    but I don't get the block to c:\program files

    I didn't manually enter CCleaner download URL into IDM. What I did was just clicking on the download button, then IDM "caught" the link, and that's it.

    Yes, I had set AppGuard to Install Mode before the CCleaner installation. The screenshot above shows that.

    The blocking report you got is similar to what is shown in the screenshot. The only difference is that instead of "ccsetup521.exe", mine shows "CCleaner Installer".

    I wonder why yours is successful, but mine isn't. :(

    My laptop has just recently undergone an OS reset. So, this should be clean of all tweaks.

    ZAL is On.

    I just downloaded CCleaner through Chrome (not IDM), and ran it from there, and it was successful. CCleaner installed without a block. AppGuard is set on Allow Installs while I did this.

    so when you download it with IDM and try to run the installer from IDM , it is blocked, right ?
