CCleaner v5

Stapp, your version(v5.46) is an older one!
the one I posted about refers to a new BETA on the 15 of Sept..(v.5.47.6700 )
thank you

 

cool my bad...

 

Yes, even the most ardent supporters must be having their doubts now.

That sid, I seem to have escaped issues using the PortableApps.com version.

 

Is using old outdated software a risk or not? Does not make sense not to update software because users think its the boogeyman.There is something called choice and you can just find another software.

 

It can be. I know of one time that there was a problem with CCleaner and Chrome after one of Chrome's update. That time CCleaner had to be updated also, to work OK with new Chrome version.

 

Clean-up for me = Two consecutive sweeps: #1- CClnr 4.18.4844 64bit, #2- Wise Disk Clnr latest.

When the fit eventually stops hitting the shan, I shall update to CClnr's latest. Until then...

 

Fool me once... I dumped this thing after the first incident and will never use it again.

There have been too many issues with it lately. I dumped CCleaner last night.

 

Norton doesn't like that version.

Privacy checkbox to collect data on the portable version v47 sets itself back on if you turn it off. anyone else?

Edit: I see it is a problem from Stapp's link. They never give up do they....
workaround is HelpImproveCCleaner=0 in the portable ini

 

Completely agree with you!

 

I have HelpImproveCCleaner=0 with 5.46 Slim ini
does HelpImproveCCleaner=0 go away with 5.47 ini ?

 

​

CCleaner Pro, updated using the custom install. Setting remains, no problems.

 

Where's the 'shake your head' emoji?

 

this is such a joke..they are falling apart right before our eyes

 

They turned this program into a spy, like goo, ms, fb, ya, za. So many to mention cant even list all the crap.
But the masses (deplorables, and the uninformed ) will keep them going.

Thanks to Wilders, and gHacks some will listen.

 

I had it set off and somewhere along the way it changed. Not sure when though. I just noticed it in v47. Since I also have CCleaner blocked, I wasn't always checking the .ini

 

Okay. Since 5.47 was pulled. We'll see what happens with 5.47 re-release. Thanks
