Solved CCleaner Start


@f14tomcat
I don't know why you have the Upgrade arrow in the CC toolbar, but I don't have it. Maybe something in CC knows I have a license for it. 🤷‍♂️

Probably one of my six lines in the registry. State sig, maybe, with its long alphanumeric string. 🤷‍♂️ 🤷‍♂️

Mine is the Freebie. You can see the truncated Free next to logo.

Mine, too. You're looking at my screenshot, not yours, to see the "truncated" Free. Mine stays at the Free Portable, because I don't enter the key. If I enter the key, the title bar changes to CCleaner Professional, even though the files still say it's the free portable. And if I register the key and un-block the "phone home" function as well, all sorts of evil things start to happen, especially -- my four lines in Piriform CCleaner in the HKLM of my registry become 40+ lines, almost all of which begin with (Cfg).

Well its clear for everyone , this CCleaner is a very tricky piece of software .
Its getting "smarter" after each update , with " Optimizers " , Diver-updaters " , etc.
Im thinking of completely uninstall this unreliable software..............:look:

But it’s still a reliable and efficient tool for the jobs I want it to do. I use it just once a day, usually, on each machine, to check the registry for errors I’ve created during the day, to manage my accumulated restore points, and to clear the day’s accumulated junk cookies and cache files. That takes well under sixty seconds, and I close it down and run my little images.
I just ignore the other stuff. So it’s clear from my active participation on the CC forums and my running discussions with the support team that I’m a CC evangelist.

I also use Wise Disk Cleaner, but one has to be more careful with it.
