The CCleaner release notes at only date back to v5.75 (rel. I do not allow CCleaner to clean anything in my default Firefox browser after CCleaner v5.69 wiped all customized settings in Firefox browser add-ons if CCleaner was set to clean Internet Cache and/or Compact Databases in this browser (see APMichael’s 2 post in Problem with Firefox 79 – this “bug” is present in all CCleaner v5.69 and earlier versions and was caused by changes to storage.sync in Firefox v79 and higher in July 2020), and I only use CCleaner to clean my “backup” browsers and a few standard items on my hard drive like my Windows temp files (see attached images). That means I do not allow any of the unnecessary (and often buggy and potentially harmful) bloat that has been added to CCleaner in recent years like CCleaner’s PC Health Check, Performance Optimizer, Software Updater, Driver Updater, Bug Reporter, etc. When I unzip the ccsetup6 xx.zip file I only keep the minimum files required to launch the portable version (i.e., CCleaner64.exe, portable.dat and the ccleaner.ini configuration file I re-use for each new update) and only run manual Custom Clean scans. I have a 64-bit Win 10 v21H2 OS and run the current CCleaner Portable Free v6.06 from a removable USB thumb drive. Or if anyone can vouch for a later version(s) of CCleaner playing nice without intrusiveness, I’d welcome hearing about that, too. If anyone can suggest any other apps that perform all these functions safely with one or two clicks, I’d welcome hearing about it. And I can do this all with one click before shutting down (or with no clicks if I want to enable auto-run on startup). Can anyone shed any light on this? One thing I definitely want to avoid is browser history deletion, as I use browser history frequently - especially in Firefox.īTW, before anyone suggests that I can fully avoid CCleaner by using other tools such as Windows Disk Cleanup, please note that I rarely use CCleaner to do any deletions or other tasks besides these: (1) simple deletion of all cookies that I haven’t pre-designated as “keep” (all browsers) (2) simple deletion of browser cache (all browsers) and (3) importantly, pre-defined custom file deletions on a few folders per my designated deletion schedule. I don’t recall the details, but I think it was related to unintended file deletions from certain folder(s). My question before installing this version of CCleaner on the new computer: I recall seeing a warning awhile back that this-vintage version of CCleaner was not fully compatible with Windows 10. I have long been using Piriform CCleaner version (installed, not portable), which was the last (or at least one of the last) versions released before Piriform’s acquisition by Avast (and the issues that followed it). Until now, I have stuck with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit (and ESU updates) on my Lenovo laptop, but in December or January will be moving to Win 10 64-bit Pro on a new Lenovo. This version runs without crashing, with 0patch enabled and CCleaner not excluded.I see that there has already been recent discussion/mentions of CCleaner, but it doesn’t zero in on my particular compatibility question, hence this post. Later I uninstalled CCleaner Pro and installed an older version ( 64-bit) of CCleaner free (the free version so I could prevent it from automatically updating itself). None of these kept CCleaner from crashing. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling CCleaner. I tried making it an exception in Bitdefender. CCleaner (Pro) would crash upon startup with the following problem signature:Īdditional Information 2: 3a844e3fff63cca56b1e2588e17d8501Īdditional Information 4: e5c9ac4a741c114e4768ab3fc188762d I had this problem after installing 0patch.
