I will live with the errors & the Windows message. CCLeaner still works for what I need it to do. I only get the Windows message after CCleaner completes its' operations & I close it. If the Features (which might be useful to some people) could be turned off from the GUI then I would use that method. I do NOT need CCleaner to update drivers ,update software,, offer third party, or optimize performance. Why waste time & my computers resources allowing a program to do what I do NOT need. I need it to be a cleaner & that is what I use it for. @nukecad I have never written any software & at 70 I DO NOT plan on starting. I found your reply condescending . No help at all. As you can see I just joined the CCleaner forum. I'm sure discouraged from posting again. My mistake I thought this was a forum to report a problem. Then maybe get help. That this was something the "Developers might not be aware of & want to know.

I know the cause. I trust CCleaner or I would not use it. I have disabled certain features of CCleaner that I do not need in my registry. CCleaner works fine with these changes. The problem is if I do not block CCleaner "phoning home" with my Windows firewall (Advanced) CCleaner adds the features back in the registry. This adds the features back to the GUI. The blocking with the firewall results in this error message: It also creates an Error in Event Viewer. I would like CCleaner to change the programing to where I can disable certain features in the registry but not need to block CCleaner with the firewall.
