Did you make a back up of the registry when CCleaner offered you the option to do so?

We don't give spyware/malware removal help here anymore. See item 10 here. https://community.ccleaner.com/announcement/15-forum-rules/ You might also want to have a read here (just for more info only) https://www.2-spyware.com/remove-akamaihd.html

Did you use the registry cleaner part of CCleaner?

I don't have sleep or hibernate enabled either. nukecad you are making it sound as though it is a waste of time turning off fast start-up... it isn't. It solves lots of issues. And I'm not confused.... turning off fast start up is a good idea.

If you turn off Fast Start-up it won't happen again because every shut down then operates the way it used do in previous Windows versions, in other words it really shuts down. It's one of the first things I do on my machines.

What version of Windows 10 and CCleaner are you using? As nergal says, it is compatible, I am typing this in Win 10 and have CCleaner installed.

Personal preference... I am not keen on running Malwarebytes in real-time (paid) I find it too aggressive. The free version is enough for me.

Started happening today, see here https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/windows-7-users-suddenly-cant-shut-down-their-pcs-how-to-fix/

Exactly. It's six and two threes isn't it. You have to get the updates anyway, either during the install or after. I prefer after so I can have a local account

All you need to do to avoid having to have a Microsoft account is to not have an internet connection when doing a clean install and selecting 'I don't have an internet connection'. That then gives you a local account Only connect when installed.

Yes it must be something you altered. It's broke for users who haven't altered things. I don't have a Microsoft account either

Today Microsoft broke the search menu for all Win 10 users. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/windows-10-search-is-broken-and-shows-blank-results-how-to-fix/
