  1. Hello pantherman and welcome to the forum. :)

     

    A rather obvious question first, are you choosing "save" and not "run" when faced with the download box.?

     

    You can install over the top of a previous version as this will save your settings.

  2. Luckily I have managed to get some of the questions I needed answering answered elsewhere, by either google or pm's. I did manage to sign into opera webmail though and got spammed straight away!

  3. Did you just run the cleaner, or did you scan for issues as well?

    If you scanned for issues you would have been prompted to make a backup of the issues which by default is put in "my documents".

     

    Had you noticed any problems before hand such as slowdown or malware/virus problems?

     

    Have you tested to see if your system WILL shut down after 5 mins or so if you wait, in which case it could be caused by a different problem.

     

    When you say restart do you mean re-boot, and your computer is able to boot from a cold start?

     

    Have a look in the event viewer to see if there is an error logged at the time you try to shutdown.

     

    Also this may be of interest

  4. I have just had a look on the site and this is a beta with the hope of the full version not coming out until sometime early next year.

     

    It would be difficult to know where the problem is with cleaning as beta softwares, as you know, can be unstable, and this seems to be the case at the moment.

    I know some schools are having to use this software which by the way has DRM protocol.

     

    Also the beta has no ads but from what I can see, when the full version come out (free) it will pay for itself by "providing context-based ads in the user interface of the live version" OR you can pay and opt out of the ads!

     

    By the way, welcome to the forum :)

  5. Hello Lamb888 sorry to read about your problem (by the way you don't need to shout in big letters!)

     

    Your problem is not a common one to ccleaner users and can sometimes means some settings on your computer were not as they should be, had you recently changed user accounts perhaps?

     

    Glad to hear you made a back up when you did the issues scan.

     

    here is a ccleaner guide in case you haven't seen it yet.
