Sorry. Bleachbit, by default, is default-false and it removed the default=false parts off winapp2 to help save space. I must have forgotten to readd those there.
EDIT: I edited my entries and fixed those.
Thanks, I was hoping there was a simple explanation and thanks for fixing these.

The following entries I either shrunk, reworded, or fixed grammar issues in the warnings only:
[bitDefender Total Security 2014 (Logs)*]
LangSecRef=3024
Detect=HKLM\Software\BitDefender\Bitdefender Total Security
Warning=This removes logs created while scanning external drives and other unneeded scan logs generated by Bitdefender scanner.
FileKey1=%AppData%\Bitdefender\Desktop\profiles\Logs\*|*.xml
[CCDump*]
LangSecRef=3024
DetectFile=%ProgramFiles%\CCleaner\CCDump.exe
Warning=This removes files winapp.ini, winsys.ini, winreg.ini and regkeys.output.txt from the CCleaner folder. These files are retrieved from CCDump.exe.
FileKey1=%ProgramFiles%\CCleaner|winapp.ini;winreg.ini;winsys.ini;regkeys.output.txt
I do not recommend that "Default=False" be removed from [CCDump*]
Also, during my process of reviewing some of the warning, I stumbled across this entry:
[scribe (Finished Jobs)*]
LangSecRef=3021
Detect=HKCU\Software\NCH Software\Scribe
Warning=This will copies of files related you have run through Scribe.
FileKey1=%AppData%\NCH Software\Scribe\Done|*.*
The warning makes no sense. Does anyone know what it is suppose to be saying and could edit it for me?
I suspect that this should be "Warning=This will remove copies of related files that you have run through Scribe"
and based on my post above, the Bitdefender entry becomes: Again I do not recommend that "Default=False" be removed from [bitdefender Total Security 2014/15 (Logs)*]
[BitDefender Total Security 2014/15 (Logs)*] LangSecRef=3024 Detect1=HKLM\Software\BitDefender\Bitdefender Total Security Detect2=HKLM\Software\BitDefender\Bitdefender Total Security 2015 Warning=This removes logs created while scanning external drives and other unneeded scan logs generated by Bitdefender scanner.

Modified Entry:
- Changed Name from [bitDefender Total Security 2014 (Logs)*] to [bitDefender Total Security 2014/15 (Logs)*]
- Changed Detect to Detect1

What is package cache? please observe the description convention and explain new entries and changes in your post (unless it's glaringly obvious).
There are websites that state files in Package Cache should not be deleted

Modified entry: [Recent items*] Modified warning message to show undesirable affect to the Windows 10 File Explorer Quick Access list.
[Recent Items More*] LangSecRef=3025 DetectFile=%AppData%\Microsoft\windows\recent\customdestinations Default=False Warning=Running this will remove task lists from the start menu (the expandable triangle next to some applications.

Modified entry: [snagIt 12 More*] Removed *.sdf from FileKey1. This is causing CCleaner to remove a file named Snagit900.sdf which contains the address of where SnagIt stores pictures during the capture. See pic below

I don't know why you don't have this location. Let me look into this.
I do have a long list of keys at :
HKCU\Software\Classes\Local Settings\MuiCache\805\52C64B7E
and
HKCR\Local Settings\MuiCache\805\52C64B7E
and
HKU\Software\Classes\Local Settings\MuiCache\805\52C64B7E

You're right I made a mistake. It should be: HKCR\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\MuiCache
It is also at HKCR\Local Settings\MuiCache, but I suggest that we should not wipe it. It belongs to system.
Hmmmm.... I do not have that key either. Under HKCR\Local Settings\............\Shell, I only have BagMRU and Bags as subkeys.

Install November 2014 update rollup for Windows and then check.
I have had that rollup installed since it was first issued...on all my Windows 8.1.1 x64 Pro machines. All MS updates are current on my machines...Windows 8.1.1 x64 and Windows 10 x64 Technical Preview.
On a system startup, I get 131 log files entered into the Scm folder.
-
My entry was better because I excluded the files that are locked. But now it does not matter because I think Microsoft has removed Scm logging from Windows in the latest update.
I am seeing newly created log entries in the Scm folder with Windows 8.1.1 x64 Professional with all the latest hotfixes for Windows 8.1

You should rethink adding this entry. It is included in almost all known privacy eraser programs. I'll send you the names of the programs in a PM.
[Windows SCM Logs*]LangSecRef=3025Detect=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\WindowsDefault=FalseFileKey1=%WinDir%\System32\LogFiles\Scm|*.*ExcludeKey1=FILE|%WinDir%\System32\LogFiles\Scm|*.EVM*The Task Scheduler stores its run logs in the Scm folder. If the log files are cleaned out of this folder, it will cause the "Last Run Time" of a scheduled task to be cleared and set to Never. If a scheduled task has the option set "Run task as soon as possible after a scheduled start is missed", this will cause this specific program to be started because the Task Scheduler thinks the program failed to run.
If the user does not care about these 2 "results" within his/her task scheduler, then there are no other problems with cleaning out this folder.

You forgot the bar | prior to the file name on each of the FileKey lines.
It looks to me like you need just one FileKey entry by using a wildcard *.chm
Filekey1=%WinDir%\Help\nvcpl\|*.chm
BE SURE to run an "analyze" to check your code before you run a "clean"

The paths in the entry belong to PowerDirector. I think we should merge this into PowerDirector and remove this entry.[CyberLink Crash Dumps*]LangSecRef=3023Detect=HKCU\Software\CyberLinkDefault=FalseFileKey1=%CommonAppData%\CyberLink\Boomerang\*\|*.xml;*.dmpFileKey2=%LocalAppData%\VirtualStore\ProgramData\CyberLink\Boomerang\*\|*.xml;*.dmp
Cyberlink PowerDVD also has a Boomerang folder at this same path. Although I cannot confirm this, I suspect that PowerDVD stores its dumps in this same path. PowerDVD installs/uses Cyberlink's Boomerang.exe as well. Therefore I suggest this code not be changed.

I will look into the settings and applications. I'll be back on this.
You say that you have no problems with CCleaner v.5 on your Windows 8.1 systems(*).
Do you also have KB3000850 installed as I do ?
(*) Win. 10 is a different matter...
Yes, I have KB3000850 installed on all my Windows 8.1.1 x64 systems
-
I'm running V5.0 on more than one 8.1.1 x64 Professional systems and also on Windows 10 Technical Preview with no problems. Can you identify which cleaning component is causing the hang? Uncheck a block of say 5 items at a time and run the CCleaner to see if it completes. I would start on the Applications tab first. Once you isolate which cleaning item is causing the hang, then perhaps the developers can find the cause. There may be a file on your system that is corrupt that is causing the issue.
You could also see if starting CCleaner via "Run as Administrator" with all Monitoring turned OFF via Options>Monitoring helps.
-
Could this failure be somehow related to the Windows Update KB3000850 ?
I installed it 10 hours before the CCleaner v.5 update.
Mulaw,
Run "Disk Cleanup" in Administrative Tools. Right click on Disk Cleanup and select "Run as Adminstrator". Check mark all the items that Disk Cleanup displays to clean. One of these items should be Windows Update Cleanup and it will be many megabytes in size. The cleaning process may take an hour or so if you have never done this before or because of the huge update of KB3000850. After Disk Cleanup is completed, try running CCleaner again.
Here is a MS link concerning Disk Cleanup:

It might be a good addition to detect if the "Default=False (or True)" is missing.
