  1. Hey,

     

    If you can't see this in the search results then can you please look for the blue CCleaner Cloud icon in the system tray? If you right-click this and click Preferences you should be able to get to the desired Window.

     

    Once there please go to the Debug tab. If the service is running please click "stop" then click "Start" again when it has stopped. If it wasn't running then please just click "Start".

     

    If this doesn't work could you please submit a ticket to us from the help center? One of our agents will be able to take you through further troubleshooting steps.

  2. Hi Adam03!

     

    mta did raise this to us back in January and I can confirm that it is something that we are currently looking into. I'm sure you will have noticed that we haven't updated Defraggler in this time as it is something that we are still working on :)

  3. Hey!

     

    The Erase Free Space has been removed from MacOS at a system level meaning that this functionality no longer works. We are going to be releasing a new version of CCleaner Mac soon which takes this feature out for Sierra users to prevent further confusion.

     

    I'm sorry I couldn't bring you better news!

  4. Hey,

     

    Yes, CCleaner Cloud is still developed :)

     

    We're currently working on a lot of behind the scenes work which is why there hasn't been a noticeable update for a while. Don't worry though, there are some updates in the pipeline, we just don't have a set release date yet :)

  5. Hi!

     

    When you remove the restore points, the only part of that restore point that will be removed are the items that are unique to that restore point. This means that if one part of the OS is the same in multiple restore points, it'll only be saved once and all the restore points point to the same place. If you then remove one restore point, it will won't remove any shared information as this will render the other restore points only half functional.

     

    This essentially means that you won't make a huge space save unless you removed all the restore points however CCleaner won't allow you to delete your last restore point as a safety feature.

     

    The main focus of this tool is a privacy feature so that if you don't wish your computer to be able to be restored to an earlier state then you can prevent this.

     

    I hope this helps :)

  6. Hi Jay,

     

    This is MalwareBytes flagging the Windows process. Although this occurs when you're opening CCleaner, it's not actually CCleaner that it's reporting, but a false alert based on the information in the Windows system process. You may find that MalwareBytes are able to assist you with this detection specifically :)

  7. Hi, the "Internet Explorer -  Temporary Internet Files" file is one that is recreated by IE after it is cleaned. This file grows over time and when CCleaner cleans it, it deletes the whole file and then IE recreates it at 5121kb. It will slowly get bigger over time from this point if you don't run CCleaner.

     

    All in all, this means CCleaner will always display that much data as cleaned as this is what it is actually cleaning. I hope this helps :)

  8. Morning everyone.

     

    The the latest version of CCleaner will force IE to close to be cleaned regardless of what operating system you're using, because it has to do this to effectively clean both IE 10 and IE 11.

     

    You can revert back to and older version however this will not be able to completely clean IE, although the program will give the impression that it has - even if you're running Windows 7. The latest version of CCleaner provides much more in depth cleaning but requires the application to be closed.

     

    Both Edge and IE (regardless of the OS that they're installed on) use the same data storage techniques which require them to be closed to be effectively cleaned. This means that even if we had separate versions for Windows 10 and 7, they would be exactly the same.
