Before i was aware of this post , i too tried running CCleaner from Windows 10 ( Creators Update 1703 ) and got this error message . " This app can't run on this pc . CCleaner doesn't work on this version of Windows . An updated app may be available ." CCleaner was automatically placed into C:\ Windows.old folder after Creators Update . Thankfully , Windows protected me from opening CCleaner as it would have damaged critical system files according to others here !
