[latest version freeware detected as virus by Zemana and 3 times on virus total]

Yes they can sort out false detections --I have told them of one or two in the past and received very prompt email acknowledgement. I am perfectly satisfied that this was a 'false' detection and have emailed them. I should emphasise Zemana is only promoted as a second line of defense.

Yes ofc. I use several different scanners to be sure. JRT, Malwarebytes, Kaspersky, HitmanPro, and Zemana.

Even if said to be f/p i don't like to see anything detecting anything. So that is why i delete ccleaner.exe and use ccleaner64.exe  instead.

No, i tested with virus total first ,then thinking it was ok just installed it. Zemana did not issue any warning--unlike the same procedure with the std download which did trigger zemana without me starting a scan manually. I also run webroot, and this did not object to either installation.

Zemana does not detect anything after you extract the installer and scan ccleaner.exe?

I got Zemana alert even on slim version "after" i extract the installer. I deleted the ccleaner.exe and use ccleaner64.exe instead just in case!

Yes thanks the 'slim' version doesn't trigger either zemana or virus total--so i presume virus free. May i ask what it is that's triggering the problem in the full version? I haven't noticed any toolbars.

Just curious, did you extract the slim version installer with 7zip before scanning the folder with Zemana?

sry about that. I used Zemana!

It is only giving this result on CCleaner.exe but not CCleaner64.exe

so i deleted the 32bit and use 64bit instead!

This is what i get after extracting the installer downloaded from your official site!

CCleaner.exe

So is this a f/p?
