CC 418

I just downloaded/installed CCleaner 418 and got a pop-up stating the following: "CCleaner is now monitoring your computer and will let you know when it needs cleaning."

How do I disable this feature on the Slim version 418?

Does this work for you Alice?

Active Monitoring can now be disabled by:

  1. Open CCleaner, then click Options > Monitoring

  2. Disable System Monitoring by unticking the box next to “Enable System Monitoring”

  3. Disable Active Monitoring by unticking the box next to “Enable Active Monitoring”, and click Yes when the confirmation box appears

How I would I know if the monitoring has stopped (been disabled) and is not continuously running in the background? I use the Slim version.

Slim version has nothing to do with the ccleaner version itself, slim is referencing the fact the installer isn't bundled with Google-Product bundleware

I understand but I just wanted to know "How I would I know if the monitoring has stopped (been disabled) and is not continuously running in the background?" After doing what Hazelnut suggested,

If there's a ccleaner icon in your system tray then it is still running (also check your task manager)

The CC icon in lower right of the screen has disappeared. I presume that indicates the CC monitoring is no longer 'running in background.'

Make sure it disappeared and didn't just move to the hodden icons (the ones under the arrow that don't always show on desktop)

No, I do not see it when I open the 'hidden' icons. Also, not in Windows Task Manager / Applications.

Then yes it's not running in the background :)

Many thanks for your help.
