I close my Chrome browser always; CC has begun (recently) with the dialogue boxes saying Chrome has to be closed to run, etc./ force closure.
Why does CC not detect that Chrome is already closed?

CCleaner & Chrome version?
Check this: http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=40285
I have the same problem over the last several versions of CCleaner, and have posted a thread on this some time back but there was no response or solution. I have mixed emotions that others are having this problem, though it does seem to validate what I was experiencing at the least.
I currently am running Windows 8.0 / 64 bit / Dell laptop
CCleaner 413
AVG AV 2014 (current)
The problem is not consistent but happens frequently to me.
I am running three versions of Chrome on my system as test beds; Google Chrome, Opera, and Software Iron. All of these are current versions as of the date of this post.
Of these, Software Iron is the only Chrome-based browser that is getting any regular usage suggesting that the error message CCleaner gives is assuming all versions of Chrome are "Google Chrome" which is not the case of course. All browsers were allowed to install their standard installation in their default loactions. None are portable versions.
This problem arises even when Google Chrome has not been launched what so ever for days or weeks.
I have followed the suggestion to turn off background tasks in Google Chrome and Software Iron but that has not worked. Further, that is not a readily-available Settings menu item in Opera's version of Chrome. And again, like Google Chrome, Opera is almost never used.
CCleaner gets to a certain point in its process then reports that Google Chrome is still running and asks if I want to quit that program in order to proceed. I acknowledge that and CCleaner tries but fails to close Google Chrome (or what ever is running). It then offers to Force Quit Google Chrome, which it does when i allow it, then finishes its operation.
After the force quit operation I don't see the issue again. It usually returns after the SWIron browser is used, but again, not always. This is very perplexing.
Since CCleaner hangs at this point and refuses to proceed until Chrome is stopped, there is no ability to allow the program to proceed on its own. You have to babysit it through this process.

@Sunclad,
Have you opened Task Manager at the point CC stops and checked for ANY running Google products; like Google Update for example?
And when CC does to the force closure, recheck Task Manager and see what it killed?
