Updated to CCleaner 3.11.1541 downloaded from both FileHippo and Piriform on Windows 7 64 bit. CCleaner now always crashes when attempting to empty the recycle bin and fails to delete the files in it, both when there are files in it and when it's already empty. If the empty recycle bin option is not selected then CCleaner runs successfully.
Your bin may be at fault and needs resetting. Instructions.
Windows will create a new bin at reboot.

It seems strange that downgrading to 3.10 it would run without crashing if that was the case, but the issue is gone. Thanks.
This also happens on my Vista x64 box (crashes consistently when emptying recycle bin):

I am sorry to hear that cleaning RB is causing you problems with CCleaner v3.11.
We haven't been able to reproduce this issue. We are working on that.
Could someone send us a Memory Dump File created by this issue? This will definitely expedite our work.
Please keep us posted of any further detail you might have.
Thank you for your support
Same problem on BOTH of our HP dv8t's under Win7 Ultimate x64. I never had such a problem with ccleaner before this last version.

I emptied the recycle bin on both of our PCs, as suggested by kroozer, and indeed this worked fine.

I just installed v3.11, and it makes a grunting noise trying to access A: drive with the
empty recycle bin checked. Reverted back to v3.10 now. Using XP SP2 system.

Perhaps the recycle bin reported trash to be purged from the Floppy drive A:\
Well version 3.11 does annoying make the floppy drive access for some reason each and every time when using 'Cleaner->Run Cleaner'. It used to only do that when a secure deletion mode was enabled. I hope Piriform can get rid of that behaviour.

That's a very good find, and thank you for sharing that info! Unticking/disabling the cleaner 'Empty Recycle Bin' gets rid of that floppy drive access on my system which I'll leave unchecked until it's fixed.
Thanks, we'll look into this.
Reporting same behaviour here. CC now access floppy drive while cleaning.
Notice the floppy access today also
Haven't specifically tried to empty Recycle Bin, though it is ticked as a regular cleaning task along with many others. And I don't have a floppy drive. However CC 3.11 analyses OK but crashes when attempting to clean. Below is a copy of my Event Log Viewers account of the situation:

Have reverted to 3.10 pending a resolution.
Might as well add a big thank you to PiriForm for all the other versions that have worked just fine for me.
Dunno if this will help, but here is a stack backtrace from the crash via VS 2010.
The CCleaner64.dmp file exceeds my "1.95MB global upload quota."
Can you please PM me a Memory Crash Dump file created by this crash? It normally has the ".dmp" file extension.
If you not sure where it is located/saved, you can try to analyze "System->Memory Dumps" rule in CCleaner.
Thanks
Note: the name of the file will be slightly different than the one in the snapshot.
Due to the fact that dmp files can be very large and our forum has uploading limits, you can use services like rapidshare.com or yousendit.com to send us any Memory Dumps file.
Thank you so much for your support.
Good News!
With the help of our member rdefuria who kindly provided us with a memory dump file, we were able to come up with a possible solution for the crashing while cleaning the Recycle Bin.
Also, we the help of our member Andavari, we were able to improve how floppy drivers are accessed when cleaning the Recycle Bin.
Because we can't really replicate these problems in our test labs, we would like to ask if any of you would be interested in helping us testing this interim version of CCleaner.
If you are interested, please PM me and I will forward you instructions on how to download and run some testing.
Thank you very much for all your help and support.
Thanks, we'll look into this.
This issue is not only in the latest version of CCleaner, it is also in the latest version of Defraggler.
So I hold v3.10 and v.2.6 Defraggler v.2.6.
I will hope you can fix it.
