Frequently when I use CCleaner, it requests to close out of the Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer 11 browsers although I don't use either of them. I suppose I can uncheck the Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer options so but is there anyone else experiencing the same issue?
What is your CC version? (don't say 'latest' )
A bit of background on IE. It uses libraries that are also shared with Windows, so even if you don't use IE, Windows still uses the same libraries, so CC thinks IE is running.
Have you brought up Task Manager to see what processes are running that CC thinks are IE ones?
Edge has been causing CC some headaches since it's release as Edge is literally evolving on-the-fly and CC (or rather Piriform) is always playing catch-up.
