I have Windows 10 64-bit. I did a clean install. CCleaner gets stuck when wiping Internet Explorer history.
The entries listed below in Winapp2.ini are causing this issue. In [MS Search More*] entry, FileKey1 thru FileKey8 are locked locations. Whenever CCleaner tries to wipe the files there, it causes issues for Internet Explorer. I suggest the removing of these entries from Winapp2.ini.

you should post this in winapp2 thread, not here
if both entries cause problem in win 10, prefer add DetectOS instead of removing it

I actually started this thread before I found the cause.
