CCleaner in System Tray after closing program.

CCleaner for Windows CCleaner Windows Bug Reporting
1

CCleaner remains open in the system tray when the program is closed, with Minimize to System Tray in settings under advanced turned OFF. I am running the latest version of Windows 11 and CCleaner as of this writing. Is this a bug (I assume it is) or is there a setting I am missing to disable this from happening?

Turn off both Smartcleaning and auto update

The turning off Auto Updates fixed it. The smart cleaning was already off.

Thank you!

It isn't a bug, it's simply the way that Windows works.

Those options (Smart Cleaning and Auto Updating) each have to run a background process to work properly. 

So if either one, or both, are enabled then Windows puts an icon in the system tray to show that CCleaner is running something in the background.
