CCleaner Memory Leak on Windows 10?

CCleaner just took up all my 16GB of memory within 10 minutes, and all other applications started crashing and windows noticed me that CCleaner is using too much memory.

The version is v5.24.5841 64bit and I just scanned my registry, clicked on fix all problems and then close and repeated this for a few times before this happened. This also happened on startup when it seems to have started itself.

- Did you disable the pagefile ? Or did you have a fixed size for the pagefile(s) ?

I have it set as automatically managed. The currently allocated size is 17408MB.

Also, I'm not sure why is it starting on startup even though in the settings I disabled it. Anyway I disabled it from task manager.

This time it ate all my memory and showed a pop-up telling me that I can clean 30GB of files... Pls I have 200GB still available and I don't need you to eat all my 16GB of memory to tell me that /facepalm

Do you have monitoring turned off or on?

If you have them on, try turning them off and rebooting.
