After many years of good service CCleaner v5.63 7540 (64bit) now takes a minute to run on Windows 10 (1903) after clicking on the icon. This means that I usually get 3 or 4 versions starting eventually!
Anyone know why?

Is it opening and not doing anything for a while, or just not opening?
From what you say I'm guessing the second.
There are a few things that could cause a delay at launch:
If it's winapp2 then trim it down or remove it altogether.
If it's the firewall then making the CCleaner folder an exception in you Anti-Virus (or Windows Defender) usually cures it.
If it's a pending Windows Update, then install the update.
Never found a real cure for the Skip UAC, but that seemed to be a Windows thing that cured itself. As a workaround if you turn on active monitoring then CCleaner will start in the background with the computer, and so you shouldn't see the delay when you launch it yourself because it's already running.
This is just CC free not Pro. It was not launching for 30-60 secs. Today all OK. I don't know what I have done to fix it! Checked and unchecked boxes only.
winapp2.ini is as yet unexplored territory for me! CCleaner has evolved into a complex beast.
Many thanks for all your suggestions!

At least you know a few things to try if it happens again.
Maybe yesterdays storm was messing up the power supply and/or the server connection, so CCleaner couldn't connect to check for updates, etc.?
