CCleaner will not run

I am using windows 10 and my ccleaner has always run perfectly until tonight. i run ccleaner every sunday night before i shut down the computer for the night and when i clicked on the ccleaner icon, it won't run and just takes me back to my desktop. i've tried rebooting my computer and that did not help get it started. any suggestions?

thanks,

david

What security software do you have installed ?

Any Kaspersky or Malwarebytes?

What build of CCleaner?

Yes I use Kaspersky security. It was cleaner 5.44.

See if this workaround helps

thank you for your advice but it did not work for me. i did check the top box in the advanced section but that didn't make it work for me. perhaps i need to do more than that?

win 10, KIS 18, CCleaner 5.44.6575 same problem, temporary solution, set compatibility with windows 8.

i called kaspersky this morning and they tried to get cleaner to run but could not. when they asked me to disable kaspersky, cleaner did run perfectly. so they're giving the problem to their technical team to try to discover why it won't work. they did an extensive search by turning off each of their settings but nothing worked. hopefully they will figure it out.llllllll

Please let us know the outcome of Kaspersky's findings :)
