Ccleaner wont clean

Ccleaner skips all the cleaning of Edge Win 11 23H2

I have turned off everything

the only way Ccleaner will clean edge is after restarting my computer

In Windows Taskmanager look for Microsoft Edge, highlight it and click 'end task' bottom right of page.

Then use CCleaner.

It is not CCleaner who is stopping you cleaning it is Edge who recently seems to have decided to do this.

It will stop asking you if you click "Don't show this message again". It will do as you clicked and stop asking you.

Uninstall and reinstall CCleaner and it will (should) start asking you again.

Already tried that

doesnt work

Yes but that's something microsoft changed, it's not properly exiting all the time and starts with machine idle (if you don't have windows pro and access to group policy editor)

I have Win 11 Pro 23H2

Microsoft has not changed anything

Ccleaner needs to bring back the Force Closing option

1. It is Microsoft that has changed how Edge functions.

2. As said above it is you yourself who has turned off the option to Force-close Edge.

<strong><u>You</u></strong> turned it off by ticking "<em>Do not show me this message again</em>"

And of course you cannot untick it now to turn it back on - because you have told CCleaner not to show it to you.

To get that option back now you will have to Restore CCleaner to it's default settings.

Make a note of any/all other settings that you have changed because after restoring the default settings you will need change them back to how you want them.

Open CCleaner and go to Options>Advanced.

Click "Restore Default Settings".

If CCleaner's settings are saved in an .INI file "ccleaner.ini" change the warning settings from False to True in it and re-save it.

I'm guessing it may be this one (could be another one altogether though), example:

ShowEdgeCleanWarning=False

Change to:

ShowEdgeCleanWarning=True

If that's just it, no need to uninstall then reinstall, or change all the settings. Those False/True settings should be in the Windows Registry if that's where CCleaner's settings are stored, but I have no advice on changing those since I only use the very easily editable .INI file ccleaner.ini.

Will try it

It worked kinda

Didn't used to have the option to never see it again

any way to change in the registry to auto close Edge

I couldn't find Ccleaner ini file

i haven't noticed any issues with Edge.

to stop Edge from running in the bakground, after you have closed it, in Edge's settings, in "system," disable "startup boost" and "continue running Edge in the background." then Edge will actually be closed when you close it. then, when Edge is actually closed, ccleaner can remove the junk-files, like cookies and cached webpages, that are associated with it.

if those settings are already disabled, toggle them on and off again to reset them.

The tickbox option to never see that message box again has always been there.

You will not have a ccleaner.ini file unless you have told CCleaner to always save your settings to one.

Any way to force auto close of Edge

obviously ccleaner does not do that.

if you read my post, above, you can adjust Edge's settings to where Edge actually closes when you close it, where it is not necessary for ccleaner to force it to close. otherwise you will have to deal with the prompt where ccleaner asks you if you want it to close Edge, in order to be able to remove the junk-files that are associated with it.

No, edge changed something and those option aren't enough to stop edge from continuing running after exit some of the time

Hi dbaker1:

Open your MS Edge settings at Settings | System and Performance | System (or enter edge://settings/system in the address bar) and make sure that Startup Boost and running of background extensions and apps are toggled OFF. If those settings are already disabled then toggle them ON and back OFF again as redwolfe_98 suggested. That solved the problem crizal reported 16-Oct-2023 in their topic Old Problem With Edge Is Back?.
