Have you had a look in your Program Files to make sure the Google Chrome folder is gone?

Also what operating system are you using?

Also google have given this info on uninstalling it.

Perhaps your mistake is to retain Google Earth.

Last year after a long time not using it I launched it, and it demanded an update.

I permitted with due diligence an update to Google Earth,

and found I also had a gut load of Google Chrome.

I then ran Autoruns to see how badly Google had infected the bewildering array of malware startup facilities that Windows provides.

I purged all Chrome. I also purged Google Earth that brought the intruder into my property.

I have removed all google products!

I have added the registry and reinstalling CCleaner done and still shows the problem!

Thanks

Again. The issue here is that google leaves behind some trace

It has left something behind when uninstalled and that something WILL be one of the following things in this list

Detect=HKCU\Software\Chromium
DetectFile=%localappdata%\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
DetectFile2=%ProgramFiles%\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
DetectFile3=%localappdata%\Flock\Application\flock.exe
DetectFile4=%ProgramFiles%\Flock\Application\flock.exe
DetectFile5=%localappdata%\Google\Chrome SxS\Application\chrome.exe
DetectFile6=%ProgramFiles%\Google\Chrome SxS\Application\chrome.exe
DetectFile7=%localappdata%\SRWare Iron\iron.exe
DetectFile8=%ProgramFiles%\SRWare Iron\iron.exe
DetectFile9=%ProgramFiles%\Chromium\chrome.exe
DetectFile10=%localappdata%\Chromium\chrome.exe
DetectFile11=%ProgramFiles%\Chromium\Application\chrome.exe
DetectFile12=%localappdata%\Chromium\Application\chrome.exe
DetectFile13=%AppData%\ChromePlus\chrome.exe
DetectFile14=%localappdata%\RockMelt\Application\rockmelt.exe
DetectFile15=%ProgramFiles%\RockMelt\Application\rockmelt.exe

See result

See if it's right what I did?

???? wait why did you create a winapp1 with only chromium-based info? winapp1 will replace whatever is in the applications with the cleaning rules you set up in it. This is not what you want. . .

no if you don't want chrome to show you did the exact OPPOSITE of what you needed to do

To remove chrome from the ccleaner list, you need to find on your computer which of the items I listed above still exists and remove it from the computer.

For the first time ever, the latest version of CCleaner started listing Google Chrome Browser, although I've never had it, and that single entry being removed did it for me too.

Cleaned out quite a few other entries with reg edit with no luck, but that one hit the spot.

Thanks.

If you never had Google Chrome Browser, how did you get the registry key ?

Do you also use Google Earth ?

Or is getting a registry key part of the price of using Google Search ?

Paranoia strikes again ! ! !

Like most people I've had/have lots of google entries in my registry, some known, some not. I used Picassa for some time, and there were google browser helper plug ins already installed when the PC was new, as well as a google toolbar.

I gave up worrying about this stuff a long time ago, and I don't particularly care how it got there as it's now gone.

You could quite easily drive yourself up the wall worrying about what the likes of google, microsoft, and others have deposited on your computers. It's part of the cost of using their "free" software.

The alternative is to probably have no software at all.

I keep my paranoia for things deserving of it, and this type of thing isn't one of them.

I know you are correct,

but I am still recovering from the horror that they told me Google Earth needed some update,

and I when accepted they also installed Google Chrome without any opt out.
