Hmmm... Something's not right

I just installed v5.70 and looked at Tools > Software Updater. It lists VirtualBox as needing update, but the version numbers are not correct, and the current version is already installed. Could it be related to the dash in VB's version number?

Thanks for the report, we'll try to get this resolved.

Should be fixed now. :)

My CCleaner v5.70 now shows VirtualBox as an up-to-date program. It was not an earth-shaking issue; thanks for the fix. It appears to replace the dash in the extended version number with a dot, but leaves the digits intact. Not sure why Oracle chose to be non-standard, but that also is not shaking anything. Thanks, Stephen.

I've downloaded a new copy and re-installed 5.70.7909, but when I run it now it still says, "Hmmm... Something's not right". What might it be?

Threads have been merged so that previous issue can be seen.

Is this new message coming from Windows or from CCleaner? 

Could you screenshot it?

The error message is from CCleaner. It appears after a Health Check but before cleaning, instead of the usual "your PC is not feeling well..." I've installed 5.71 and the message is back to normal.

Aah, yes I see what you mean.

I agree that it is particularly bad wording, and could well look like something is actually faulty with your computer.

It is nothing to worry about if that message is coming from Health Check, it is not the same as if it is coming from Windows. 

(The CCleaner developers are sometimes are a bit careless with their wording).
