Latest version of CCleaner stops working at 27% of scan

The latest version v5.28.6004 (64 bit) has a bug that I haven't had in earlier versions. I start the scan which is usually quick, but now it tends to stop at 27% at thumbcache_1024.db Sometimes it'll work but, more frequently it freezes scan at 27%.

can you go to that file and folder and manually delete it?

that .db file may be in use by some image browser so is locked and not deleted.

is it always the same name? if so, perhaps add it to the EXCLUDE list.

I added it to the exclude list as you suggested and, so far, it seems to have fixed the problem. Thank you

excluding that one .DB file shouldn't effect your crap removal regime as it's probably only got a small file size.

Similar trouble here :(

I've been running CCleaner for years without problems, on all my PCs ... but after updating to v5.27.5976(64-bit). This PC has Win7 Pro 64-bit as the OS, Current version CCleaner v5.28.6005(64bit) still crashes at around 56% (Mozilla Thunderbird) on my primary PC.

Crashing @ 56% of Cleaner scanning

FWIW
After reading others posts here, I unchecked the "compact database" option for Mozilla Thunderbird and it completed without crashing.
