After we have clicked 'Fix All Selected Issues' we currently must then click 'Close'. I can't see the reason for this. It seems redundant. I'd like the dialog to auto-close after clicking 'Fix All Selected Issues'.
Thanks.
Well, the dialog is the same for both the 'fix one at a time' prompt and the 'fix all.' even if you want to fix all, you may wish to scroll through them afterwards.
Extremely bad.
1.
Sometimes a registry key is deemed "in use" and is NOT offered as fit for removal.
After cleaning the keys that ARE fit for removal a second analyze MAY show that what was previously unfit is now fit for removal.
2.
Waiting for the user to close is polite - and gives assurance that the job was completed.
It would not be easy for the User to distinguish between a Satisfied/Complete termination and an almost BSOD abort.

"even if you want to fix all, you may wish to scroll through them afterwards."
Yes, that is a valid reason against. Thanks. Although, maybe that is reason to have a log that can be accessed after closing the dialog?

I think it's your grasp of how ccleaner works that is "extremely bad". You can't re-analyze with the 'fix' dialog open - so you need to click close... which adds strength to my suggestion.
Also, it's less "polite" forcing users to continually click redundant buttons - hence the suggestion. It's little different to a 'save' dialog - it closes once you click 'save'.
But the issue noted by Winapp2.ini re. users wanting to scroll through after fixing is correct.
Sorry, I thought you considered the job done and wanted Registry Cleaner shut down.
Also I am not sure that you would see any error reports after an automatic close of the dialogue.
Just because CCleaner tries to delete a key does not mean that Windows will allow it.
There are registry cleaners that will clean a key and then say it is deleted but never look to confirm removal.
It would be nice to find a cleaner that actually does double check and post a warning that access restrictions have blocked removal.
