Does anyone know how I can resolve the issue with CCleaner always indicating that I need to update Slack on my system.
I previously had Slack installed on my Windows 11 system, but I’ve since uninstalled it.
Here’s what I’ve verified
- Add/Remove Programs: Slack no longer appears.
- CCleaner > Tools > Uninstall: No Slack entry listed.
- Command line check:
C:>dir slack*.* /s/b File Not Found
C:>
CCleaner keeps showing that it needs an update.
To investigate further, I ran the following PowerShell commands to check for lingering registry entries:
Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall* |
