When I buy the pro-version, so I get a key by email..
I will receive automatic updates during one year, and after at year my pro-version remains Pro on my PC
After one year I presume that I will be reminded that an update is available (that box is checked) o.k.?
How do I update then manually? Which option should I choose from the website of Piriform? The free- or the pro-version.
:-)
Thanks in advance for your answer
Sorry... I see that I have posted twice about the same.. :-)
So when I buy the pro-version, I have no <upgrade>button and get automatic updates 1 year long
After that year I retain the Pro-version (so without that <upgrade-button), but have to update manually.
I presume that I will be attended when an update is available. (that box is checked)
In that case (after one year) I wonder how to update. I will be guided to the website of Piriform and which choice do I have to make then? Free- or Pro-version? or what?
Thanks again for your kind answer :-).
in a nutshell, the answer is Yes to all you ask.
I can't vouch for what happens after one year, in the sense of what option you take as I have only had the Pro version for about 3 or 4 months.
But I have had to reinstall it for various reasons and I just download and install the Free version, then plug in the license key to make it the Pro.
The free version didn't have that large 'Upgrade' button until a few versions ago.
I think that it was about version 5.15 when it was introduced.
We (speaking of the mod team) were notified of its inclusion in January 2016.
is somebody else there to answer my question? about updates after one year?
I suspect it will become a manual process just like the Free version as although you'd have the Pro, it will be an unlicensed Pro so you should lose that added feature.
please tell it some more concrete; I don't understand.
The question was: when I've purchased pro, and will have to update (not upgrade) áfter the first year (because updates don't come automatic anymore), hów do I update than manually? with the free version of with the pro-version? and will áfter such an update the <upgrade>button doesn't show up anymore?
I'm not 100% sure as I have yet to go past my first year with the Pro license.
But I suspect after the year, since you lose the Pro features of priority support and automatic updating, you will have to manually update just like you do with the Free version.
So you'd either click the Check for Updates link in the bottom right corner of CC, or you just go to the Builds page of Piriform and get it yourself, like most people do.
You'd then download it, and install it.
But you still will have the Pro version but it will be unlicensed since your one year is up. So as far as your needs go, the Upgrade button will NOT show as you have no where to upgrade to, you are still on the Pro version.
Is there a reason why it is so important to get rid of that one, particular, little, button???

1) In the Free-version there's an option in which you can check a box to get informed when an update is available.
2) The reason why it's important to me to have ánd see that 5th unused <upgrade>-button in the left pane is, because I think it's surreptitious and it wasn't there in previous versions.
Why are you so bothered by one button?
If CCleaner was showing ad's I would understand (since I wouldn't be using it if it did), but a simple Upgrade button come on.
To remove upgrade button just open regedit go too HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Piriform\CCleaner and delete key "Brandover"="0". Sorry i was late to the party. I found this trick out by install older ver's to see what changed in the windows registry.
How do I get rid of this additional button?
edit ccleaner.ini
delete Brandover=0
the update tab will be gone.
