Hi, we're advising all users to update - thanks :)

A new release (5.35) inmediately after 5.34. Was release 5.34 secure?

I would assume it's because of "New digital signature."

So in other words: More secure to avoid another security breach.

Hi, Yes that's correct. Although version 5.34 is malware free, we wanted to go the extra step and issue a new certificate and hence the version bump to 5.35. Thanks :-)

When did the upgrade process change? When I opened the program this morning I was told 5.34.x was available and was asked "Would you like to install the update now?" Clicking "Yes" immediately installed the new version. Previously I was asked if I wanted to visit the website to download the new version. I much prefer the old method. That way I could see what had been changed, wait a few days to see if there were any issues, have a copy of the new version on my computer, etc.

I suppose I will have to disable “Automatically check for updates for CCleaner” now and make a habit of visiting the website to see if there is a new version.

I don't think the actual upgrade process changed, I believe the update push was to assure that you received the secure .35 version. Though autoupdate (no website visit) may come soon (already a pro feature)

Well it did change if its "pushing" the update rather than having the user go get it. Its done it for two new versions so who knows if they'll go back to how it was. Honestly I've never seen a program with so many updates. Are there that many changes to cleaning temporary internet files? I should have stayed with an older version then never would have had this issue.

Normally ccleaner is released once a month. The fast update schedule is a side effect of the recent malware
