CCleaner for Windows CCleaner Windows Bug Reporting

Hello,

I need help to permanently clean out obsolete registry keys, which reappear at every scan. I think it's a problem with avast but I'm not sure.

If someone can give me the solution to get rid of this problem.

Thanks

Are you certain they belong to Avast?

If yes, then in ccleaner you should exclude the keys in question from within ccleaner. They aren't seen as connected to something because you antivirus is doing its job. If it announced to the world that they're connected it would be easier for viruses to break Avast.

If not certain, what makes you think they might be part of avast? Do you use virtualbox software?

I found the solution, just temporarily disable the self defense of Avast to allow to clean these registry keys.

Thanks
