V.A Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Hi, I have been using CCleaner for a long time already under Windows XP . It was starting up immediately when I double-clicked its icon - no problem ! Now I have it installed under Windows Vista and it has the following strange behaviour. When I want to start it by double-clicking its icon, then it takes about 30 to 60 seconds before the program opens on the screen. I have uninstalled/re-installed already several times to no avail. Any help available please ? Thanks V.A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigathus Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Do you have the latest version: v1.41.544 ? If you don't, click on "Check for updates now" link on the bottom of CCleaner program window http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/builds http://www.piriform.com/docs http://www.postimage.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted July 14, 2007 Moderators Share Posted July 14, 2007 It's possibly either anti-virus related, or operating system related. I don't know if the CCleaner .exe is compressed or not, but if it is that will cause many anti-virus scanners to more slowly allow the file to be opened as they scan it - however 30 to 60 seconds in your case is 100% completely unacceptable in my book.

V.A Posted July 17, 2007 Author Share Posted July 17, 2007 Hi, thanks for both replies. My OS = Vista Home Premium My Antivirus = OneCare 1.6 I have uninstalled OneCare but this does not solve the problem. It must have something to do with Vista, because it ran perfectly well before under XP-home edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
