GordonWayneWatts Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) (#1) OK, the 1st bug was this: CCleaner claimed it needed to update to 4.18.4844, but when I tried to, the most recent update available was 4.18.4842 - the same update I was running! (#2) Secondly, I see two (2) CCleaner processes in Windows Task Manager when I run CCleaner (instead one -as in times past), and then - get this: Even when I close out of CCleaner, I still see one process running... what up, dawg!? (#3) not related to CCleaner, but there is a relic image of a previous action on the screen (but I add this find as anyone here might help me: For what it's worth, I have to reboot my computer to get rid of this ghost image). (#4) Bonus question: If I want, simply, to get rid of any and all cookies, can I safely chose to "opt-out" of the intelligent cookie can option? PS: Please see the images attached, here, for details. Thx! Gordon Wayne Watts in Lakeland (between Tampa & Orlando), Fla. Edited September 29, 2014 by GordonWayneWatts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonWayneWatts Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 and after you do that, read this; http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=41860&hl= Cool - thanks for the tip - I unchecked it, and sure enough, that "extra" process disappeared. ** PS: Does anyone know what the difference between "System Monitoring" and "Active Monitoring" is?? Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted September 29, 2014 Moderators Share Posted September 29, 2014 ** PS: Does anyone know what the difference between "System Monitoring" and "Active Monitoring" is?? Something I'd like clarified as well. I believe System Monitoring is the PC, CC looks at your level of garbage and self-starts if it hits the trigger point. Active Monitoring is keeping CC itself up to date. But that's just my (un)educated guess. I couldn't find any official documentation on the Piriform site.

dvdbane Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 by enabling System Monitoring or Browser Monitoring, Active Monitoring will be enable too if Active Monitoring for CC update, what about option to check for update in "Settings"?

GordonWayneWatts Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 by enabling System Monitoring or Browser Monitoring, Active Monitoring will be enable too if Active Monitoring for CC update, what about option to check for update in "Settings"? Yeah, I noticed that too -- If you check sys monit. then it auto-checks Active monit., and make you have to manually uncheck it. The message I get when I try to uncheck the 2nd one (Active Mon) is: (Title) "Disable Active monitoring" (followed by "!" in triangle in front of later text) (Text) "Warning - this action is not recommended. Active monitoring will ensure that CCleaner is kept up-to-date and your computer is as clean as possible." (line-break) "Are you sure you want to do this?" This strongly implies that MTA was correct in his/her guess that the Active Monitoring is for updates. - Thanks again, to both of you, DvdBane.

Northerner Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (#1) OK, the 1st bug was this: CCleaner claimed it needed to update to 4.18.4844, but when I tried to, the most recent update available was 4.18.4842 - the same update I was running!The same thing happened to me. At first I thought 4.18.4844 applied only to the paid or professional versions. So can I download 4.18.4844, for the free version of CCleaner, or is there some reason for staying with version 4.18.4842? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators hazelnut Posted September 29, 2014 Moderators Share Posted September 29, 2014 For the free version of 4.18.4844 see here http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=41860 Support contact https://support.ccleaner.com/s/contact-form?language=en_US&form=general or support@ccleaner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy2 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 - Piriform still needs to make that link point to the proper newest version. - CC's GUI needs to provide a better explanation to make the difference clear(er) between the 2 "Monitoring" options. I was confused as well. (Who reads those manuals nowadays, right ?). System setup: http://speccy.piriform.com/results/gcNzIPEjEb0B2khOOBVCHPc A discussion always stimulates the braincells !!!

Moderators Andavari Posted September 29, 2014 Moderators Share Posted September 29, 2014 - Lots of confusion about the new version of CC when I surf around on this forum. That's because Piriform never explain a new feature, it's left up to end-users to figure it out up until they post it on the docs site http://www.piriform.com/docs.

Willy2 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 But who wants to read that documentation on line ? How many people do that anyhow ?

Moderators Andavari Posted October 1, 2014 Moderators Share Posted October 1, 2014 Most people won't read it or help files in general. However to understand the new feature it's useful, and now available in the docs: http://www.piriform.com/docs/ccleaner/ccleaner-settings/changing-monitoring-settings-ccleaner-free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However to understand the new feature it's useful, and now available in the docs: http://www.piriform.com/docs/ccleaner/ccleaner-settings/changing-monitoring-settings-ccleaner-free I never read docs or readme files in 15 years of using computers and never will. I think it's better if we have like a pop up caption for each feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 3, 2014 Moderators Share Posted October 3, 2014 I think it's better if we have like a pop up caption for each feature I do too, I always appreciate it when a program has that ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
