Henely Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 I'm using Windows XP Home version OS. If the /auto command line option is used, the tray programicon must be closed manually after cleaning.I've set the disable monitoring from this page too.You are forcing me to use v4.17.0.4808 because I don't careto take the time to close the app after running it every time.(when the /auto should do this but doesn't anymore) Thank you.

Admin MrA Posted October 6, 2014 Admin Share Posted October 6, 2014 Hi Henely, I have been trying to reproduce this on my own system, but have not been able to. These are the steps I took: 1. (Fresh install of Windows XP Professional SP3) Install CCleaner Free and leave settings as default 2. Open CCleaner > Options > Monitoring > Disable "Enable System Monitoring" and "Enable Active Monitoring" 3. Close CCleaner 4. Open command prompt and move to the installation directory. 5. Use - ccleaner.exe /auto 6. In the tray, I can see the CCleaner icon, the animated brush starts flashing, then the CCleaner logo leaves the tray. [ I have also tested with the "Minimize to System Tray" enabled] Could you please compare these steps to yours and let me know if there is anything different? Have you changed any of the cleaning settings from default? Added any Includes or Excludes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henely Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 I decided to try it one more time, and it still did it.However, I fixed it, and below is how.I found out that when installing, it used the lastccleaner.ini file and added nothing to it. (I had alwayschecked the 'use ini file' box. I looked at both ini's afterI deleted the original and it created a fresh one, and thefollowing lines were not in the original one that it hadbeen using:UpdateCheck=0RunICS=0UpdateKey=10/06/2014 06:23:31 AMMonitoring=0SystemMonitoring=0WipeFreeSpaceDrives=C:\WINDOW_LEFT=0WINDOW_TOP=0WINDOW_WIDTH=798WINDOW_HEIGHT=572WINDOW_MAX=0WipeMFTFreeSpace=1DelayTemp=0BackupPrompt=0HideWarnings=1(App)Custom Folders=TrueCheckTrialOffer=0After adding them at the top of my original ini file,it now works fine again. I had to use the bottom part of my original ini because I had about 80 custom files folders for cleaning. Thanks for your help. ps - I would like to add, these files were always inthe original install dir and not need now evidently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 6, 2014 Moderators Share Posted October 6, 2014 Monitoring=0 SystemMonitoring=0 A few people have posted on the forums since v4.18 was initially released about setting those to 0, so that CCleaner will not enable the tray icon. Make sure you're using the newest version of CCleaner v4.18.4844 by downloading it from Piriform (to insure you actually have the newest version) which is supposed to fix the monitoring.

ghysler Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I experienced the exact same problem with CCleaner 4.18.4844; after cleaning with /AUTO the tray icon would stay visible and I had to manually exit the application. As per instructions Heleny posted, I first enabled save settings to INI file and added all above mentioned entries to the bottom of my INI file, and auto close was suddenly working again. But because most settings were now double listed in my INI file, I started comparing them. The only option that was not in my original file was: CheckTrialOffer=0 Edited the INI file to only leave this newly added setting, and auto close works! So this particular option seems to have been the problem for me. Note: I had upgraded to the old 4.18 build, prior to upgrading to build 4844.

The only thing needed from those posted settings were these: Monitoring=0 SystemMonitoring=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghysler Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 The only thing needed from those posted settings were these: Monitoring=0 SystemMonitoring=0 These monitoring settings were already part of my INI file, but CCleaner would not close when running with /AUTO. Only after adding "CheckTrialOffer=0" this would work properly again (although I do not even know what this setting actually does). So it seems to me this is a bug in CCleaner caused by upgrading from 4.18 old build to the current 4.18.4844 build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johan77 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Can confirm ghysler's statement, after adding "CheckTrialOffer=0" all back to normal.What an effort, kept me running i circles for days, thanks to Heneley where I noticed it for the first time.
