Usually, this is not the issue (unless you are trying to run the installer not as an admin with elevated access (UAC). 99.9% of this issue (error opening file for writing) is caused by ccleaner still being open (perhaps minimized to the system tray) or renaming the installer "ccleaner.exe"

 

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION

DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)

ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

I am using Windows 8.1 Pro. When I try to install CCleaner then I get this error message. I cannot delete the CCleaner folder from C Drive, even I cannot open that folder too but that folder is Empty folder. Please help me to solve this problem...

 
I tried to attach some snapshots but I couldn't do that. Please inform me how to upload images...

upload to image hosting site such as imgur and paste the direct link here...use the "Image" code

open Task Manager and check if there is ccleaner.exe process running

End it and run the installer again

no need to delete ccleaner folder
