Moderators nukecad Posted September 14, 2016 Moderators Share Posted September 14, 2016 Do you have a link to where you saw this? *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning? See this link:https://community.ccleaner.com/topic/52668-tracking-files/?tab=comments#comment-300043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators hazelnut Posted September 14, 2016 Moderators Share Posted September 14, 2016 Go here https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/malicious-software-removal-tool-details.aspx If you use XP it will say not supported in red on page. If using a later OS look at the system requirements link on that page. CCleaner documentation can be found here https://www.ccleaner.com/docs/ccleaner Support contact https://support.piriform.com/hc/en-us/requests/new support@ccleaner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
login123 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Win xp here. I clicked on the blue link "Change Systems" and it went to a page with the same URL, but it then showed xp as supported in the "System Requirements" section. It offered to download Windows-KB890830-V5.39.exe, but Windows-KB890830-V5.39.exe will not download. The file that will download is Windows-KB890830-V5.40.exe and it will not run on xp here. Had a bad moment there, thought the mind had finally gone. So I backtracked and cobbled together this picture. Doesn't really matter, Hazelnut said it all more concisely, but it's nice to know I am not yet round the bend. The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

Moderators Andavari Posted September 14, 2016 Author Moderators Share Posted September 14, 2016 That's the page I tried to get it from also from login123's screenshot. I had thought they were going to keep issuing it for XP until 2018, I think I read that somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
