Moderators Nergal Posted October 6, 2017 Moderators Share Posted October 6, 2017 Are you certain they belong to Avast? If yes, then in ccleaner you should exclude the keys in question from within ccleaner. They aren't seen as connected to something because you antivirus is doing its job. If it announced to the world that they're connected it would be easier for viruses to break Avast. If not certain, what makes you think they might be part of avast? Do you use virtualbox software? 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.

cleaneruser31 Posted October 7, 2017 Author Share Posted October 7, 2017 I found the solution, just temporarily disable the self defense of Avast to allow to clean these registry keys. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
