Eatmeavast Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Still does the ninja install, ffs. 2017 laptop crawled with avast on it so it got uninstalled back when id purposefully installed it. Found malwarebytes actually did what it was supposed to unlike avast, ie not ignoring malware running while freaking out over every zip and exe. Honestly running adblockers is more reliable than avast, and windows defender is leaps and bounds beyond yalls boomerbait. Figured id run crapcleaner, remembered chrome in the installer so went thru making sure nothing extra, avast wasnt even mentioned. Considering yalls lumbering ui, maybe it was what i assumed was TOS, where the middle was an artifact copy of the desktop and accept and decline buttons on either side. Aka boomerbait, "i hafta accept everything when installing" bs. If your product is good wont hafta bundle it, much less make an opt out vs opt in (either is still a slap in the face for those of us on metered conx) Running cc when avast icon pops up, have to wait half an hour of uncancellable install still goin, then uninstall it, and the worthless junk installer it uses never frees windows so had to restart just to uninstall cc too. Seriously. Eat me w the "oh it says it right thar" bs. Just downloaded it off your site minutes before. Shouldnt need to load a site in the installer to know what im accepting, esp since it looks like everyone elses crappy TOS section. Thanks for making me have to go wipe yalls feces out the registry. Heck speccy still never figured out amd cpu temps, go figure Bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted July 13, 2020 Moderators Share Posted July 13, 2020 Quote the middle was an artifact copy of the desktop and accept and decline buttons on either side There is a very infrequent issue where the offer image does not load and only the 'Decline' and 'Accept' buttons are showing. It is being worked on to try and find what may be causing it. There may or may not also be a circle of dots and some grey text showing. It happens so infrequently that it has been difficult to even capture a screenshot of it happening, but that has now been managed - If this should happen to you then simply click on the 'Decline' button and nothing other than CCleaner itself will be installed. The developers are looking into what may be causing it, but as it happens very infrequently it's proving hard to pin down any cause. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Keep getting logged out of websites?

So if anyone else get a screen that looks like the one that he posted above - we'd love to hear from you. For everyone else, if you get an AV offer in the installer (not the "if" - offers are not always made at all) it should be rather hard to miss: Piriform Homepage - [CCleaner - CCleaner Mac - CCleaner Android - CCleaner Browser - Recuva - Speccy - Kamo] - Product Support Looking for your licence key, expiry date or download link?

wynford Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 This is why Windows Defender has blocked CCleaner as PUA... maybe developers will smarten up and remove silent installs of other apps or the same thing might happen https://news.softpedia.com/news/windows-defender-blocks-ccleaner-due-to-software-bundled-with-the-installer-530679.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, none of the offers are silent installs. And the risk of the AV offers slipping through unnoticed due to client connection failures was eliminated in October of last year. Since then only @nukecad seems to have found a way to break it - and even he hasn't been able to replicate how he did it.

I resent that somewhat. I didn't 'find a way to break it' - it was broken at the server end. I can't replicate it because I haven't tried to, - no point trying because it was broken at the server end. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Keep getting logged out of websites?
