syncopator Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I find them extremely annoying and totally unnecessary. Can I get rid of them, or do I have to revert to a previous edition?

Moderators Nergal Posted December 6, 2019 Moderators Share Posted December 6, 2019 (edited) If you use the free version, you just have to deal with sales popups. However popups like "your browser has closed do you want to clean" then it's the smart monitoring option in ccleaner. They're only there for about 15 or so seconds, so dealing with them seems possible Edited December 6, 2019 by Nergal 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.

syncopator Posted December 6, 2019 Author Share Posted December 6, 2019 That's all very well, but earlier versions didn't intrude at all. I am going to have to test previous versions from oldversion.com. Equal rights for equal responsibilities. Equal opportunities for equal abilities.

I am going to have to test previous versions from oldversion.com. Things change, companies that wish to put out free software must monetize in some manner. These pop-ups may herald installers which don't have PuPs (no inside knowledge on this just speculating). As far as old versions the official place to serve these is at file hippo. Ones on other sites cannot be guaranteed safe. Finally, some versions (ones from recent year and older ones) may not be compatible with newer builds of windows 10.

Sorry, I was meaning what do the pop-ups say? Knowing what they say we can then work out what is causing them, and advise how you can stop them. The way to stop them will be different depending on just what they are saying. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'?

syncopator Posted December 7, 2019 Author Share Posted December 7, 2019 I've installed an older version. That's got rid of the intrusions. Equal rights for equal responsibilities. Equal opportunities for equal abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted December 8, 2019 Moderators Share Posted December 8, 2019 If you use Windows 10 it will eventually not allow you to use an old version at some point. What older version did you install? There are caveats using older versions such as bugs they've fixed in more recent versions. If using an older version that still has the ability to clean the Windows.old folder it can damage Windows 10, and some other possible Windows 10 damaging issues they've fixed.
