Any fix? thx Edited December 1, 2020 by johnywhy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted December 1, 2020 Moderators Share Posted December 1, 2020 If you have either, or both, 'Smart Cleaning' or 'Keep CCleaner updated automatically' turned on then they will run a background task and so Windows will put an icon in your System Tray. If you don't want to see that icon in the tray then you have to turn both of those options off. If you can't get it to go away with both of those turned off then come back. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?

kockarche Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I have the same problem. This occurs since the last update. My "Minimize to System Tray" and all "Smart cleaning options" are off but when i close CCleaner, it's still minimized to System Tray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With auto-update turned off, will CCleaner still check for update every time i run it? thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave the other new setting 'Send notifications when there is a new version of CCleaner' ticked. (That doesn't run a background task so no icon). *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?

That's a new option for users of CCleaner Free (and a change to how it used to work in Pro) and is one of the things that will now put an icon in the System Tray. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'?
