CCleaner Portable v5.90 - Custom Clean Reports "0 Bytes Cleaned"

I ran a Custom Clean with the current CCleaner Free Portable v5.90 today and noticed an odd glitch. CCleaner found ~ 240 MB of files ready to be cleaned when I clicked Analyze, but when I clicked Run Cleaner it reported "Cleaning Complete - 0 Bytes Removed".  Note that all open programs (e.g., File Explorer, Firefox etc.) were closed before I started the Custom Clean.

I checked my hidden C:\Users\<myusername>\AppData\Local\Temp folder and confirmed that all files older than 24 hours had actually been purged (note that my setting at Options | Advanced | Only Delete Files in Windows Temp Folders Older Than 24 Hrs is ENABLED) so the "0 Bytes Removed" message was obviously incorrect.

I closed CCleaner and re-launched a few minutes later, and this time a Custom Clean ran as expected, even though it only found a few files to clean.

I normally only run CCleaner once a week on Sundays and just updated to v5.90 on 25-Feb-2022 so I believe this is only the second time I've run a Custom Clean with v5.90, so I'm not certain if today's error was a one-time glitch or a reproducible bug.
