Moderators nukecad Posted November 17, 2022 Moderators Share Posted November 17, 2022 Are you trying to run CCleaner as a Stardard user? (ie. not an administrator). There is a known permissions issue, which is being looked at to fix. For now though we have a workround that installs CCleaner so that a standard user can open it as normal, see this: If however you are a Windows administrator account and CCleaner still isn't opening then please tell us which antivirus you are using. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?

Honza Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Hello, I have the same problem. CCleaner Portable won't start (no CCleaner window appears), I just see in the task manager that there is a task called CCleaner. The same problem is with version 6.04.10044, which was working without problems until three weeks ago. I run CCleaner as administrator. Windows 10 x64 22H2 with all system updates in the month of November. I have ESET Internet Security 16.0.24.0 antivirus. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted November 21, 2022 Moderators Share Posted November 21, 2022 I wouldn't have thought this installation/permissions situation would apply to the Portable which isn't installed. Having said that we have recently seen some users who are using the Portable from the C: drive rather than as actually portable. Are you running the Portable from a USB stick? *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?

Having said that we have recently seen some users who are using the Portable from the C: drive rather than as actually portable. Are you running the Portable from a USB stick? Yes, indeed, CCleaner portable 6.06.10144 and older runs normally from a USB flash drive. When a new version of CCleaner comes out, I always download the new portable version to the system C:\ drive and try it from there first, and if everything is fine, save it to a USB flash drive and use CCleaner portable from there normally. Since I couldn't run CCleaner portable from the C:\ drive, I didn't try again from the USB flash drive... Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted November 23, 2022 Moderators Share Posted November 23, 2022 Thanks for comfirming that the Portable runs as normal if used as it's meant to be - from a USB stick. (I'm not sure if that is now intentional to prevent people running it from the C: drive rather than installing CCleaner like they should? But it might well be). *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?
