joearby Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I work mainly in Chrome, only open Firefox a couple of times a month. But every day I get dozens of notification windows telling me that "Firefox has Closed. Do you want to clean?" - Firefox has not been opened. It's a little annoying. Some kind of bug is telling CCleaner that a firefox window has opened and closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted February 1, 2023 Moderators Share Posted February 1, 2023 My first thought is firefox is opening in the background to update 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.

Moderators nukecad Posted February 2, 2023 Moderators Share Posted February 2, 2023 Although there is currently a Firefox update, if it's happening 'dozens of times' every day then I'd suspect something else. I'd suspect that some other app is opening Firfox in the background to check for something, possibly to check for updates. eg. Do you have automatic updating turned on for Firefox extensions? (Most wouldn't check unless Firefox is already open, but you never know). However 'dozens of times' gives me another thought; are you using Thunderbird as an email client? It could be Thunderbird checking for new emails. The simple solution to prevent seeing these notifications is to change your Smart Cleaning setting for Firefox to clean without a notification. Whatever is opening/closing Firefox would still be doing it, and CCleaner would still be cleaning it when it closes, just not nagging you when it does. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?
