Herman NL Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Very strange: at installation of a new update it is trying to install Telegram. I have no idea why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Dave CCleaner Posted May 9, 2023 Admin Share Posted May 9, 2023 CCleaner for Windows? You might see an post-install or post-update offer for AV, a web browser or a VPN - but a) Telegram isn't one of these and b) anything that is offered won't try to install unless you specifically click the "yes I would like to install this" button. Possibilities: Did you already have Telegram on your computer and you ran the Software Updater (via Health Check) that updated the copy of Telegram that was already on your computer? Did you get CCleaner from somewhere other that https://www.ccleaner.com ? Other third party download sites are known to wrap CCleaner with their own adware.

But CCleaner is still trying to install Telegram... Can I avoid this? I have the profesional version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted February 25 Moderators Share Posted February 25 Wow, 9 months to reply. So long that Dave no longer even works at CCleaner. What he was getting at back then is that there is still a trace of Telegram somewhere on your machine. Something left-over from when you uninstalled Telegram. Software Updater is seeing that trace/left-over and so thinks that Telegram is still on your machine and needs to be updated. To stop that happening you will have to find and remove that Telegram left-over. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?
