asmilwho Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 On my machine CCleaner can only be run as "administrator" and then it only cleans the administrator accounts. Running CCleaner in normal user accounts causes CCleaner to crash. Which is strange, because it worked properly until I upgraded to v132 Running CCleaner in normal user account with "run as ... administrator" only cleans the administrator account. I have upgraded, downgraded, completely new installed with no improvements. System: Win XP Pro SP2 (German) with windows updated as of 15/9 Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Eldmannen Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Get the new v1.33 and try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmilwho Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share Posted September 17, 2006 Installed 1,33 and it has the same problem. I can send a crash log to ccleaner developers, if they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldmannen Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Yes, send a crash log. Maybe that would be useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushu13 Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 Running CCleaner in normal user accounts causes CCleaner to crash. It *may* crash if the user couldnt access a file or the registry, but I'm not sure. So, maybe you should log in as the Administrator and give the user accounts Administrative rights. Then log into one, clean, then go back and re-restrict the accounts. Running CCleaner in normal user account with "run as ... administrator" only cleans the administrator account. I'm no expert, but when you "Run as Administrator" wouldnt that have to clean the Administrator account? Because when you do that it runs it as if you were logged on as the Administrator, right?

asmilwho Posted September 30, 2006 Author Share Posted September 30, 2006 Hallo, thanks for the ideas. I tried changing the normal account to an administrator account but it still crashed. Well, what I exactly did was: 1. Unintstall ccleaner 2. Run RegMedic to remove problems from registry 3. Download and install latest ccleaner 1.33.382 4. Run CC in Adminitrator account, everything fine 5. Run CC in User account - application starts, but when I click the "Analyse" button the application crashes 6. Log into administrator and change User account type to "admin" 7. Log in as User, run CC, crash as above I guess my feeling is that either CC should be run from the Administrator account and clean everything on the PC, or the individual user should have responsibility for their own accounts and run CC themselves. Unfortunately, I have the worst of both worlds ... It *may* crash if the user couldnt access a file or the registry, but I'm not sure. So, maybe you should log in as the Administrator and give the user accounts Administrative rights. Then log into one, clean, then go back and re-restrict the accounts. I'm no expert, but when you "Run as Administrator" wouldnt that have to clean the Administrator account? Because when you do that it runs it as if you were logged on as the Administrator, right?
