Latest CCleaner Version Released

[durango1]

I use this as well, but i have also noticed that every free version does less and less every time, now the free version doesnt even clean everything, they took that away as well. If i had the money i would buy it but i dont. And yes if my computer goes down i dont have to money to fix that either. I wish there was a decent alternative that would clean everything that needs cleaning other than the fly by night freeware i see that would get me by until i can buy this.

The free version still linking to Filehippo, and it's the old version. A Guy

It downloads the latest version from the link on the first page for me. :huh:

Worked ok for me. Link took me to piriform download, and was the new version.

Strange because mine gives me the notice when I open the program

I should have been clearer. Press Update within CCleaner takes you to a page that always links to Filehippo. Filehippo does not have the latest version yet.

Ah, ok.

Umm, unchecking the system monitoring doesn't stop it from monitoring, and if you delete the key it adds for monitoring, next time you start CC up, it adds the key again.

Think I'll uninstall it until they fix that forced monitoring.

Yes I hate that. They used to offer a slim built which was great, (did not offer the toolbar)
but it is no longer listed on there official ccleaner site under builds.

I clicked the update within CC, and it took me to piriforms page with a notice of the new version, not filehippo.

 

[ICIT2LOL]

I don't understand why it even needs checking for updates when the post I put in with the pic re Options > Settings and ticking the box I showed spits the update up as soon as you open CCleaner

Right now I'm moving programs from "Installed" to "Portable/Standalone" as much as possible.
I just downloaded the latest Standalone CCleaner version.
I'm not seeing the issues being discussed now with the Standalone.

Does anyone know of a reason to use the Installed version rather than than Standalone ?

I'm trying to reduce my maintenance time, but don't want to lose any benefits of the installed version.
Also, when I help people via Teamviewer I prefer to NOT install anything to try and help them.
TO ME, it seems portable/standalone versions are safer to use with remote help ...

I also unchecked all system monitorings and used to uncheck for automatic update search since a while now....Zipped Piriform Ltd version 4.17 to attached files!

I see. Newest version fixed the system monitoring, that's what it was for. Now has a new checkbox for Active monitoring plus the system monitoring checkbox. Now seems to work unchecking it.
