Weird Word Document Issue

[Product FRED]

CCleaner has a setting in the options, "Run CCleaner when computer starts". Make sure it's unchecked. If that doesn't work, make sure it's not in the Startup folder in the Start menu.

I guess if it not there, than it is not there. I wonder though why it would run automatically at startup. You can double check in CCleaner itself (see picture).

Alright, I did what Fred told me and the option "Run CCleaner when computer starts" is already unchecked so that's why it's not in the startup menu I suppose.

Thank you.

I looked and the option "Run CCleaner when computer starts" is already unchecked. I will keep it that way.

Thank you.

Uninstall it and then reinstall it.

What do you mean? Is there something wrong?

Uninstall it and then reinstall it.

Good idea. They have a new version anyhow. Get it from filehippo.com (best download site).

It seems so. It's not a big deal. Uninstalling it will remove anything telling it to startup, and reinstalling should fix the problem. Like whs said, there's a newer version out anyways, so it's a win-win situation.

Well I just installed it three days ago. But no matter. I uninstalled it and will restart now. brb

 

[TheTalker]

Okay, I'm installing version 2.29.1111 from Filehippo right now.

Edit: Installed the new version. I unchecked the Recent Documents and Office 2007. Just so you know the option to "Start CCleaner when computer starts" is still unchecked. I can check it though. But I won't.

And it's not in the msconfig startup menu either.

Is this okay?

Edit #2: Also, I suppose it's not starting up when I start my computer because I'm not getting any prompting message asking me for permission to start the program. So I suppose that means it's not starting until I click on it myself.

Still wondering why it's not in that startup menu though. Maybe it will there if I enabled it to start up.

That sounds right. Test it by logging out then back in. Does it still start on it's own?

It wasn't starting on it's own before. At least not that know of. When I click on it myself then I get a message asking for permission to start and I must click "Yes". This does not come up when I start my computer.

Thus meaning it does not start on it's own correct?

Open Ccleaner and click on Options. If Settings is not displayed, click on settings. If the first box, Run Ccleaner when computer starts is checked, uncheck it.

Edit: I see others typed faster than I and you have already checked this.

Yup. Problem solved

Yes, you are correct.

Thank you so much everyone!

I guess that even though the document reverting back to an older version is weird it's still CCleaner's fault. So I'm keeping the two options "Recent Documents" and "Office 2007" unchecked.

I will also keep the "Run CCleaner when computer starts" unchecked.

Thank you so much everyone for your help, assistance and, most importantly, your time! I wish there was a thank button.

 

[Product FRED]

There is. It's the little scale in the top right of each post. And no problem, that's why we're here

 

[TheTalker]

Thanks again Fred. Everyone who posted got a rep thanks from me.

One last question. How do I mark this thread as solved? Or is that not my job? (oops, guess that's two questions. )

 

[whs]

Any time. This is fun.
If you click the red triangle and post as solved, the mods will take care of that.

 

[TheTalker]

Okay. Sent!

Thanks once again everyone. This site has given me some great information. (Got my links folder back too. Heh heh heh.)
