How to uninstall ccleaner from windows 10

#HOW TO UNINSTALL CCLEANER FROM WINDOWS 10 INSTALL#

Major update: I managed to fix the problem by reverting to the old version - build v. Thanks for letting me know, I may look for the thread later. Maybe the uninstall failure has something to do with Smart Cleaning if it's enabled on the system, since it causes so many failures to merely update/upgrade CCleaner with it running resident in the background. I thought not too long ago someone else reported a failure of it uninstalling, can't seem to find that topic. With the way CCleaner installs which is minimal by my books by not creating a bunch of stuff all over the system in files and registry settings I'd be rather confident in the abilities of both Geek Uninstaller Free and especially Revo Uninstaller Free removing it after a reboot in case Smart Cleaning ('used to be called Monitoring') is enabled in CCleaner - even though the default built-in NSIS uninstaller is failing. While Piriform products are still compatible with good ole charished XP SP3, that might not necessarily be the same for the NSIS installer/uninstaller they use. Don't recall having such trouble with uninstalling CCleaner ever before. Should I go back to some older versions of CCleaner? Or that won't solve anything?

They do find some remaining files (I doubt they find all of them, though) and they do appear to remove them, but once I download CCleaner from its site again, install it and try to run the uninstaller, I'm getting the same NSIS error. Unfortunately, neither Geek nor Revo uninstallers managed to fix the error. You may need to restart your computer after using them.

Both do the same task by scanning for leftover files, folders, registry settings, and remove as much as they can. If that doesn't help perhaps uninstalling it by a different more robust means will work with either of the two freeware uninstallers linked below. Open Task Manager and EndTask any running CCleaner processes, then try the uninstall again.
