Thirdzky Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 For those who experiencing slow start of the program, here's a possible to way to avoid encountering this issue. *Go to your Anti-Virus program and add CCleaner directory to exclution list. Slow start happens because your AV scans the software on startup. and this scannning process may take time because as mentioned in the previous post, It was detected as trojan or malicious file although its a false positive detection. So the best way is to add the CCleaner directory to your AV exclusion list and let us see if the problem will still occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirdzky Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 9 hours ago, Error0101 said: I tried but it did not work. Piriform has the statement about lifetime license many users purchased before they switching to monthly or annually payment. They did not respect their customer like Malwarebytes does. Lifetime license is now revoked in the case you asked me, it's my license. I purchased it some years ago, before they switching back to monthly payment Maybe I got the developers point. lifetime licenses is only available on the time a specific released version of CCleaner corresponds their agreement regarding on licenses. In short, Lifetime licenses will only work for an older version where they use that offer.So if you will use that in a newer version, then it will no longer be accepted because by time to time they change the terms of using licenses. This already happens several times in SMADAV (USB antivirus) software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete 12 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 After unblocking the .exe and adding licence-check to the hostfile , CCleaner opened immediately . After reboot , CCleaner opened in a flash and was gone , could not open the program anymore , after blocking with firewal its ok again , opened after 10 seconds ! This is the worst CCleaner I ever used ............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As stated. slow start is caused by blocking CCleaner in the firewall. Block=slow No Block=fast. Currently the only way to keep ccleaner from calling home is blocking it through the firewall or using a modded version as mentioned by funkyy. Host file is only partial block because there are no domains that I know of that can be added to the host file other than license.piriform.com. The other tracking/telemetry IP addresses don't seem to have a useable domain related to them for the host file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to avoid the application from reverting back into free version, try to disable all the 3 check boxes under the Privacy tab. I have observed this before that if those 3 checkboxes are activated, My CCleaner reverts back to free. Now im using fully functional CCleaner Pro without blocking it from the host file.

Tux 528 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I totally agree with @Thirdzky. I activated the Professional version of CCleaner by simply disabling my Internet connection and then inserting a license key generated by the keygen created by CORE. After reopening the software, I reactivated my Internet connection and it works perfectly. I don't have any slowdown when opening, my hosts file and my firewall don't prevent CCleaner from accessing to Internet, and I also disabled the 3 privacy options, since Piriform was bought out by Avast. I can also search for updates without any problem, but I have to install them manually because the software realizes that the inserted license key is invalid when a new version is released.

I'm talking about slow start vs fast start and using host file as a workaround for the full block in the firewall to avoid telemetry etc. on the free version. The free version only has one check-box for privacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crack and fixed for CCleaner is already given. Atleast the checkbox is not activated. So no worries about reverting to free because its already free portable.

No need to use a crack when the free functionality does what I need (except for the slowdown now). I can live with that though. I was just looking for a solution other that a crack. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geeez, I already said what causes the slowdown. Once more, the GUI delay occurs if you block ccleaner (uncracked version) from phoning home via the firewall (outbound) . Otherwise, the GUI will react normally. It has nothing to do with my settings. I don't have much more to say about this, so I'm done with this subject.
