With the last two versions of CCleaner I am prompted for an Administrator password when I log in. I am running as a limited user. It used to only prompt when I ran a cleanup. Also, it does not empty my recycle bin. Is there any way to fix this?

I figured some things out that are actually quite obvious. When CCleaner prompts for a password it asks for an Administrator password so that is what I provided. If I provide the password for my currently logged on account it will then delete the items in my recycle bin. It still prompts for a password at login but I guess I can live with that.

Some others on the forum have been recommending right clicking the CCleaner shortcut, and then selecting to run it as Administrator.
Complexity of incoherent design.

God I'm so glad I stuck with XP Pro.
