I have the latest version of CCleaner (downloaded today). When I run CCleaner and clean up the Windows and Applications something weird happens. CCleaner changes the "zoom" on Microsoft Word to 175%. I first noticed it in my email since I use Word to compose emails. I've done this numerous times and tested it every which way and it always sets the "zoom" to 175% instead of the default 100%.
Any ideas?

You have to disable the cleaning of Microsoft Office in order for your settings to be kept intact in it, otherwise everytime your run CCleaner's Cleaner functionality it will remove the settings.

To disable the cleaning of MS Office:
1. Run CCleaner.
2. On the big Cleaner button click the Applications tab.
3. Look under the Applications list and untick Microsoft Office.
4. Re-configure Word to your liking.
Complexity of incoherent design.

That did the trick! I wonder why it chooses to set it to 175% when the default is 100%.
