Hello,

How can y switch off the "Run CCleaner when the computer starts" option in the Settings pannel ?

The application is installed on about 100 PC. Could y switch off this option by command line or *.ini parameter ?

Thank you in advance.

Charles

If you un✓ Options\Settings\☐Run CCleaner when the computer starts, it doesn't switch off?

He does. But I'd like to put the option automatically, due the number of PC's.

edit the registry:

HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run/

and delete the key that says ccleaner

that's exactly what the check box in the options/settings does, but with registry, you can make a .reg file and apply it to all computers.

see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310516 for syntax

If you're not comfortable editing the Windows registry:
1. Start CCleaner.
2. Click: Options -> Settings
3. Untick the box: Run CCleaner when the computer starts
Done!
Complexity of incoherent design.
