I have friends who use CCleaner. Many of them are computer novices and often mess up doing the update to their current version of CCleaner. The latest mistake is updating their current english version of CCleaner with a non english update.

Are there plans to change CCleaner so it updates itself with no or minimum user interaction ?

Auto updating has been suggested countless times before, however there's still no functionality for it to update itself, there's only notifications as of yet. If it ever gets auto updating nobody knows.

there's really not a non-english/english version of ccleaner, if they have it set to a different lang have them press the last button on the grey bar (looks like a piece of paper with check marks) and then the first button of that list. The first drop down on that page will allow lang selection

I've registered to point this question also, almost every time I start the program I'm asked to download another setup package (exe).

Along with the coolness with the program itself and I praise and thank the developers for it, this doesn't seem an optimal choice imho, maybe just small separate script/packages/plugins may be downloaded by the main executable not a whole installer?

What happens if you untick 'check for updates' in ccleaner >options >settings

Do you still get asked then?

It's to do with bandwidth so im told. I don't quite understand the big fuss over having to update with an installer. From download to install it takes less then a minute.
