Similar issues to a post started 1st February but - that issue seems to have been fixed so I'm guessing this might be down to something else.
Running OSX 10.6.8
CCleaner: 1.01.106
Installed OSX 10.6.8
Downloaded CCleaner from apples app store - Initially worked fine.
Removed a bunch of Fonts (not from system-library-fonts)
CCleaner no longer loads - crashes immediately.
Does CCleaner require a font i may have removed?
Can't think of anything else that I'd done since last using CCleaner successfully.
Have uninstalled/reinstalled CCleaner - still crashes immediately.
CCleaner Won't Launch

That'd be kind of awkward if CCleaner removed one of its own dependancies.
Does OS X let you change system fonts to be universal? Windows does, but I don't have a copy of OS X to muck around with.

Sorry - think i may have confused the issue there. 
I deleted the fonts manually outside of CCleaner.
The SnowLeopard installation activated 7,000 fonts on my machine - which ground photoshop to a standstill.
So i deactivated them all (not the system fonts) and started reactivating just those that i know i use.
After that procedure though CCleaner lost interest in launching and just crashes on start-up.

If you have everything important backed up to external drive, is there a MAC restore similar to the one in Windows?
If so, you could revert back to when things were working & try again.

CCleaner needs the font 'CourierNew'.
MacOS had Courier in the System Fonts but not CourierNew - so it let me disable it.
Thanks guys for taking the time out to help - appreciate it!

Topic Pinned until such a time when this is no longer an issue with CCleaner for MAC
ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION
DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)
ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Sorry for posting on this topic four months after its creation, but I have a similar problem to the one described above. Like LazyCarrot, CCleaner crashes immediately upon launch. Unlike LazyCarrot, I can't remember anything out of the ordinary that I've done recently that might have caused it to start crashing. I did try to use the "Repair Permissions" tool, but canceled after about a minute of nothing happening, realizing that the tool would take more time than I had.
I'm running OSX Version 10.8.2, and trying to run CCleaner Version 1.03.131.
And yes, I've tried restarting my computer (twice), uninstalling/reinstalling CCleaner (twice), and running a virus scan, none of which did anything to help. I've also checked my fonts, all of which are enabled (including Courier New).
I'm at a complete loss as to how to deal with this, so any advice would be appreciated.

Is this what I have. Running 10.8.1 and using CCleaner since the 10.8.1 version came out. Can think of nothing I did then now "CCleaner Quits Unexpectededly" on launch. Uninstalled and deleted and reinstalled and same thing. Nothing I can do will get it to work?
