CCleaner does not remove any restore points, unless you use the restore point section of ccleaner (Under tools) and even then removes any except for the latest Restore point

Did you have Advanced\Wipe Free Space ticked?

You may have accidentally disabled system restore.
Control Panel>Backup and Restore Center>Tasks>Create a restore point or change settings>System Properties>System Protection. Under Available Disks you must have your System drive ticked.
