Piriform doesn't have 3000 employees.

Turning off an AV is not the same as uninstalling it. The only way to truely test is to uninstall Avast and try the full installer again. As Avast owns CCleaner some might think it strange that a block could happen ...I don't.

Holy Hazelnuts ???? Glad to hear you are up and running again !

Try seeing if the Slim Build from here will run. https://www.ccleaner.com/ccleaner/builds

Because your F drive doesn't have an operating system on it, I'm afraid you cannot clean it like you clean your C drive. On your C drive there is a structure which CCleaner can see C\Windows C\Program files C\Temp etc., etc., These don't exist on your F drive do they? It's just files and folders which you put on there yourself?

Does CCleaner run if you boot into Windows Safe Mode?

Wonder who the 3 US anti-virus companies are? No doubt someone will leak the names. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2019/05/hackers-breached-3-us-antivirus-companies-researchers-reveal/

trium I have moved on from Opera. I didn't like the autoupdater (you cannot turn it off) and also the built-in VPN caused issues for me. I have used Vivaldi for a few months now which works well for me.

Just in case there are any users of this out there. https://support.symantec.com/en_US/K9WebProtection.html

Pouvez-vous utiliser Google Translate pour poster en anglais s'il vous plaît.

Do you know why safe mode isn't working? Is it because of the update? Did it always work before the update ?

If you are running Windows 7 can you look in Control Panel .....Programs and Features and see how much is listed there for that program.

Because of an expired certificate issue all Firefox extensions are disabled at the moment. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1548973

It's server issues I believe.

I have reported this to admin and as far as I know it is being looked into.
