I guess it is good to try because yes, although I uncheck 'Smart Cleaning' it seems to recheck itself I will uninstall and reinstall CCleaner but do note however, that it is actually a fresh install I am using; not only was CC just installed but it was installed right after a fresh install of Windows 10 as well--both less than 2 weeks

The main check box is still unticked and under Startup> Windows it was and is disabled (As to deleting it, should I, really)? However, under Smart Cleaning the checkbox was checked again--it wasn't me. I'll see if it happens again and update you guys on it should it check itself again.

I spoke too fast. It's there again, and on the following 2 reboots after that as well. Now what?

Thanks to all. APMichael, that did the trick :-)

Although I have the box unchecked so as it does not run when I bott my PC it still does so. BTW fresh install of Windows (Hence latest version of Windows home and latest version of CC) How do I make it stop running? Thanks

The question to ask, I would assume, if recovery is needed is: What are the files (file names) that are deleted for Firefox/Chrome/IE in order to get back -a-lost history -b-lost tabs etc. Once this is known then recovery software can be used to try to recover those exact files. Does anyone know? The only one I know of is "index.dat' file which alone can do some help but will not recover the history
