CCleaner forces Google Chrome installation?

[John Doe]

I don't know how I got this installation file, but looks like
CCleaner 3.19 forces the installation of Google Chrome. Of course you
can cancel, but they give you no option to avoid the Google Chrome
installation. They don't even say it's going to be installed, they
just say it's a good thing...

Not true. You can easily opt out during installation if you pay
attention and don't just hit random keys while staring into space.

And they're up to version 3.27 now.

 

[John Doe]

In fact, the installation of CCleaner 3.19 is exactly as I said.
In fact, there are no options to remove the Google Chrome
installation part that follows without warning immediately after
the options part. And the Google Chrome installation part part
doesn't even really say that it's going to install Google Chrome,
it's just a graphic talking about how great Google Chrome is. And
then if you try to cancel at that point, it will say that it's
exiting the CCleaner installation (whether it does or not). And it
definitely tries to install Google Chrome if you don't cancel.

Nildo the Troll is so incredibly full of it...

I have installed CCleaner many times and have always seen and acted on the
option not to install Chrome. I can't understand how you would miss it.

That's my finding, too. I was thinking of something else (Irfanview, as
I recall) that had the easily-avoidable Chrome offer during
installation. CCleaner has no foistware of any kind included.

Its "improved Chrome integration" has to do with CCleaner being able to
clear Chrome's cache and cookies.

I've had CCleaner installed for years, updating it often. I don't have,
and have never had Google Chrome on this computer, which in itself
refutes the OP's claim.

But of course, any version other than 3.19 could be different. And
in fact, prior versions installed differently here. And the reason
I have version 3.19 is obviously because I haven't taken the time

Perhaps you mean *your* version.

Where did you get your alleged CCleaner 3.19? Maybe you downloaded a
bogus CCleaner from somewhere.

According to FileHippo, the md5 for v3.19 was
CFBAA5DC7F01D2D2D530BF9C9DDFBB16

Check yours.

 

[John Doe]

As usual, some well known website. And I often download from
multiple websites and compare the files.

See for yourself.

According to FileHippo, the md5 for v3.19 was
CFBAA5DC7F01D2D2D530BF9C9DDFBB16

The Codes Match!

Being an expert user, I would've noticed if it were malware (they
always try to phone home). The only way I'm able to get it to
install CCleaner 3.19 without Google Chrome is to accept the
Google Chrome installation and prevent that part of the
installation from connecting to the Internet.
