Ccleaner Download Offline

I have ccleaner professional and every time I run healthcheck it says, "it looks like you're offline." Because of this the "speed" and the "security" functions say unavailable when offline. Internet access is definitely available. How do I correct this?


It's not that you are offline, but rather that the server could not be contacted (or timed out).

They have promised to change the message wording.

But if the server can't be reached, for whatever reason, then it's not something that can be changed in CCleaner itself because it's an internet connection problem.

I'm not sure if this is still an issue for anybody but I was having the same problem for whatever the reasons that were mentioned. So I figured I'd run it with admin compatibility mode checked and suddenly when ccleaner opened up, I was no longer offline. This may help or just be a waste, any who, cheers!


Any ideas here? I tried disabling my AV and Firewall, and added healthcheck.ccleaner.com as specifically allowed on my Router firewall. It seems like it is being blocked, so it would be really helpful to know exactly what endpoints ccleaner is trying to reach out to.


1st, Disable "Advanced Security" in my Eero router firewall. This is not my favorite, as I don't like disabling security to make a product work. Noted the domain names/IP addresses that ccleaner64 communicates with, but they seem to be connecting to a range, or at lease a few different remote endpoints. Having the list of domains to whitelist, this would be better.


Since buying the Pro license, CCleaner Software Updater says that I am offline whenever I run it, even though I am online. Machine is Windows 11, all other functions appear to work properly although the registry cleaner often confirms that a fix has been made, running it again after a restart shows the same issues. What am I missing?


Interesting points. I've used Eraser for years. Wiping is all that it does and it does it very well. I can't comment on the accuracy of the OP's findings, but if any product offers 'secure deletion' as ccleaner does, then it should do what it claims to do.


So when something like ccleaner offers a 35-pass Gutmann (or as Augeas said t'other day "My post count would be halved if Gutmann had kept his mouth shut.") then I would certainly not expect to be able to retrieve the file content!


If the OP is correct, why not get ccleaner to wipe 3 times properly, rather than 35 times 'not very well'? Probably wouldn't help the sales pitch ... the causual user would say "huh, this only does a 3 pass erase"






I would like to see the devs' comments too. I would expect a 3-pass (or logically, a one-pass, but I'm the nervy type) to leave file content unrecoverable by any software. Also interesting that the other product does (apparently) erase file names on a free-space wipe - wonder why ccleaner (apparently) doesn't?


Also note I'm not knocking ccleaner here either ... in this context I'm more interested in ad hoc file wiping; not something done as part of a wider-scoped and periodic 'cclean' for which I will still use a ccleaner 3-pass.


I expect any tool, ccleaner included, that claims to be able to wipe your system volume, can do so effectively and properly. There can't be worse press for a piece of software than 'a feature' that trashes your OS partition!


It's not ccleaner at fault here, it's caused by blindly cleaning the registry despite ccleaner giving multiple chances (per entry to be removed) for the user to look at the entry and make an educated decision on if it should be removed.


Please read my signature, which applies whether you continue to use ccleaner or move to another registry cleaning solution. That said, I've never found a more gentle (less likely to cause issues via removal of necessary keys) registry cleaner than ccleaner; this is why so many people have experiences like where they "never before had problems" with registry cleaning.
