What are CCleaner.exe Error Messages?


CCleaner.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are CCleaner errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when CCleaner.exe is attempted to be loaded either when CCleaner is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using CCleaner.

In most cases, CCleaner.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these CCleaner.exe error messages mean that CCleaner was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, CCleaner will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common CCleaner.exe errors include:

  • CCleaner.exe - Bad Image.
  • CCleaner.exe Application Error.
  • CCleaner.exe could not be found.
  • CCleaner.exe could not be installed.
  • CCleaner.exe could not be launched. Class not registered.
  • CCleaner.exe could not be started.
  • CCleaner.exe failed to initialize properly.
  • CCleaner.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
  • CCleaner.exe is not a valid Win32 application.
  • CCleaner.exe is not running.
  • Cannot find CCleaner.exe.
  • Error starting program: CCleaner.exe.
  • Faulting Application Path: CCleaner.exe.
  • The file CCleaner.exe is missing or corrupt.
  • Windows failed to start - CCleaner.exe.
System Error


The program can’t start because CCleaner.exe is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Finding the source of the CCleaner.exe error is key to properly resolving these errors. Although most of these EXE errors affecting CCleaner.exe will happen during startup, occasionally you will encounter a runtime error while using CCleaner. This can occur due to poor programming on behalf of Piriform Ltd, conflicts with other software or 3rd-party plug-ins, or caused by damaged and outdated hardware. Also, these types of CCleaner.exe errors can occur if it has been accidentally moved, deleted, or corrupted by a malware infection. Thus, it's critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying CCleaner.exe to your appropriate Windows system directory. Piriform typically does not release CCleaner EXE files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing CCleaner.exe and all other EXE files for CCleaner. An incorrectly installed EXE file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
