Well, the discussion has been going on for over a year now and things may have changed more than once. I have not had the same issue when i use my key to unlock the latest trial downloads, my key purchased many years ago successfully unlocks all pro features, admittedly i get the nag box, but is otherwise fully functional? If I don't, I wont be happy as that is the key reason I use the product. I'll have to see whether I still get the automatic prompts to clean my PC in the next couple of days. I can't see anything has changed in the settings when I opened CCleaner a few minutes ago to check the version, whereas when I was automatically updated to a newer version last time certain key functions were disabled hence why I got involved in this discussion in the first place. I did run it manually afterwards though so I'm wondering whether that triggered something. I last got the prompt to clean the PC just a couple of days ago but had to ignore it because I was in the middle of running some app or other. I have automatic updates turned off, CCleaner and Piriform have been blocked from incoming connections in Windows Firewall since last year. However, I just checked my own copy which was version installed last year and has been working OK with smart cleaning prompting me to run the cleaning function every few days to save x amount of wasted space until just a couple of days ago and find it has mysteriously updated itself to the latest version despite ignoring getting several spurious messages about the licence expiring over the Christmas/New Year period. Anything newer than that will disable certain Professional features such as automatic cleaning". As I have posted previously, in my experience you're OK up to version which was published on June 6th last year but be sure to turn off automatic updates as soon as it's installed. You can install your original installation file if you still have it and register that, or you can go to and download a newer version that should still accept your original serial number. The latest versions are subscription type. "Be aware you cannot download and install the latest version from the CCleaner website and register it as the Professional version using your original serial number though.
