CCleaner v6.12.10490
CCleaner v6.12 adds a report of the drivers that were updated, including potential issues with drivers in certain categories. Users can immediately decide how to resolve it

Taking the hassle out of PC maintenance
  • Immediately after updating drivers (or after restarting your PC following an update), a report now highlights which drivers have been updated and any that may potentially cause issues – enabling users to revert some or all updates, or schedule a reminder to revert later.
Fixing bugs and other improvements
  • CCleaner now loads faster thanks to app startup optimization.
  • Fixed issue which, in some cases, resulted in the incorrect message "Not supported product".
  • Customize, Privacy, Space, Speed, and Security screens in Health Check now resize correctly according to the current window.

There seems to be an issue with that new version.
See these threads on their forum:
CCleaner does not respect my choice
Hello and goodbye...

Since the update to 6.24 (free version) "custom clean-up" is longer possible.
As soon as you click "Run CCleaner", an advertising window for the Pro version comes up. If you click that away, a second advertising screen comes up. There it says very small "No, thanks".
After you click on that, as soon as you click on "Run CCleaner" again, the first advertising window comes back, followed by the second advertising window. And so you are in a loop. Analysing is still possible, but that's no use, of course.
So I say "No, thanks", but immediately afterwards the intrusive advertising for the Pro version returns. That's disrespectful.
How do I solve this, please?

Haven't seen this myself with the portable version.
