This is still not fixed!!! I just installed ccleaner 5.43.6522 today 16th of june 2018.
It auto installed Avast without consent and no opt out. There was no check box on the setup page to opt out of installation!!!!! You guys should be ashamed to do this kind of business. When will you realize that people you FORCE your product into like this are less likely going to buy your product, or do some good publicity about it
All the contrary!
I use CCleaner since the first day it came available to the public, and I supported (paid!) and trusted this program and company for being against installing bloatware and other non wanted programs, but now my trust is gone and I am going to look for other alternate company to put my trust into now.
Also, under California law, it is absolutely forbidden to install any program without the user consent. So be ready for a big lawsuit coming up your way soon!!
