I'd suggest MalwareBytes Free as a second malware scanner, I run a scan with it weekly, or even use it as a second AV. It wouldn't do any harm to check that your AV is up to date and run a scan, maybe even get another option to do a second scan. It was a PITA yesterday, and is still playing up today. If you have then you could delete it, that should revert CCleaner to default settings so you would have to set any customisation back up again.Īs for the downloading that may simply be to do with the fact that it's Black Friday weekend and the internet is overloaded with shoppers. Just one more thing that I can think of, but uninstalling CCleaner should have cleared it anyway.ĭo you have your CCleaner settings saved to a. If you weren't using CCleaner you wouldn't even have noticed that something Opera related was still lingering.

It may need a Windows update to finally get rid of all traces.Īs you say things like this are more of an annoyance than a problem, but do point up that most uninstalls leave traces behind. Possibly there is still something Opera related that is not using the word Opera? This issue is doing me no harm I don't intend to use Opera and therefore it's merely an annoyance related to cluttering, and of mainly academic interest - rather fascinating actually. Kept reporting that the download had failed, but did not give a reason. Strangely, the download manager itself I could get easily enough trim their server, but it refused then to download the actual program module!.
I hoped that would clear any buried remnants lurking somewhere.

Then, as a last resort, I downloaded the download handler for the latest version of Opera, in order to get the program, install it and then remove it. I rechecked and verified via Revo that no further flotsam and jetsam using the name 'Opera' was present on my system, yet CC was able to find something, obviously. Neither of these actions 'fixed' the problem of it finding evidence of a ghost Opera somewhere in my system files. Following the further advice I received from you, I did two sequential uninstall/installs of CCleaner - first with the slim version and second with the normal installer. This has been an intriguing experiment with a bizarre consequence.

The Pro version (or Pro trial) can even clear up leftovers from things that were uninstalled before you got Revo using a special mode, again read up about it before trying. Revo will use Operas own uninstaller and then search for leftovers, if you tell it to, again be careful and use with care (you don't want to remove the wrong thing). If you get the Free version of Revo then the easiest way is probably to reinstall Opera and then uninstall it again using Revo. Revo uninstaller is good at finding those leftovers and removing them, use with care and read up about using it before trying.
(or you could reinstall Windows, but that's a bit drastic for a minor annoyance).

If you are on Windows 10 you could ignore it until the next Windows Feature Update which should (may) remove the ghost. If you are confident using the Registry Editor then you could search it for anything 'Opera' - Usual warning: Don't use the Registry Editor if you are not confident in doing so, you could mess or even brick your machine if you are not sure what you are doing in there. if you had/havea certain file type set to open in Opera then there will be a reg entry for that.
It's probably a registry key, possibly a file association somewhere - ie. (Some do it deliberately, so that if for instance you try to install more than one free trial they will know you've already had one). Many apps when uninstalled will leave traces behind. There will be a leftover from the Opera uninstall still lingering somewhere on your computer which CCleaner is still finding.
