    You need to uninstall the CCleaner software first. Try uninstalling it from regular uninstall option and if that does not work; clean up the CCleaner folder from your Program Files. Also look for the 'Services' that are running on your computer by right clicking on the taskbar and starting the 'task manager'. You should see a relevant ccleaner service in the processes section (I think). I don't have access to Windows at the moment, so can't provide you with the exact steps to fix this.

    Just to add a bit of info, the computer was saying 1053(i.e; the above problem) error. It was also difficult for me to uninstall programs. 😔
    Now with everything working well I can proceed with installing antivirus software etc. 😀
