C Cleaner Active Monitoring Free version

[johnoo]

Have just noticed within the hidden icons that there is one for CCleaner active monitoring & it is "Active"

Looking at the detail within CCleaner

"Enable Systems Monitoring" is checked

"Enable Browser Monitoring" is not checked.

Questions:-

1 Is this a new addition to CCleaner?

2 What does it do?

3 Are these the preferred settings?

Active Monitoring allows CCleaner Free to monitor your installation in the background, for any updates or new releases, so you don't have to worry about keeping up-to-date.
We recommend you keep this enabled, but if you'd prefer CCleaner didn't monitor your system, you can turn off Active Monitoring by following these steps:

1. Open CCleaner, then click Options > Monitoring
2. Disable System Monitoring by unchecking Enable System Monitoring
3. Disable Active Monitoring by unchecking Enable Active Monitoring.
4. Click Yes when the confirmation box appears

CCleaner will no longer appear in your system tray after closing.

Thanks, had another look at the details & "Enable System Monitoring" is checked on as is "Enable Active Monitoring".

But "Enable Browser Monitoring" is not checked & I can't get it to "Check", is this not a function within the free version?

This can only be enabled with the Pro (paid for) version

Thanks, will leave settings as they are.
