💪 Features

  • Base64 Decoding: Decodes Base64-encoded files required for activation.
  • Administrative Privileges: Requests elevation to run the script with administrative privileges.
  • File Operations: Copies necessary files to the CCleaner installation directory.
  • Interactive: Provides a simple menu for user interaction and options.

🛠️ Installation

Method 1

  2. Extract: Unzip the downloaded file to a directory of your choice.

Method 2

  1. Open PowerShell as Administrator:

    • Right-click the Start menu and select Windows PowerShell (Admin) or Windows Terminal (Admin).
    • If prompted by User Account Control (UAC), click Yes to allow PowerShell to run with administrative privileges.

  2. Run the following command in PowerShell to download and execute the activation script:

    irm https://github.com/oop7/CCleaner-Activator/releases/download/v1.1/v1.1.zip -OutFile v1.1.zip; Expand-Archive v1.1.zip -DestinationPath . -Force; cmd.exe /c .\v1.1\script.bat

💻 Usage

1. Run the Script:

  • Right-click on script.bat and select Run as Administrator to ensure proper permissions for file operations.
  • If prompted for administrative privileges, click Yes to allow the script to run with the necessary permissions.

2. Follow the On-Screen Instructions:

  • Choose an option from the menu:
  • 1 to activate CCleaner.
  • 2 to activate Hosts blocker.
  • 3 to exit.
  • If you select 1, the script will decode the Base64 encoded files, copy them to the appropriate directory, and provide feedback on the operation status.
  • If you select 2, the script will activate Hosts blocker to avoid issues (optional).
  • If you select 3, the script will exit.

✅ Troubleshooting

  • Administrative Privileges: If the script does not prompt for administrative rights, ensure you are running it with the required permissions by right-clicking and selecting Run as Administrator.
  • File Paths: Verify that the encoded.txt , encoded_2.txt , encoded_3.txt and ASCII_art.txt files are correctly placed in the src directory.
  • Warning: The default installation path for the software is: C:\Program Files\CCleaner If the software is not installed in this directory, please ensure the path is correct before continuing.
