That's the problem. I could not find any check box for installing Google
Chrome anywhere on the downloader interface, and I checked each page
carefully with the JAWS cursor. I wound up removing it using Revo
Uninstaller. If anyone else can find the elusive check box for installing
Chrome, please let me knoe how to locate it so that I do not get screwed
over again the next time I install a new version of CCleaner.

Gerald,
Unfortunately that's quite normal with 'modern' software installers.
It's either Ask or Chrome or a few similar bun unnecessary, but you have
the option to uncheck the install box during setup, IF of course you can
find it.
So now you can use C Cleaner to un install chrome.

I just downloaded the latest version of CCleaner, version 5.0.2, from the
JAWS Users programs page, and received a very nasty surprise. In
addition to installing CCleaner, Google Chrome was also installed, much
to my chagrin. Using the JAWS cursor to examine the installation options
in the user interface, I did not come across any check box or other means
of preventing Google Chrome from being installed along with CCleaner. I
do not remember having this problem in the past, so it looks like
Puriform is now forcing Chrome down your throat whether you want it or
not. Chrome is still not especially JAWS accessible, and removing it is
a real pain. Therefore, I suggest that a warning be added to the
CCleaner download link that downloading and installing CCleaner will also
result in the installation of Google Chrome, which is nothing but
unwanted crapware for most JAWS users.
