Hello everyone, I tried to update Ccleaner 4.01, as usual.
However, when I wanted to replace it with version 4.02, a familiar window appeared but the installation gets stuck and nothing happens.
Following advice from forums, I uninstalled the old version but I can't install the new one. I had to do a restore to get Ccleaner back.
I even disabled Avast and the firewalls but again, nothing, still the same window that freezes.
Thinking there might be an orphaned entry in the registry, I did a cleaning but, disaster... I had to do a restore to regain control.
It's a pity I don't know how to insert an image in this email, but it's the window that indicates Ccleaner is installing, with at the top a prompt to install Google Chrome. The "install" button is grayed out and that's it, the image stays like that, even after several dozen minutes.
In the task manager, the status shows that Ccleaner is being installed, but there's no reaction.
I'm on W7 64bts, 4 GB, quad-core processor 3.0GHz, 1 TB HDD.
Help!!!!!!
Thanks in advance...

Configuration: Windows 7 / Internet Explorer 10.0

Well there it is !!!!
Thanks to Kaneagle's stubbornness and insight, the problem is solved !!!
As they say, one must show humility in computing; I stupidly thought I had done what was necessary, but I was just going in circles........everyone knows that in computing, the solution is right under the user's nose without them seeing it !!!
I therefore performed a full scan with Malwarebytes, which found Trojan.Downloader and Trojan.FakeAlert, while my little programs hadn’t found anything, even in safe mode !!!
I then carried out a complete cleanup following the log's protocol.
I restarted the machine and then successfully installed version 4.03 of CCleaner.
Long live help forums.........of course, and of course, CCM !!!
A big thank you to you Kaneagle !!
Looking forward to crossing paths on this website that I know is appreciated by all internet users.
