Hello,

Starting a few months ago, went you install Utility/CCPortable and run it for the first time, it asks/forces you to upgrade it. When you do, you end up with a program installed in "C:\Program Files\Piriform\CCleaner 7\CCleaner.exe" ...

THIS IS NOT A PORTABLE APP. Please remove it from the Platform.

[Fixed] CPU-Z Installation Issue via PortableApps Internal Downloader

Submitted by tortadefrango97 on January 30, 2026 - 9:09am

Hello,

The CPU-Z application is not downloading and installing correctly through PortableApps.

When I try to perform the installation via the internal downloader feature, the process fails or does not complete as expected. However, manual installation directly from the official website works fine. https://imgur.com/a/HEorS4e

All other applications I tested using the internal downloader worked without issues, only CPU-Z is presenting this problem.

Could you please check what is causing this issue?
