VAC and o&o shutup10 - any issues?
I have installed different privacy software on my main and working computers and since I started using my gaming laptop for other private stuff, I want to install o&o shutup 10 here, too.
But since even CCleaner sometimes causes bugs with VAC (gamesession couldn't be verified) I am worried it might cause issues, maybe even resulting in a false VAC ban, since it messes with your windows system.
So before I install it here, does anybody have experience with problems in steam/VAC because of the use of o&o shutup10? Can it even result in one of those mythical false VAC bans some people talk about?

best regards

More crap installed doesn't equal more privacy.
O&O shutup just changes some windows settings you could change yourself (all over the place sadly) - it's fine, and doesn't do anything VAC related.
CCleaner i personally wouldn't use, but that won't cause any issues either.

Yeah thats why I prefer o&o. btw You can find the 'Last clean ccleaner Version' on the Internet, without the spyware update. Just don't update it. and its ok. Thanks for the answer.

And the ccleaner actually does cause minor issues. Like I Said, the VAC couldn't verify Game Session Bug was ccleaner related on My laptop

The thing you want to use there is a portable version, means it doesnt write stuff to registry, doesnt run any services in the background ect.
Should be no problem for CS:GO/VAC error.
CCleaner also causes no problem if using the portable version.
