Apart from the taskbar acting up, as it did during the testing period, there are some applications that just won’t work with the operating system, or simply work sporadically. There’s no apparent pattern here, just some random glitches and errors that make our lives a bit more difficult than necessary.

WinRAR and CCleaner reportedly blocked by Windows 11

Many Windows 11 users are actually sharing some pretty disconcerting gossip with the community. Some of the important apps that we use on a daily basis refuse to function with this OS. We’re surely past the What is WinRAR? questions, as we are sure that everyone definitely knows about this powerful compression, archiving, and archive managing software tool. Using this app, users can compress or archive multiple electronic files into single and significantly smaller size folders. However, more and more reports are coming in that the software and Windows 11 are not on such good terms at the moment. We know that there are a lot of us that constantly rely on WinRAR to make it possible to compress and send files, so this is a real headache. Windows Explorer is also not responding to open the iso file. The only message users receive is You are trying to install an app that is not verified by Microsoft. Not a lot to go on, considering we never encountered this problem. But the problems don’t end here, unfortunately. There are other applications going through the same ordeal, so make sure you know what you are dealing with. CCleaner, formerly known as Crap Cleaner, is a utility used to clean potentially unwanted files and invalid Windows Registry entries from a computer, and it is one of the longest-established system cleaners, first launched in 2004. We all know that, right? It was originally developed only for Windows, but in 2012, a macOS version was released. Also, an Android version was released in 2014. But If you are now running Windows 11 and would like to use this tool, you better prepare to be surprised. You might not be able to do that at all, unfortunately. As we mentioned above. there doesn’t seem to be any pattern here, just some random errors that prevent users from using certain applications. Pretty strange, judging from reports, as people said that apps were working fine one day, only to discover that they were completely useless the next. We’ll keep an eye out for any official Microsoft release regarding this matter and keep you informed. Have you been struggling with such issues as well? Let us know in the comments section below.
