Rated 4 out of 5 stars

I've had a version of CCleaner on every computer I've owned since the 2000's. The only reason I give it a 4-star instead of a 5 is because of the "improvements" they keep making to the user interface.... See more

Seems to keep my computer healthy. It is sometimes confusing to receive offers on email, when I already have installed CCleaner.

When using Win 10

When using Win 10, updating certain software gives error code: 4, and when I use the support tool, I don’t understand how it’s helpful?

CCleaner version 7 is absolute rubbish…

CCleaner version 7 is absolute rubbish to use as far as the UI and logical functionality is concerned.

It is a huge come-down from the previous version 6 which worked well and had a very logical and useable interface.

No doubt version 7 internally works well also, however there are so many bad aspects of the UI that it makes it functionally unusable.
It might be Ok for someone who just wants to hit one button and trust an app to go through their machine and delete files and registry entries while being totally oblivious to the possible hard that can do.
However for a person who has a modicum of understanding knows this is a security and data risk.

Stay with version 6 if you can.
