Ccleaner

is this program worth installing on your pc or notebook? does it really increase the speed of your system because it erases unused files, cookies, etc. and opens up more HD space?

 

I have it, it does clean everything up pretty quick..i'm not to sure about a noticeable speed increase though

 

YES

you can also use it to uninstall programs... it actually gets rid of every part of the program. it also cleans up your registry and permanently deletes files in the recycle bin... and a whole bunch of other stuff.

 

it's definately a program all desktops and laptops should have. cleans out a lot of the gunk that builds up in your temporary files and even registry. will free up hdd space depeding on how often you maintain your computer.

real nice program!!!

 

Both yes, and no. It may make your system faster by deleting temporary files and doing mild registry cleanup, but on the other hand it could do nothing and just be a lump of coal there because you don't have many temp files and your registry is pretty clean.

 

simple answer, it should help now and in the future........

 

I'm new to this program and I must say, I love it. Worth downloading and using.

 

I think in the past, I tried it and it didn't work out too well. Messed up some of my settings and what not.

Now that I'm older, wiser (yeah right), and CCleaner has gone through many revisions, it is definitely a hell of a lot better. The latest update scans quicker and deletes files a lot faster compared to the one before.

Definitely one of the best free programs out there. It literally cleans your crap

 

I have ccleaner. It is an amazing program, and cleans up registry errors (lets u back them up), clean hdd space, and important of all, you can delete files with a nsa strength 7pass rewrite. Set it to that in settings. Basically that means ccleaner rewrites the data with 7 random digits or something....

 

Yes

No, but you'll feel like it does


See here and there, too.

 

Guys,

I use lastest version v2.05.555 CCleaner so far working well with my Vista 64bit.

Sometimes apps/dll, etc present running in backgrounds which files is not able to remove it.

I always go into Safe Mode to perform the tasks. (during cleans works best in SAFE-MODE most of times).

You want it. It's pretty trustworthy on registry clean up. I run it everytime I uninstall something. Great program.

 

thanks for all your reviews!!!downloading the program on both my laptop and pc.

 

I've been using CCleaner for years and it does a good job at "marking" files as inactive so that they may be overwritten by new ones, but it really does not "delete" much of anything (securely or otherwise).

If you run CCleaner's sister program Recuva, you may be surprised to see that it finds most of what CCleaner has "deleted" (even in secure overwrite mode). Recuva is also able to recover most of those files, which can come in handy if you accidentally deleted something......
