For a standalone application, do I need all 34 DLLs to run the CCleaner app in English from my flash drive?
Are they really language DLL files?

A Standalone with 40 files in the zip is hardly a standalone.
...And I don't see any documentation to select which DLL is required, if it's only one.

You don't need any of the lang-****.dlls for English, English is integrated into CCleaner.
The dlls are labeled to conform to Microsoft's Locale ID (LCID)

Leaving a very portable 7 files:
CCleaner.exe = The main app (duh)
winapp.ini = Main application cleaning list
unicows.dll = Provides unicode support
portable.dat = Forces CCleaner to write to an ini
License.txt & History.txt = CCleaner info
WinApp2.ini = More application support, not included in the zip

That should clear up any problems. B)

Thanks very much for clearing up the confusion on my part. That will take care of my concern.
Maybe we should post it in a sticky somewhere for others, if it's not in an available document.
