CCleaner vs. Other Disk Cleaners
Battle of the Disk Cleaners

Here are some reasons why CCleaner is the best choice...

Freeware

CCleaner is 100% Free! No Spyware, No Adware, No Viruses. Certified by Softpedia

Check out the prices of other Disk Cleaners. Prices range from $4.99-$49.99.

CCleaner cleans much more

Most Disk Cleaners (Shareware) will just scan your C: drive for certain file extensions (common file types, temp., logs, memory dumps, and backup files).

CCleaner cleans them plus applications, 150+ applications...

CCleaner is careful about not removing important files. It cleans useless junk, not files that could "possibly" effect Windows or other applications.

CCleaner's cleaning speed is just remarkable compared to other Disk Cleaners.

The ability to add new/more programs to CCleaner with no programming knowledge, just basic Windows knowledge will do.

Size

CCleaner is barely over 1 MegaByte... Most range from 1.5MB-4MB

Look

Doesn't have any ads, splash screen, or fancy graphics that aren't nesscary for the program.

Safety

CCleaner was designed from the ground to be safe and secure to use. It has multiple levels of checks in place to ensure that it cannot delete any useful information or documents you may still need. We also certify that it contains no Spyware or Adware.

Portability

CCleaner can run from a USB thumbdrive and be installed/run on a computer without a complicated setup process.

High Security

For the super cautious users we also offer secure file erasing. By overwriting the files before deleting them, making it impossible to recover the data.

Multiple Languages

Thanks to the translators, CCleaner is available in 35 different languages.

Registry

CCleaner even has a built-in Registry Cleaner. It's not the best (not CCleaner's main function), but it will find invaild registry entries that most Registry Cleaners will not. Unlike the Disk Cleaners with a Registry Cleaner, CCleaner does really fast scanning for Registry Issues. The reason is CCleaner doesn't want to effect Windows performance or effect any applications. It's better to be safe than sorry!

Updated

CCleaner is updated regularly with new features, fixes, new applications, and so on.

With winapp2.ini, you can update CCleaner with new applications almost daily!

Support

Support is outstanding for CCleaner. There are a bunch of very smart and talented people in the Forums, if they can't fix your CCleaner (or anything else for that matter) problems, the developer of the program will try to help you out.
