I have read the suggestions for this and understand that it has been suggested before and Logic for why this isn't a good thing to add to ccleaner aside,
Does anyone have a way of actually adding this to cleaner ? through winapp2.ini or something ? I do periodically check my event logs however I find it annoying to have to clear them manually one log at a time (system, application, security, office, powershell) when I run ccleaner I wish to clear everything with as few mouse clicks as possible or at least have the option to do so.

I would not like to see this in ccleaner especially as an item that is ticked by default.
The logs are just so useful for troubleshooting.
However the devs read all posts.

I agree with Hazelnut's statements
ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION
DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)
ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

hazelnut's post looks like a an exact copy of the comments I have already seen.
and to be fair.
I agree with both of you, since most people are not the most computer savvy having such a thing as a default option or even a checkable option in the main release would be problematic.
Being decently computer savvy I am looking to add the option of clearing the event viewer for my own personal use. As usually I like to read the logs, then clear them and watch for new activity if I suspect a problem.
also there is a lot of annoying and useless information in the event viewer such as office logs etc... so if someone knows how to add this to ccleaner it would be helpful.

I think you should be able to clear the logs with winapp2.ini if you stop the service, but you may be better off with a batch file.
