CCleaner Licensing Question


d2b

Recommended Posts

This information is not readily available, if at all, when considering a purchase of CCleaner Pro. So I will ask these questions. First some background: I have 4 engineering workstations in my personal home office and one HP business-grade notebook for portability. I am the only user of all of these. Each is configured for a different specialized use.

 

I could not find any information on what I would actually get if I bought CCleaner Pro. Is it only for 1 computer or one user? Is it an outright purchase or a 1-year limited subscription.

 

I am not about to pay ~$125 a  year for a program that I might choose to use once every few months on one or maybe all of these machines. I'd much rather purchase a single installation that I can put on a thumb drive and use at will to occasionally fine-tune performance.

 

After all, beyond that role, it doesn't give me any additional functionality. It would be nice to have, but considering the short lifetime for state-of-the art computers (not much more than 3 year nowadays), I need to know what I'm buying when I add optional software like this.

 

So, what are my options?

 

Thanks...

in case you couldn't find it, there is this; https://piriform.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/204044434-How-long-is-my-license-valid-for-

in short, Pro gives you 1 license for one PC, priority support lasts for 1 year but the product still stays on the Pro level.

so from a cleaning perspective, it's a one-time payment (confusing I know).

Backup now & backup often.
