Obtaining latest version compatible with Windows 2000?


Recommended Posts

Apparently, CCleaner 4.x is no longer compatible with Windows 2000. (I don't know that it WON'T work, just that the installer prevents it from installing.) Version 3.28.1913 is the latest pre-4.x version listed in the release notes, so I'd like to download it and install it on my Windows 2000 virtual machine. But I cannot find a link to any archived older versions anywhere on the Piriform website.

 

If Piriform has chosen to end support for earlier versions of Windows, that's their right. It's a free program, after all. But it would be a decent gesture to keep available the latest versions that WILL work on older OSes.

 

I may not be able to use the latest and greatest version, but I should at least be able to obtain the latest version that will work for me.

Older versions are available from Filehippo.

The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-)

Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

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.
