CCleaner is a popular service program.
Three main areas of CCleaner’s work can be identified: system scanning, error correction and cleaning, as well as protecting user privacy. Scanning and analysis takes place by checking the system and applications, searching for software errors and their causes. During cleaning, the program deletes unused and temporary files, providing faster Windows operation and freeing up space on hard drives. Also, as a result, traces of the user’s online activity are destroyed, for example, the history of his navigation on the Internet.
The program generates a list of files that require deletion and offers it to the user. The list may include files with errors, cookies, temporary objects or applications that neither the user nor the system uses. Their presence already loads the device system and affects the speed of operations, because many such programs do not stop their activity even when it seems that they are turned off. CCleaner quickly identifies what complicates the computer and suggests ways to solve these problems.
CCleaner was made for safe use. It has many levels of security checks, in order to be sure that nothing necessary and useful will be deleted. A backup system is provided for very suspicious and cautious users.
The popularity of the program is based on the support of many popular and widespread browsers: Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, K-Meleon, Rockmelt, Flock, Google Chrome Canary, Chromium, SeaMonkey, Chrome Plus, SRWare Iron, Pale Moon, Phoenix, Netscape Navigator, Avant.
CCleaner also analyzes the work of third-party applications, such as Windows Media Player, eMule, Microsoft Office, Google Toolbar, Nero, Adobe Acrobat, WinZip, WinRAR, WinAce, etc.
If the basic features of the program will be enough for an ordinary user, then the developers have prepared advanced functions for professionals and more advanced users.
