So can I clean the registry without the software/plugins losing authorization/registration and stuff like that?
I'm not worried about the safe issues (privacy) in CCleaner I'm gonna uninstall it after doing this clean. I'm pretty sure I have a lot of garbage in the registry would have been nice to clean it up

 

Firstly, you can and should make a registry backup with CC before cleaning it.
Secondly, how should CC detect if a software or its registry entries is legit or not?
Since I don't know of any reason how this should be possible, I see no prob in using it.

never use registry cleaners

 

CC Cleaner analize your registry and presents you a list of the items to delete, just read the list and decide yourself.

 

@Daskeladden
Hope you back-up your pc before you start
you can realy mess things up if anything goes wrong
and all you will save is a few mb at most.
All i would clean is the MUI cache just to be safe.

P.S
One thing to do is
Defrag your Registry is safe ,i have my own program i use
but you can try this one is free.

I use Ccleaner regularly and I've never had any issue while I always let Ccleaner delete the useless files he finds.

 

it deleted my halion 6 license so yeah dont fuck with that shit man

 

dont play with software

 

I always used that feature and never had an issue with plugins or windows.

 

I use CCleaner all the time. Great!

 

Okay, that is enough for me. I will stay away. Don't think I gonna get a faster Windows anyways.

 

Isn't the latest CCleaner version full of Spyware? Anyway there is a good open-source alternatiive: https://www.bleachbit.org/

 

Makes no sense with SSDs.

 

I have Halion 6 and never had a single problem with CCleaner

 

Make a backup just in case, use CCleaner and it's unlikely you'll have any problem. as unlikely as with legit applications. I use Glary Utilities set to "deep scan" and the only issue I've had so far is some lost valid shortcut.
With CCleaner and similar as important as the registry is to delete temporary files. They can slow down your PC and it's the preferred location for malware to spread.

The CCleaner malware was some time ago and it was solved. Download from trustworthy location and it's good.
