That makes perfect sense to have a safe, limited cleaner. As I mentioned, one of the areas that ARO evaluates (and in my case, the majority of the errors were found) was in the deep scan where 830 errors pertained to invalid/orphaned reference/pathways. There were 151 errors in software where pgms in the Control Panel were no longer installed. Since there is a detailed, line by line listing of all the errors detected, one can choose which ones to correct or ignore.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't say that ARO was better, simply that it found 1100 more errors in the registry. My question remains: Will future upgrades to CCleaner include the areas that ARO addresses?

I very much enjoy the ease of use of CCleaner and use it at least daily. However, after trying a trial version of Advanced Registry Optimizer 2010, that pgm finds an additional 1100 errors in the registry. Those are in the deep scan, software, current user and Tweak categories. Are there plans to include the above areas in future upgrades? Sure hope so.
