cCleaner portable: 5.57.7182 (x64)
Easy Clean was not on dashboard when I originally installed
Easy Clean auto-magically appeared on the dashboard today - WTF!
Easy Clean will make certain that new users don't use cCleaner. The default clean, now called Custom Clean, is fine, even for novices. Calling standard cleaner custom will frighten novices. Don't rename Cleaner option, do away with Easy Clean option.
If you must include a really dumb and useless option, allow users to choose. BTW, I also do not like the Cleaning results level of detail options - the summary is just as useless as Easy Clean.
I have all updates turned off, and yet Easy Clean came outta nowhere.
