different question my first time on. Ihave the free version , fixing to d/load the ccleaner for home edition. Will this remove files that i need and mess up my computer.
If this is your first version of CCleaner, then as long as you stick to the default settings and leave the "Registry" section alone, then you shouldn't have any problems.
One thing it will remove is cookies which may contain log in information for any web sites you have registered with.

I have been using CCleaner for quite a while and have been very satisfied with it. I have used Firefox for many years and have no intention of changing to another browser. I do not like Piriform adding Chrome (or anything else) to the downloads. This is the third time I have had to delete Chrome after upgrading. Why don't they make an opt-in link rather than an opt-out link? This is very frustrating!

Create a shortcut to C:/Program Files/CCleaner on your desktop
Download the portable version of CCleaner & drag CCleaner.exe onto the shortcut on the desktop to replace CCleaner with the newer version.
If you have 32 bit Windows, use the 32 bit version, & if you have 64 bit Windows, use the 64 bit edition.
In the future, you can always use the desktop shortcut for a quick replacement from the newest portable CCleaner.
I,ve run into a looping problem when I run the cleaner (it starts looping after 1%) and had uninstalled & reinstalled it 3 times, but still can't get it to work properly. I have been using Cclner. for a few years now and have never had this problem. I am running Xp Sp3 w/1gig ram on a pentium4 chip. yeah I know it's old but as newtons law says if it ain't broke don't fix it, and so far as I can tell everything but Cclner. works fine. Do I have to wait until the next fix to use it again???
