Just installed CC Professional

I have been CC for many years now and decided to upgrade to the CC Professional.

I am certainly not Tech minded.

I am running W7 and not likely to change.

I tried reading the instructions but the more I read the more confused I became

I would like to know what should I Tick or not Tick in Cleaner?

Is there any other ???? that should be ticked?

Thanking you Keith :mellow: :mellow:

the default settings are normally fine the way they are, but, being a personal thing, it'll all depend on your PC usage and what you are running CC for.

it can be customised to include extra areas, or exclude things you don't want touched for example.

the Pro settings are the same as the Free version as far as categories covered, so if you have been using CC for years, they will be no new learning curve.

if you do want to changing settings, you can tick the new option then Analyse to see what it does.

Hello mta

you can tick the new option then Analyse to see what it does.

I ticked the Option, then I see About & Advanced. Where is Analyse?

Its all the "Ticks" in "Cleaner"

I very recently bought a new Computer Tower and I do not know if all the "Ticks" have been done.,

click the Cleaner button, top left column, all your selectable options for cleaning are there.

instead of clicking Run Cleaner (bottom right) you can click Analyse (bottom left) instead, that will tell you how your options will effect the cleaning process with any changes being done.

or you can right click each option and choose Analyse for that option.

I clicked Analyse and every one had been previously ticked.

Now does that mean I do not have to tick any of the unticked boxes.

When you install CCleaner and open it up for the first time, some of the boxes on the left of the page are ticked and some are not.

This is known as a default install, and are the safest things to have ticked, and it's the way that most users run it.

Thank you mta and hazelnut, you have both been very helpful.

Now does this mean its not required to tick any of the others?

If I was to tick any of the unticked what would you recommend?

Most people just run with the default especially those who aren't really into the technical side of things.

Unless you are comfortable around computers and understand what they do and how they do it, it is probably wise to leave things at the default setting.

It does no harm though Keith to do a bit of reading, so here is the link to the online documentation
