I may have suggested this before, but I think it could be a helpful and simple idea—though it might be more complex on the backend. After a user processes their selections for a computer clean via the Health Check and/or Custom Clean, could we add an option to create a direct CCleaner shortcut based on their chosen cleaner options? Essentially, a “click and run” shortcut. This would eliminate the need to navigate the current Cleaner interface and make it quicker for users. It’s not a major feature, but it could be a convenient addition when running tasks.

You could create a schedule in ccleaner (either custom or healthcheck) then create a shortcut via these (AI derived) steps
To create a shortcut to a task in Windows 11, you can manually create a shortcut and set its Target field to the command for the task, such as C:\Windows\System32\schtasks.exe /Run /TN “TaskName”. Replace “TaskName” with the actual name of your task.
But I like the idea of the application doing it.

I tried
C:\Windows\System32\schtasks.exe /Run /TN “Piriform\CCleaner 7 - Scheduled Cleaning - custom-1 -WINDOWS USER HASH” in the target (Replacing Windows user hash with the hash of your user, don’t worry it’s part of the task name just copy and paste, and using quotes around it) and when i ran it in cmd prompt got
SUCCESS: Attempted to run the scheduled task “Piriform\CCleaner 7 - Scheduled Cleaning - custom-1 -WINDOWS USER HASH”.
and the task said it ran at the time i clicked the shortcut, so in the meantime this should work
