what does cccleaner do with the items listed under applications?

CCleaner for Windows
1

I am a relatively new cccleaner user.

I have not been able to find an answer to what CCCleaner does with all the programs listed under the application tab.

I'd like to ensure nothing is going to effect the way the programs work if i run cccleaner with its default lists and settings.

Can someone provide a simple and clear explanation of what CCCleaner does with these entries so I can determine if I have to delete them from the list or not.

Also, please correct me if I am wrong but....

I happened to see the uninstall tab and have concluded it just provides a list of all my programs and that they will not be uninstalled by being in the list, but are there so the user can easily select the ones to be uninstalled (nicely done!). I hope this is correct.

Perhaps a read of the ccleaner online documentation may answer some of you queries.

Also your assumption about the uninstall list is correct

Anymore questions just ask.

Welcome to the forum :)

I am also new to CCleaner and to the Forum. I have read the referenced material and still do not know what happens to those apps listed under applications. Can someone clarify?
