I noticed in my Apps today that I have two CCleaner’s installed on my computer. I had hit the “Try new CCleaner” and it installed CCleaner 7 BETA and now I have CCleaner Professional and CCleaner 7 BETA.
Both have my license key and everything looks the same - but I don’t believe I am supposed to be using both apps. Should I delete CCleaner Professional and just move to CCleaner 7 BETA or delete the BETA for now until 7 is released?
Thank you, and apologizes in advance if this is a silly question!
You can have both versions installed at the same time - if you want to - and if you do then it is advised to use both.
V6 is still the “official” release, and it’s entirely your choice whether you also want to try v7 or not.
The version7 Beta is a test version, an advance preview of what it is going to be like.
That means it is not a finished version yet - some things haven’t been implemented yet, and what is there already may be buggy (Thats part of the testing. to find and fix any bugs).
The v7 Beta is currently at Beta Phase 1, although we were told that a major update to it was ‘expected’ yesterday - to add some feature and fix some of the bugs that have already been found - so it may have moved to Phase 2 by the time you read this.
See here for a few more details about the v7 Beta, it also tells you there that you can run it side-by-side with v6
There is also an existing user thread about it here, with a few ‘How To’ links that you might find interesting to read:
