How often, in CC, should I use anything

[slowday444]

under the Windows tab Advanced menu or anything under Applications tab Windows menu? I keep MS Word and Paint enabled (even though I rarely use them).

From the Beginner's Guide:

 

II. Windows

 

On your left you have check boxes to select what you would like to clean or not to clean.

 

Tip: I recommend using the default checked boxes and running Advanced maybe once a month or so.

 

At the bottom of Progress you have Analyze and Run Cleaner.

 

Clicking on Analyze will create a list of everything CCleaner is going to clean. You can right click in he big white box and save the list as a text file.

 

Clicking on Run Cleaner will clean everything. You can right click in he big white box and save the list as a text file. Note: you do not have to run Analyze, if you do not wish too.

III. Applications

 

On your left you have check boxes to select what you would like to clean or not to clean.

 

Tip: I recommend having them all checked. Unless you are a business or use the documents alot, I would uncheck the Office box under Applications.

 

The Applications cleaning is tied in with the Windows cleaning, so it cleans them both at once. You do not have to click on each individual tab to clean Windows and Applications.
