Marok Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Hey everyone, I'm new to the forums here as you can tell but I've been using CCleaner for years. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone could suggest some more registry/cleaning programs that get a long nicely. Right now I'm just using CCleaner, Revo, and Defraggler.

Moderators hazelnut Posted May 30, 2012 Moderators Share Posted May 30, 2012 As this is the ccleaner forum it's not really the place to discuss other competitors cleaning programs. Apart from that, you may want to consider the fact that too much cleaning of the registry in particular can lead to problems. Apart from that can I welcome you to the forums Support contact https://support.ccleaner.com/s/contact-form?language=en_US&form=general or support@ccleaner.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

razz Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Welcome to the forum Marok. I've used CCleaner for many years and find it does an amazing job. I feel the same about Defraggler. Regarding cleaning your registry, unless you're a really experienced user I would do like Hazel suggests - i.e. don't clean your registry too much. Using CCleaner for that task is your best bet.

Marok Posted June 2, 2012 Author Share Posted June 2, 2012 Thanks everyone. I guess I should have phrased my question a little better. What about other cleaning programs? I'll stick with CCleaner for the registry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren39 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 i would say ccleaner is by far the safest cleaner out there.ive used it for years and never once had any problems.other cleaners notably registry cleaners can hose your system on the next reboot.dangerous programs in my opinion and pure snake oil. online armor firewall. Avast free anti virus. Malwarebytes . SuperAntiSpyware. Hitman Pro. Sandboxie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators hazelnut Posted June 3, 2012 Moderators Share Posted June 3, 2012 As I said Marok, I don't think that as this is the ccleaner forum, that we should have a thread to discuss other cleaning softwares.

Moderators DennisD Posted June 3, 2012 Moderators Share Posted June 3, 2012 +1 to hazels opinion above. Although I will suggest that you're far better off sticking to one cleaning program, and getting to know that program, and what it does for you exactly. CCleaner has a lot of useful features well worth learning about, and there are help files available here ... http://www.piriform.com/docs And if you want to try other cleaners, then you're better off using their product support forums, and I don't mean that to sound rude, just trying to offer sensible advice.

Marok Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 I completely understand. Thanks for the help everyone. I'll refrain from talking about other cleaning programs from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
