Ccleaner Portable version question (Ccleaner64)

[AlexCa]

Hello,

 

inside Ccleaner portable folder there is "CCleaner.exe" and "Ccleaner64.exe".

 

I normally run Ccleaner.exe in my windows 7 x64 machine without any noticeable problem.

 

Is that ok to do that, or should i run Ccleaner64.exe?

 

thanks in advance

Yes and No.

 

When you launch Ccleaner.exe it SHOULD handover to Ccleaner64.exe which then cleans "Program Files" and "Program Files (x86)" etc. etc. etc.

 

This handover is fully automatic and like all computer things- can never go wrong- can never go wrong- can never go wrong- can never go wrong- can never go wrong

BSOD - BSOD - BSOD - BSOD - BSOD - BSOD - BSOD.

 

If the handover misfires, or if you save disk space by removing Ccleaner64.exe,

then the 32 bit CCleaner.exe wll NOT cleanup any 64 bit programs which should reside in "Program Files".
