Charlie Zuck Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I know I use the free version of CCleaner and have no right to complain, but I will anyway. I do not appreciate when updates add stuff I do not want. I find Google Chrome gleaning too much info from me and have stopped using it! There used to be a manual install process where one could deselect settings when updating CCleaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted August 22, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 22, 2016 You still can decline the google offer in the installer, that has not changed. How would you suggest they make money if not through google (or other) bundling? ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Moderators mta Posted August 22, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 22, 2016 and of course there is still the Slim build that has no such Chrome offerings. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

criawebpt Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 I Agree with this post, offer programs on Installation is not be best way to go. But let's see the positive way, is not adware like others installers.I don't like bloatware, but Chrome is a decent offer doesn't go to make anything bad.

Moderators Nergal Posted September 9, 2016 Moderators Share Posted September 9, 2016 Ok what's the best way to go? No free version of ccleaner? or, even worse, a hobbled ccleaner that can only clean a single gigabyte before nagging you to buy? Perspective does help here, you are correct, but there are multiple other alternatives available (portable, slim, declining the offer) I don't know what else they could do and keep it free.
