I'd suggest taking a look at this article: https://support.piriform.com/hc/en-us/articles/204950144-How-do-I-use-CCleaner-for-Windows-Duplicate-File-Finder- (specifically, the Which duplicates should I delete? section). 

In short, though, please do not delete any files from the Windows, Windows.old, or Program Files (or Program Files (x86)) folders - I see several of these listed in the list. 

Files in your Download folders, or libraries such as your Documents, Pictures, or Videos libraries should be fine to delete as long as you're sure you no longer want them. For other folders, though, I'd recommend a great deal of caution.

pay close attention to this part of john's post.

 

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.
