awvga5 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Looked everywhere & can't find how to do a manual clean or check for viruses on the WD PP. Please advice! TIA Also, my computer is partitioned into 2 drives. Want to run a manual clean on the D drive, can't find where to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted August 31, 2023 Moderators Share Posted August 31, 2023 Ccleaner only cleans (with a few exceptions) the system drive (usually c). Ccleaner does not clean or remedy viruses or malware, it is an application junk cleaner with some extra tools. 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.

awvga5 Posted August 31, 2023 Author Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) Thank you! Do you recommend Defender for viruses & malware? or something else? Edited August 31, 2023 by awvga5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
