Its up to you. CCleaner is pretty safe with its issues cleaner. Just clean them and make a backup when it prompts you, then if you have a problem just restore the backup. You could also be extra careful if you wanted and make a registry backup with ERUNT before running the issues cleaner.

It's always a bit worrying when you first use new software isn't it?

 

Fortunately CCleaner, when you do an "issues" scan and decide to fix, offers you the option of making a backup which you can save in "my documents" Then in the unlikely event of something going wrong, you just right-click on the backup reg file and choose merge. I personally have never had anything go wrong.
