A while back I tested CCleaner in a Virtual Machine because of a similar question like you posted and while I didn't spend much time with it, what time I did I felt it was a well written program and was safe to use and had I not already have my own methods/techniques of dealing with keeping my systems clean I'd probably be using it instead.Īs to learning how to create scripts for cleaning up, or any purpose for thst matter, the Internet is full of resources and Google is your friend. Now I'm not trying to imply there is anything wrong with the way CCleaner cleans the Windows Registry and my Windows Registry cleaning comments are meant to be very general in nature and a warning as not all programs are created equal. I've seen to many "cleaner type" programs trash the Windows Registry so I would never use that function in any "cleaner type" program without having a current backup of the Windows Registry from which to restore if something went wrong. Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with using a program like CCleaner except for taking caution when using Windows Registry cleaning functions. I was working with computers back in the day of no GUI or Windows, at first it was with punched cards and then from the Command Line, so programing became a natural skill set and as such over the years users like myself developed our own programs to do what can be done with programs like CCleaner, etc.
