tigerjack Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Lately it seems that Ccleaner has lost some position compared to similar softwares. Someone talks of too much intrusiveness, problems of incompatibility with antivirus (for example Kaspersky) and, in the end, of little effectiveness. I do not know if this is completely true or if these programs are really necessary, however I have heard well of BleachBit, an open source program, now also available for Windows. Who uses it could give an opinion? THX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the last few years it has had several problems not the least of which was the company, Piriform, was sold to Avast. I never liked or had much faith in Avast, and after testing some years ago, never used their products. Under Avast the quality of Ccleaner seemed to be greatly reduced. I started using BleachBit. I have not found any problems with it so far in what it chooses to delete on the systems I have it installed on. I also use custom scripts to delete items on some systems instead of using a program, a habit that evolved during the days of Windows 3 batch files. Personally I don't use pirated programs on any of my installed systems, so the comparison between a purchased Ccleaner license and a donation to BleachBit is not a difficult decision to make. If you don't want to donate to BleachBit you don't have to, but I normally donate to donation software for every system I install a program on, sometimes as much as what a retail program would cost based on the value I place on the quality of the donation ware. The problem with a lot of donation software is there are a lot of cheap people (I call them cheap motherf*ckers to their face) in this world who give nothing and eventually a program will move from donation to retail and that usually begins a death sentence for the program.

Knightmare Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I haven't had much issue with CCleaner, but I don't think I use it as intensely as other users. It does what I need it to do, which is clean all of my browsers and cleans the most used folders in Windows. I did have an issue when I used Bleachbit that slowed down my system horribly. I think I checked something that I shouldn't have but it all just comes down to what you want: CCleaner gets the job done but doesn't go as deep into the system like other cleaners; however, Bleachbit goes deep into the system but has the risk of deleting something important. Choose wisely...or choose crazy: use both! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I4rg£8all8ag Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 PrivaZer, donation version (Portable or install) or O&O Safe Erase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erp-ster0 Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I still use CCleaner (slim version not pro or any higher edition) on some of my PCs and it gets the job done sometimes avast releases a buggy version of ccleaner but most of the time I get a stable version of it and I have also used bleachbhit (a portable one) on one PC and I found no problems on that one so it really boils down to preference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brain_death Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 I use Bleachbit on the Linux desktop since it is cross-platform, plus PrivaZer and CCleaner (with CCEnhancer) on Windows only. But like folk are saying, maybe CCleaner has seen better days... 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soft Organizer is uninstaller, not a cleaner. If You prefer ChemTable, Reg Organizer has also traces cleaning capabilities. I prefer Privazer over earlier familiar Ccleaner or Bleachbit, and there is also other cleaners before these two to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
