Best Alternative To CCleaner For Windows 10

[@050650tallguy]

What a brilliant idea Brian, I have been using Disk Cleanup forever but never knew you could do this. Well done that Englishman.

[@mlsmls5495]

I'm just never amazed at how some people throw in there 2cents but never making any videos themselves!! I appreciate your videos Mr. B. Thanks for all the great tips...

[@Britec09]

That's KZbin for you lol and you're welcome.

[@jamesrockford5145]

that's a good one , lol.

[@1954BJohn]

Great info Brian! Many Thanks... Used CC since day one - will continue to - but really appreciate the video..

[@Britec09]

Yeah I use CCleaner, this is for them people who don't trust CCleaner no more.

[@jamesmiller3816]

As you pointed out, a lot of people are not aware of " Windows Task Scheduler," I found out about it some six months ago. If you are inclined to do so, would you do a more extensive video tutorial on the program? I appreciate your work.

[@Britec09]

I see what I can do James.

[@Senon1172K4]

britec pumping out vids LIKE A BOSS!

[@Britec09]

I have actually slowed down lol

[@Senon1172K4]

Britec09 naa bro even tho u might have slowed down ur vids r awesome !! 😁😁😋

[@Britec09]

Thanks

[@jonathanmaybury5698]

Brian you should use it on the 1st and 16th of every month, not much point in using it on the first and last of every month.

[@Britec09]

Good point.

[@malcytull]

Nice one Brian, my Mrs knows how to add an argument LOL.

[@Britec09]

lol they sure do.

[@leekmitx2420]

Britec09 what's not to trust about cleaner?

[@JTBivens]

He is referring to how a while back many lost trust because the company that owns it (Piriform) was hacked. They slipped a bit of Malware into CCleaner. They fixed it very quickly. But many lost trust in it. It is a great tool. though. And as I said they fixed the issue. Cheers.

[@Britec09]

That is correct, I still use CCleaner.

[@spmj1251]

Very good hints! I always worry about cleaning brian. I do it multiple times a day. Going to try setting up as seen in vid🤓

[@Bacaz27]

Hi Brian, In Windows 10 . Tap on the Windows-key, enter Disk Cleanup in Cortana and select the result from the list that is displayed. Click ok on the first screen and wait for the scan to complete,tick selections. Click on clean up system files once the window is displayed on the screen.

[@Schnitzer325ci]

Thanks Brian. Personally I stick to CC. Yes after 15 years they had a minor issue. But nothing to lose your mind over. I personally suggest you run disk cleanup elevated as admin. After a reboot then run CC for reg clean. If you run CC reg clean you may end up with problems as some of the files are still pending install and need to be orphaned first. Anywho.. that's my two pence.. Thanks again 👍🏾

[@Britec09]

Nothing wrong with CCleaner I use it myself, but this is for people who said they did not want to use CCleaner

[@dimitrismaster]

is there really a point running reg clean in todays fast systems?It meant something back in the day but in windows 10 and multicore systems and ssds..i dunno .

[@detmer87]

dimitrismaster It's NEVER recommended to use a regcleaner. Microsoft has been very clear about this matter. You only risking abnomalities and potential problems when using a reg cleaner. No speed gain or such, that's total marketing BS, atleast for Windows 10

[@pastoryoda2789]

CCleaner is dead to me

[@pastoryoda2789]

@@dimitrismaster i agree i recommend a 3rd party cleaner that is fast like BleachBit

[@KeronBullock]

As always awesome video! Those are great methods. 🙂

[@Britec09]

Thanks

[@KeronBullock]

Welcome 🙂

[@adrianmutya6653]

Another wonderful video Brian 👏👏👏👍

[@TimsComputerRepair]

Hey good video showing different ways of executing cleaners.

[@svarionare]

Thanks! I didn't even know it existed! 😁

[@aljr55]

I'm using Windows 10 64bit and my scheduled task did not run automatically when I clicked on run. It just opened up the Disk Clean up box and no items were checked.

[@zx8401ztv]

Thanks Brian :-D Ive never needed to schedule anything, so i havnt used it eather lol. I do it manually, i do use a bucket of programs and i have never had a problem with ccleaner. Although i did stick to the older version because i liked the interface better. "Never change for the sake of change."

[@Britec09]

if it aint broke dont fix it

[@Rood67]

Nice video as always, good info. I switched from CCleaner to JetClean from BlueSpriga few years ago. However, I find this to be a useful system administrator way of automating some simple clean up on users machines. Now to go find and export the registry key so it can be added to all the local machines, and set it to run in scheduler at user log on. But I'll keep using JetClean for registry clean up.

[@red94mr28]

I'm looking for a registry cleaner so visited JetClean. Saw that JetClean hasn't been updated since 2012 and the last update to the website was 2013. It's also doesn't support Windows 10 although it may run on it.

[@tadpoles10]

Thanks as always for this 'hidden help', I noticed you have a Norton Ghost shortcut on your desktop. Is this an 'old' edition or something in use with Windows 10? atb t ..

[@Britec09]

You can still use it on windows 10, i show you how.

[@ThisSideGlassbottle651]

got it all set up and running thanks Mate

[@Britec09]

Glad you like it.

[@derjager2991]

Brian can this be used with an SSD?

[@resistor8735]

Is Total PC Cleaner in the Microsoft store safe and effective?

[@mnauditt]

Hi Britec, why does the program check also disk D (on C disk is Windows) ? Can it be edited only for C disk to scan? Thanks.

[@RIPUZI]

Thanks Brian. Super work again.

[@Britec09]

You're welcome

[@HarryKrafft]

I was wondering if the alternative cleaner also cleans the password management in Chrome. One of my experience was that the cc cleaner once did,

[@DarthRaver-og7qq]

I just got my new gaming rig about a month ago and downloaded ccleaner. i had no problems until about the first couple of weeks when suddenly my windows 10 started getting corrupted files and wouldnt download any updates. I uninstalled my anti virus just to make sure it wasnt that and my windows corruption problem got so bad I had to do a fresh install of windows. I dont know if Ccleaner was the culprit but it seemed to start about a week after I downloaded it. I know the malware scare was about 6 months ago...is ccleaner safe to use now in 2018??

[@jdsgotninelives]

another great tutorial Brian :-)

[@derjager2991]

Britec, after the task ran, installed windows updates are no longer visible, help

[@bobmusikk]

Tried it and works good. Is it possible to make it run only on C: drive? thanks

[@davidsweeney111]

Brilliant! very informative, will give it a go, thanks Brian! ps thanks for the DNS video, my internet is much faster than the standard virgin media now :)

[@Britec09]

My virginmedia DNS is real bad also and I find browsing with different DNS helps with faster browsing

[@yourpcmd]

Have you noticed that Avast has removed CCleaner portable?

[@misplacedmodifier46]

My preference is PrivaZer

[@metro20339801]

Privazer is a great tool, i have it as portable and i run it from a ram disk.

[@nathandodgson8352]

Can you do OSX tutorials?

[@Britec09]

If enough people want them I will

[@keiou]

Hey Brian. If ever you’ll do, can you please do the tutorial for someone who was from Windows to OSX? Thanks.

[@bjdavis51]

Excellent, as usual! Thanks!!!

[@Britec09]

Thanks

[@ronkincaid9107]

BRIAN = what is your opinion of Wise disk cleaner & Wise registry cleaner?

[@Britec09]

Not looked at it in a while, I will take a look.

[@RamonGomezJrHernandez]

Would love see a reg cleaner.

[@Sanyi1978]

Good idea! But I also use Wise's products.

[@seekfactsnotfiction9056]

So which one is better CCleaner or this one?!

[@Britec09]

I use CCleaner. This is for people who don't want to use CCleaner.

[@alvzcizzler]

CCleaner is the best! Also I heard about a program called Advanced System Care from a company called IObit, It has 3 versions, Free, Pro and Ultimate, and claims to make your PC run like new and stuff, Could you make a video on IObit? Please Brian I'm curious about their products.

[@wysetech2000]

Iobit used to have good products but now they are full of ad and spyware.

[@Britec09]

IObit is snakeoil

[@alvzcizzler]

Britec09 Well ok lol but their products just seems cool and interesting

[@clipizi5118]

I have so much respect for you not going to that cab driver audition. oi

[@MegaUser213]

Thank you Brian!

[@knoxxgrim9991]

GREAT INFO BUT I DONT KNOW ABOUT GETTING RID OF YOUR OLD SYSTEM UPDATE FILES ......I HEARD THAT WASNT A GOOD IDEA....BECAUSE SOME OF THOSE FILES ARE STILL IN USE WITH THE NEW UPDATE FILES

[@Schnitzer325ci]

Knoxxgrim That's a phalacy. Run the cleanup and free yourself of problems. All that stuff was way back in the XP days. Just make sure your system is in a clean boot before doing so.

[@knoxxgrim9991]

what do you mean clean boot?

[@voyager4328]

Hi Brian, what is your opinion on ccleaner, thanks. As a sub i sure would appreciate your opinion : )

[@Britec09]

CCleaner is fine to use

[@ivanguerra1260]

WOW !! Great Briantain

[@margyjr]

just tried cleanmgr.exe, love it thanks Brian!

[@Britec09]

You're welcome.

[@paulhaywood7685]

Excellent info!!!

[@Britec09]

Thanks Paul

[@sohambiswas8865]

Damn never knew abt the task scheduler

[@j.tomahawk5412]

Thanks for this ... don't know these hidden settings can be opened in cmd (Admin). Also there a way to cleanup all old logs in event viewer that build up over time, cmd (admin).... for /F "tokens=*" %1 in ('wevtutil.exe el') DO wevtutil.exe cl "%1"

[@djklink20009]

nice alternative cheers brian

[@Britec09]

You're welcome.

[@yannisgk]

i use avast's cleanup premium (satisfied till now)

[@yannisgk]

thx Brian!!! (youre very welcome)

[@line6bassmanTR]

All C Cleaner ever did is mess my computer up. If you don't know what your doing and let it do it itself it will screw things up....

[@nick92065]

Very cool.

[@TheMojophotos]

I use ASC.

[@Technical360abc]

💖

[@Britec09]

Thanks

[@TheCooperman666]

What scare?

[@MerolaC]

The version of CCleaner 5.33.6162 x86 (32 Bit) had malware in it.

[@TheCooperman666]

Realy? thats worrying.

[@OcRefrig]

Just run malwarebytes and Sleep with piece of mind.

[@cloggsy1971]

What scare; I hadn’t heard anything???

[@dmw870]

In September 2017, CCleaner v5.33 (32-bit Windows) was compromised with the Floxif trojan that could install a backdoor enabling remote access of 2.27 million infected machines. Of these 2.27 million PCs, 40 received a second-stage payload that appears to have targeted technology companies such as Samsung, Intel and VMWare. On 13 September Piriform released CCleaner 5.34 and CCleaner Cloud 1.07.3191 that do not contain the malicious code.

[@inikkosugimoto9841]

baidu pc faster is better than CCleaner

[@MaskedGEEK]

Ultimate way to clean Windows: set a task to run at computer start: format c: /X. Lol

[@OcRefrig]

Oh yea , Thatl get that harddrive squeaky clean ! As in erase all your data. Nobody do this. Joker.

[@MaskedGEEK]

That’s why I put the “lol” at the end. But yeah this command WILL format your Windows installations drive, even if you have Windows installed elsewhere it’ll remove the MBR needed to point your PC to where your OS is stored, so unless you have a genuine reason to format your drive ( which is easier in a reinstallation of an OS compared to using this command anyway), it is strongly suggested NOT to use this command.

[@bazwillrun]

CC is fixed..people that wont use it anymore are the sort of people that shouldnt even be using computers in the first place...a pathetic kneejerk reaction , I still havent actually heard of anybody suffering as a result of the hack

[@Britec09]

One mistake is all it takes to turn people, look at the flak windows 10 get everyday?
