Top 5 CCleaner Alternatives for Maintaining Your PC!

[@BrettInTech]

I chose the top pick due to its pure simplicity without any ads, pop-ups or unnecessary extra tools, plus I'm biased towards free and open source programs. 😀 Prior to using any system cleanup program, it's always best to create a system restore point... Thanks for watching!

[@vighneshvighnesh844]

Top 10 under 100 mb must have windows software next

[@Albert-fe8jx]

Thank you. I always liked ccleaner mostly because of it's registry cleanup feature, but with the always-on, always-watching incorporated into the current releases, I decided I would rather be able to control which software would be allowed to run and when. Bleachbit is primarily a deep cleaner.

[@CharlesvanDijk-ir6bl]

Exactly I cleaned my computer manually and afterwards created a restore point and don't need any freebies which are dodgy or will be dodgy some time.

[@HaveFaithInGod]

@@CharlesvanDijk-ir6bl Many or most of us don't have the skills to do a system clean up manually. So why would you even comment? Not helpful. Thanks.

[@brianwings6908]

Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else needs to find out about how to clean registry try Skyarza Faster PC Star (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got cool results with it.

[@dylandreisbach1986]

Its weird hearing someone say Ccleaner for the first time. Up until now, I have always said it in my head as "CC Cleeaner" and it kind of stuck for me.

[@christesterman]

Same HAHA

[@stash2823]

Lmao me too its sound better

[@scottmccrea1873]

Thanks for this. Ccleaner now also pops up randomly informing me that's updated itself even after being set not to run at start up. This I don't like. It seems to run about the same as it always did.

Thanks for the recommendations! I'll find one right for me. In many cases though, I've used Eraser for years. Either I missed it (most likely) or those profiled didn't list individual folder/file selections. Eraser provides: multi-wipe options (up to 36 pass); File/Folder selection; free for personal use; HDD/SSD wipe; temp/cache/browser clean up.

I've been using Glary Utilities for several years now and it really does work well. I started with the free version but after a few years I upgraded to the paid subscription which gives a few additional features, plus they were offering additional software with the upgrade. A full scan on my laptop takes about 30-40 minutes but if I uncheck some unnecessary steps I can get it down to about 10 minutes.

[@casperblackcat1975]

I'm currently using Utilities I wanted to try It as I'd been using Advanced System Care for a few years & so far Glary has impressed me especially with repairing disks It gives a much better scan.

[@Tony-rl2fr]

Auslogic. I’ve been using it for a month or so now. So far I like it. I may even purchase the pro version. It has done a great job, doesn’t bother me with too many pop-ups, has not corrupted my Win10 OS, and is easy to use. The only thing I question is that it wants to “optimize” (NOT DEFRAG) my SSD. It does recognize that it is an SSD. So far I have chosen not to do so because I’m not sure what they mean by “optimize”. Other than that, I’m diggin’ it.

[@EgoShredder]

I've used this for a few years and it picks up stuff CC misses, and fixes malfunctioning software sometimes. You have to be very careful when installing it though, to select "Decline" and any relevant tick boxes to avoid any unwanted crap being installed.

[@1rbeaucha]

[@neardaniel]

I have been using Advanced SystemCare for a couple of years and I have to admit its really good. I upgraded to the PRO version and its worth it in my opinion. The pro version speeds up everything and its basically automatic. The interface is really good and easy to use, u can even change the theme, either through the software or downloading from their forums. I recommend it basically. Good video and have a good day :)

[@julianbonskilzz]

[@Nick41622]

Malwarebytes hates Advanced SystemCare & so do I sorry.

[@neardaniel]

which one do you prefer?

[@neardaniel]

I might give it a try then ty =)

[@Derpingtonshere]

I liked advanced systemcare for a few years until it became separated into 10 different programs and you need pro for each thing for it to actually do anything. The defrag program and the anti malware program they have now used to be included in the ultimate version but they removed it because it did too well. As we all know the more programs you have running the heavier on the resources. I would recommend moving away from Iobit products as they are becoming a very greedy company. I am going to be honest and this is from my and many many others experiences. All you need is malwarebytes and windows defender. People are going to come and bash Windows defender because it used to be crap but it has become one of the best out there that are free, and no need to install 3rd party software.

Not sure if it is interesting to support software that forces (?) disk defrag, while in 2019 SSD's are very common now. Maybe the fact it does support Windows XP, is an indicator for the fact this software is to be used on old computers ? I guess there is an SSD detector built-in, right ?

Gamespark I read that System Mechanic free and pro are best at #1. However, what’s the difference between the two? Also tuneup programs seem to throw in anti spyware and virus protection which is annoying as if you have AVG or Norton etc it could conflict?

[@alanjipy55]

@@michaelgould1706 All registry cleaners do more harm than good, you should never delete files from the registry it will get corrupt, same with tune-up programs, when you install Avg for the first time, do a custom install uncheck clean-up. Cleaning up Windows Registry, does not speed up your computer. The point is, why bother messing with the registry if those useless registry files do nothing to harm your PC performance in the first place? Running a registry cleaner is essentially a waste of time and runs the risk of only causing more problems. Windows is designed to deal with the registry and any potential registry errors. If Microsoft felt that cleaning the registry would help your computer, they probably would have built it into Windows by now. They haven't because the registry doesn't need to be cleaned, despite what others may have told you. Registry keys do not take up enough space for us to even notice them nowadays. I actually have doubts about whether or not there was a computer performance boost from cleaning your registry 10 years ago.

CCleaner, Wise, Advanced, Glary, Privazer, all come in a FREE Version. Most are not open source. MOST of these apps try to start when you start windows, and THAT is an issue. Personally I like to start them when I want them to, and not have them running in the background. Advanced is really bad at cleaning programs from your start menu, programs that you actually WANT to start. Most will not HARM your PC by removing things you need, but SOME WILL. Be careful. Back up first. Haven't tried BleachBit yet, so no comment on it. Privazer is the least intrusive, and has always worked flawlessly. CCleaner, agree with comments. Wise, less intrusive than Advanced. Glary, OK but always wants to start in the start menu.
