CCleaner Review (Video Included)

I was having problems with my computer recently and I needed an application that could scan and fix some of the problems I was having. I tried all the virus scans, malware scans, and even spyware/adware scans, and I came to the conclusion that it wasn’t a problem as far as viruses were concern. So I did some research and found out it could have been a lot of stored files that were not being used. So when I was searching for something to fix this problem I remember an application my class was using a while back called CCleaner. What the software does is scans and cleans out your cookies and cache files from your internet history to protect your privacy from unwanted files. Speaking of unwanted files this program also scans for unused file extensions and fixes them.  Another positive side to this application is that it searches and cleans out your registry on your computer. This is a major plus because some of today’s viruses and worms actually hide in your registry and could affect your entire computers performance and even get into your mail accounts sending off random e-mail. Now the question you may be having is “Does it really work?” I can understand the question because it does seem too good to be true, but I can answer that question with a most definite yes.

            After using this application I started to notice a difference in my computers performance. The boot time has decreased due to the option to disable programs from booting upon start up. My e-mail has also stopped sending off random e-mails to everyone in my contact list, which is good considering I do business through my e-mail a good portion of the time. One of the things this program does which can be considerably annoying is clearing out your internet history which causes you to log out of all the account you recently signed into. It’s not that big of a deal considering I don’t mind re-entering all of the information from time to time, but if I am in a hurry it can be bothersome. Another positive side to this application is on the top left hand corner of the program where it shows you the current specs of your computer. This can be helpful if you want to know which processor you have or what current operating system you are running or even the amount of RAM you have in your computer. It’s a minor thing, but hey, I’m easy to impress.

            Some other software this company provides is Recuva, Speccy, and Defraggler. Recuva recovers deleted files that you may not have wanted to delete. Speccy tells you every bit of detail on what your computer hardware is. And Defraggler is just as it sounds, defragment software. I hope you find this software useful and even helpful and thank you for your time.
