I just had someone clean up my computer and he installed this software on it. Without having a lot of computer knowledge can someone explain what this is and what is does? Thank you!!
It is basically a broom and dustpan.. It is also dangerous in the wrong hands. But it can clean out no longer needed files like hot-fix installers, and windows updates.. It can cleare internet history and cookies.. You have control over what it does.. It includes a tool box that can uninstall no longer needed programs and as I recall a registery cleaner (USE WITH EXTREME CAUTION).
The "C" in CCleaner means "Crap" it was designed and written to clean out the******that computers collect which fills up the hard drive so he could reclaim the space it had taken.. Works too.
But I do uncheck a few things (Like I do not normally want to toss my cookies which it does by default)
