Software update: CCleaner 6.12

Piriform has released version 6.12 of CCleaner. This program can clean up various parts of Windows. This includes temporary Windows and Internet files, but also unnecessary junk from a large number of other programs, including Windows Media Player, Google Toolbar, Microsoft Office, Photoshop, WinRAR and so on. In addition, the number of programs that CCleaner can clean up the clutter can easily be expanded with the CCEnhancer program.

In addition to cleanup, CCleaner can also fix registry and shortcut errors, customize the list of programs that start with Windows, and manage cookies. From this version onwards, the overall condition of the computer can also be tested. In addition to a free version, there is also a pro version, which offers, among other things, an automatic update function. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Taking the hassle out of PC maintenance

• Immediately after updating drivers (or after restarting your PC following an update), a report now highlights which drivers have been updated and any that may potentially cause issues – enabling users to revert some or all updates, or schedule a reminder to revert later.

Fixing bugs and other improvements

• CCleaner now loads faster thanks to app startup optimization.
• Fixed issue which, in some cases, resulted in the incorrect message “Not supported product”.
• Customize, Privacy, Space, Speed, and Security screens in Health Check now resize correctly according to the current window.
