    @bjm_ we're looking into the cleaning rule duplication issue. I may come back with some questions on this regarding your setup.

    @EASTER ... I use it very carefully.
    It does what I want it to do just using the basic custom cleaning. I hardly have any cookies because of using Sandboxie.
    I don't use any of the PC Health Check and Software Updater stuff.

    this is what cc's supposed to be like, and exactly the way i use it. mr @Stephen CCleaner had asked for our feedback but it seems they used none of it. :thumbd:

    Same here. Why is it so hard for them to provide a simple, no-frills Windows cleaner? No "extra" features, no "health check", no software updater, no phoning home, just a simple cleaner.

    FWIW I like CCleaner and have now forgiven them for the debacle a few years ago. I only update occasionally, using the slim version, and block all phone homes with a simple rule in WFC. It keeps my aging laptop in excellent running order.

    Our customer feedback sample size includes more than just a handful of voices because we have more than just a handful of customers.

    This was not an 'Avast' decision, by the way. CCleaner operates as a fairly independent business unit within Avast. We're happy to take the credit or criticism for our product decisions on the chin.

    so i should keep my very rare used "5.76.8269"? :argh:

    If i want a full featured system tool i would use glary's tool.
    Driver updater - pfft. it is well known that such tools destroy windows, in case of windows 10 absolute futile, windows 10 can do on its own. Windows 8 has a market share of <4%, less than windows 7 which is EOL for the mass.

    then let me tell you this, mr. ccleaner. we, as those handful of customers, have more than just a handful of choices of cleaners.

    congrats on your decision to ruin what once was a simple yet very useful cleaner. :rolleyes:

    They are destroying one of the main reasons I used to use CCleaner, that it only does what its supposed to. Now a driver updater, soon a software updates, and next, an all in one snake oil suite that will shred your computer like.... (not gonna name them here)
