Coders are not want to remove all their junk from you files when you are ready to get rid of an app you don't like or just don't need anymore.

Much easier than scanning with your favorite resident AV/AM solution.ĪND despite what people say about registry editors, I've found that when unruly installer/uninstallers corrupt an uninstall routine, or say an application had an unsuccessful update patch, the registry cleaner undeniably helps fix the problem!! I may not use the registry cleaner for years, unless a problem comes up - because I generally use Revo to cleanup after bad uninstall routines. I've tested for that many times, and I discovered as long as the malware isn't going outside the "temp" folders, you can rid you self of it post haste that way. I like to run it to delete any malware attack files sleeping in the folders waiting for the user to make a mistake.
That last acronym is what Zombie files are called ( or persistent cookies), it is one of the few free ways of getting rid of those nasty files, because not just any file cleaner can do that. Is in removing stuff from the temp files in the app data folder and LSOs.
The only thing size is relevant for these days is to gleefully inform you not even your shiny new SSD RAID array has enough space for what you want to install. The time of ruminating pensively over kilobytes or megabytes of size differences was over the same time floppy disks died, especially knowing that ultimately it only takes a few hundreds of bytes to pwn your ass comprehensively.

In an age where single pieces of software often come in packages of many gigabytes in size, any size change under fifty megs or so is simply random fluctuation, noise, not signal - regardless of how small the original package may have been.Īny new feature, any change in a support lib or localization or skin set or help files or frameworks or build policies or installer options can fully be expected to change the package size by dozens of megabytes randomly, up or down but mostly just up, and there's just no way to tell whether it's a legit change or not unless you're willing to wait and see whether it blows up for any upgrade. Search "cred" in the control panel and check what accounts are in there. I'm currently seeing/investigating an issue with an account that keeps getting created in the "Credentials Manager" on Windows 10, I'm starting to wonder if this is related to CCleaner on a machine that did get it. It's always worth a bit of due-diligence, and think why has an installer increased in size by a third? I saw the size increase and backed off from updating. At the time I searched and also found another version on the Piriform website - CCleaner 'slim' which was still 6.8MB in size.

The installer will install Google Chrome if it's not already installed on the machine. On seeing the size increase, I assumed they were shipping some form of Google Chrome add-on/other software included. (Oddly 5.34 is still 9.4MB, but downloading the update in the software downloads 6.4MB). I had version 5.32 installed, and noticed the download installer had increased in size to 9.4MB for version 5.33, up from 6.8MB for 5.32. The article is confusing because Piriform is now owned by Avast, but the installer that is infected was downloaded in the normal way when you check for upgrade via FileHippo/Pirform This is the normal standalone installer that everyone uses. No, this is the normal version of CCleaner that is affected, not some specialist Avast version, shipped with Avast, avast now own Piriform.
