Cleaning up.


Chameleon

Recommended Posts

My HDD is a mess so many progs/games/apps and so on, everything is just everywhere and I am sure so many things I do not even need.. Is there a prog that makes finding this stuff and getting rid of it easier than just searching, I mean more than just a defrag, like hunting down unused progs and useless stuff that is just taking up space? I need to organize and optimize.. Any suggestions?

Just don't check everything in ccleaner

 

Let the things which are unchecked by default unchecked...

 

My father managed to mess up his installation multiple times by checking everything :P

 

 

(I just reformat when I want a clean install XD)

Yeah the clean option can be confusing if you don't know what each does. The option to uninstall programs and mod the startup programs works well though.

Having used them in the shop to clean registry problems, I used different ones over the years.

The one I have the most faith in is:

 

Spotmau Power Suite 2012

 

It will defrag the drive, defrag the registry, get rid of anything that isn't correct in the registry and it will

tune up the start up system.  All of this, and it won't get rid of certain files that you need for certain programs.

Tune-up 360 did that to me once, and I had a mess on my hands getting that PC back to running without losing stuff.
