Computer Software Utility.......

[Xcusme]

Here's a solution for folks that seem to collect a lot of extraneous files on their systems. Best of all, it's free. CCleaner

I agree with what you say about CCleaner Xcusme but do you ever have to be careful with it when you delete things. If you don't know what you are doing, you can cause damage with it. It's user beware when deleting with this program.

How True! But it's like ANY utility, you have to read the doc file and see if it fits your needs. Do a search for the program, read reviews, etc. I guess any tool in the wrong hands can do more damage in short order in an attempt to fix or repair problems.

Spoken like a true pro Xcusme! I almost did it to myself one time and sure learned my lesson real quick.

It says that it allows windows to run faster. Anyone notice a difference when they ran this utility?

BigPoppa G.....I didn't notice a big difference but it would depend on how many files you have lying around. The more you have and if you don't clean up often, then it will be noticeable. I always do a disk scan and defrag once a week and this I have scheduled to do so I never miss doing them. I also clean up my temp internet files/offline files weekely as well so I don't have alot of clutter at my end.

If you want Windows to run faster, install Linux )
