Over time your computer collects information whether its is from the Internet or just day to day tasks whilst using Windows.These files although are generally harmless can slow down the performance of your computer and every now and again it is good practice to have a "spring clean".
The "spring clean" can be handled in two ways, you can use various options in Windows and your browser to clean the unwanted files or you can use software to do the task.
Here at PCQuickTips we recommend CCleaner.
CCleaner from a company called Piriform handles all of the task of cleaning browsing history and also temporary files from your computer that are no longer needed, this can all be done using just one click, you can even analyze the procedure before you go ahead and remove them, just to double check the amount of space you will be saving and what will be deleted.
The software will also allow you to "untick" all of the items that you would not like deleted such as the contents of the recycle bin, just in case you are unsure as to whether you have sent important files there.
CCleaner is not just a cleaning tool, it also allows you to uninstall software from your computer and clean up the registry (a feature we only recommend experienced user to use!).
One of the best thing about all the features of this software is that it is free.
CCleaner is available to download from here.
