Zennon Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 I use CCleaner but I do not install it as there is a portable version. I would not say you would need to reinstall windows the malware will be in the top vendors definitions now, just scan with malwarebytes , hitman pro , zemana , emsisoft etc and you should be good.

You never know, I don't trust it. They won't even acknowledge they had a problem lol Already reinstalled, no big deal. Took me 30 minutes or so.

Zennon Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 I like AOIME better anyhow after using both. But that's good if the deal was still on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Killhippie Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 23 hours ago, JulianSpringer said: I'm not surprised, by the way, this app delete windows files, which is not great. This thread is 4 years old. Also deleting Windows tmp files is fine, when I used to use windows as my OS CCleaner was a great app. That malware issue was sorted out back in 2017 too.
