CCleaner - Keep your Windows clean and healthy

There are few must install software for any Desktop - notebook Windows installation and one of which is this free software called CCleaner.
What is CCleaner ?
CCleaner is a freeware system optimization and privacy tool. It removes unused files from your system - allowing Windows to run faster and freeing up valuable hard disk space. It also cleans traces of your online activities such as your Internet history. But the best part is that it’s fast (normally taking less than a second to run) and contains NO Spyware or Adware !
This is what the official web site says, how ever to make it simple, when you run Windows and other application, such as photo shop / word / video editing software / Internet browser and any other, every time they run, they create large amount of temporary files in your system.
As you access each software and use them those also creates large number of registry entry and system short cuts (such as recently used documents). When you stop using those application you are not in need of those entries any more but they are left in your system for future references.
This is where CCleaner comes in. It scans and cleans all these junk to free up HDD space and registry entry to fasten up the system performance.
How do you use CCleaner ?
There is a common theory among many of us, about any system configuration applications that they are hard to use as well as they screw up the system.
However this is what I like about this software. The best part is, its really easy to use, as simple as few steps.
Step 1 - Obtain & install the application
Visit CCleaner.com to download this 3 MB file and start the installation, when prompt remove all entries accept Start Menu short cuts and Automatically check for CCleaner updates.
Step 2 - Start and Clean your system
Yes, it is that simple. No other configuration is needed, simply start the application and hit Analyze button.
Notice how much junk is detected and how much can be removed, and hit the Run CCleaner button to execute the cleaning process.
Few Facts which I Like
- Free Software with no ads or any such.
- Simple 3 MB Download.
- Preconfigured - as an user you just need to run it.
- Compatible with Windows XP (x86 / x64) Windows Vista (x86 / x64).
- Maintenance free.

U can use regcleaner by ‘jouni vuorio’.It will not delete the temp files but clean the registry well ,making windows running smoother. And it will help u to stop programes to load during start up, of course for newbies,otherwise u can do so by msconfig.
