Windows 10: HDCleaner replacing CCleaner Pro

I have been looking for a replacement for CCleaner Pro that would easily allow me to select which cookies to keep when doing the CLEANING option....

HDCleaner looked like a sollid tool, however, when slecting the cookies to keep it failed and deleted all cookies when I would perform the cleaning function...

I emailed Kurt Zimmermann and asked him to look into this BUG... Kurt replied the same day and said he would fix this bug in the next version... Kurt emailed me two days later telling me he has fixed the issue and asked me to try the new version he released today..... THE PROBLEM is solved...

I can say if any of you are looking at a replaced for CCleaner since the Avast takeover you might want to look at HDCleaner...

HDCleaner - CCleaner alternative


Just tested this (portable version)

Kurt Zimmermann Software HDCleaner

If you are using CCEnhancer or added winapp2.ini cleaning plugins file to Ccleaner you can copy the file into HDCleaner folder and save as Unicode and it will import plugins.

@Callender

What app do you use to get tabs on your Windows Explorer? That's a feature I use daily on macOS that I wish was on Windows...

 

HDCleaner - CCleaner alternative

Just to make it clear for anyone else reading this thread. The program needs to be installed with admin rights (run installer as admin) and then launched with admin rights or from an elevated shortcut. I can't comment on problems with Chrome because I won't use Chrome - I only use Chrome variants.

Personally I never tested a default installation. I used a trimmed imported winapp2.ini file from Ccleaner created with CCEnhancer and did not select any volatile entries to be cleaned.
