Of course, while some admins simply run a CCLeaner scan and leave it at that, you want to do an analysis to see what should have been skipped or cookies to be whitelisted in the future. That said, certain applications like Adobe Creative suite create documents in random place so if you see temporary files being created in the non-temp folder, you can set up some detailed custom areas, allowing you to get rid of junk or garbage being spit out by an application. Ultimately, the key is to balance efficiency with user experience and if your users demand the best performance possible, then checking as many of the boxes as possibly will result in improved performance. There’s also significant menu order cache to clear out from your Windows system to make for a faster Windows experienc that you can access from the Advanced Section. But if you’re like our own VP of Sales & Technology Pete Greco and have some frequently-used documents you don’t wish to lose, you can free up space some other time-tested way.įor instance, if you utilize a password manager so that you don’t save any passwords in your browser, which are then ripe for theft, you can go a long way in freeing up space by compacting your browser databases and clearing out your saved passwords. With Microsoft 2016, the program creates a lot of overhead and thus clearing out your cache for the past year is one way to free up memory. Or if you’re starting fresh, you can determine what exactly you want to clean by going through and selecting the different applications and elements you want cleaned. If you’ve used the free version already, you likely have a preferred methodology in terms of how you scan a machine, which you can simply copy over. You can drill into the scan report once it’s complete in greater detail and sort the items by size and file description. Within the management console, you can click through the different machines you have installed on the CCleaner console and select the ones on which you wish to run a scan that shouldn’t take more than four-to-six seconds and identify the data that can be removed. Other ways that we’ve seen clients push out the latest version of CCleaner to their users is to take advantage of a GPO push-out or PDQ deploy. Or if you want to put it on a thumb drive or network share to push it to your users, you can also set it to unlimited download with unlimited time and send it via an email attachment. One smart thing to do when creating a package for another machine is to have the installer expire to ensure that you’re always downloading the latest version of the product. You can download or create a package for another machine right from the management console. In terms of CCleaner Cloud’s management console, it provides a lot of the features that you’ve likely worked with before if you’ve downloaded the free version in terms of what can be scanned in, cleaned, and how the Defraggler works. That said, you may prefer at least having the option as opposed to on-prem version in which there is nothing you nor the end user can do from the endpoint as it must be controlled via the management console. Following our conversation about Least Privileged Access, when it comes to granting users permissions this is not something we exactly recommend. Unlike the on-prem edition, CCleaner Cloud empowers you to make the product available to your end users. There are two primary versions of the centrally managed CCleaner product, cloudless or on-prem. Nonetheless, there is no equivalent to CCleaner on the market and thus most organizations utilize as a means to augment their endpoint security and best practices. One product that we likely don’t have to recommend to many of you reading this is CCleaner’s free cleaning product, of which there has been over one billion downloads! Of course, just because a product is popular is by no means an indication of whether it’s the right solution for your environment. While we try to provide mid-size business with a range of products so they can choose what is right for them we’d be lying if we said we didn’t pick favorites that we then highlight in our bi-weekly live webinar series.Īfter all, our own business depends on the very products we recommend, from Sophos’ anti-ransomware add-on Intercept X to its Synchronized Security and next-gen endpoint to Kasperksy KSV to the many others that we’ve featured on our YouTube channel over the years. If we’ve learned anything in Productive Corporation’s seventeen years as a company, it’s that we not all products are made equal.
