It was originally developed for Microsoft Windows only, but in 2012, a macOS version was released. It is one of the longest-established system cleaners, first launched in 2004. įreemium for home use commercial for use in organisations and institutions ĬCleaner ( / ˈ s iː k l iː n ər/, originally Crap Cleaner), developed by Piriform (a company acquired by Avast in 2017), is a utility used to clean potentially unwanted files and invalid Windows Registry entries from a computer. At least that’d be rational, if unethical.Albanian, Arabic, Armenian, Azeri (Latin), Belarusian, Bosnian, Brazilian Portuguese (Portugues do Brasil), Bulgarian, Burmese, Catalan (Catala), Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Corsican, Croatian (Hrvatski), Czech (Ceský), Danish, Dutch (Nederlands), English, Estonian (Eesti keel), Farsi, Finnish (Suomi), French (Français), Galician, Georgian, German (Deutsch), Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian (Magyar), Indonesian, Italian (Italiano), Japanese, Kazakh, Korean, Kurdish, Latvian, Lithuanian (Lietuviu), Macedonian, Malaysian, Marathi, Mongolian, Norwegian, Polish (Polski), Portuguese (Portugues), Romanian (Romana), Russian, Serbian (Cyrillic), Serbian (Latin), Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish (Espanol), Swedish (Svenska), Tatar, Thai, Turkish (Türkçe), Turkmen, Ukrainian, Vietnamese. I’d like to think the people who still talk it up in comment sections and the like are paid shills or people who work for the company that makes it in some other capacity.

Just on principle, I would say users shouldn’t be blocked from downloading any software in a way that they can’t disable if they are really set on downloading it anyway, but if they enable options to protect them from this type of software, this should be blocked, and if they don’t, they should alerted to what they are doing and given a chance to reconsider before actually downloading it.

Users can always switch those options off temporarily, or, if it’s a prompt that asks you to reconsider by allows you to download anyway, click the download anyway, if they really want to download anyway. That might be consider anti-competitive, so it’s understandable why they don’t, but it meets the criteria.Ĭertainly, browsers that offer a feature to block or prompt users to reconsider when they try to download dangerous software should be doing that when anyone tries to download any of the setup programs for these programs, if those options are turned on inside the browser. I think there is actually a case for Microsoft to remove the software through it’s malicious software removal thing. It’s stuff that does the exact opposite of what it states it’s purpose to be.

It’s not even giving you a free game to play or something. I don’t get how people can be so cautious about Internet privacy and security and then download software that is generally known to be malware malware and that they personally know is malware, with the purpose of using it enhance or manage privacy and security related things. There are, granted, some potential issues with the idea of your operating system providing your anti-virus, but they are far less than the potential issues of running AVG or AVAST, and if you really are that set on not using Microsoft’s anti-virus, some semi-reputable paid alternatives like Norton and McAfee still exist (One or the other is free for Comcast Internet customers, I believe, if you track down the page to download it through Comcast).ĬCleaner is even less understandable than the anti-virus thing, because it doesn’t really do anything that’s necessary.

I understand that some people aren’t willing or able to pay for anti-virus, but Microsoft offers a no-charge ad-free anti-virus with Windows Defender (Initially it was more limited, but it’s a full anti-virus in Windows 10, and possibly in Windows 8 as well ). Even before that, they were a known adware/nagware vendor.ĪVAST and AVG should detect, quarantine, and delete themselves.

I have no idea why people would use this company’s productions.
