CCEnhancer

CCEnhancer is a companion program that works with CCleaner to boost that program’s thoroughness and effectiveness. You do have to have CCleaner already installed on your machine for this app to function in any way.

PROS

Immediate integration: CCEnhancer integrates immediately with CCleaner upon installation. All you have to do to access its increased functionality is to run CCleaner just as you’ve always done.

Noticeable difference: In order to measure the effectiveness of this program, we ran CCleaner on its own before installing CCEnhancer, and then again after. This showed clearly how well the addition of the second program boosted the scanning and cleaning power of the first. There were additional items found in all areas during the second scan, but the most dramatic difference appeared in the Registry scan.

CONS

Convoluted installation: Installing this app can be a little confusing, and it’s hard to tell initially if you’ve done it right. It also asks you to update it as soon as you install, which seems like an unnecessary extra step.

BOTTOM LINE

CCEnhancer is a convenient free program to help you keep your computer running at peak efficiency. While it’s not a standalone option, it does work well with the free version of CCleaner, so you can get this enhanced cleaning combo completely free.
