A checkup for your PC

The first of CCleaner Free's handy tools is its so-called Health Check. This feature will scan your PC and search for apps that you no longer use to boost your PC's speed, update outdated apps, remove website trackers and advertisers, and delete junk files that are taking up unnecessary space. All with just one click. However, the program will not make any permanent changes without your confirmation. Before finalizing the process, you can verify that you want to execute all the proposed changes.

Custom Clean, the star of the show

One of CCleaner Free's most useful features is undoubtedly Custom Clean. With this tool, you can choose exactly which parts of your PC you want to clean up. Empty the cache of your different web browsers separately, clear your history or temporary Internet files, clear the Windows Explorer cache, and delete a host of residual files left behind by dozens of programs on a regular basis.

Update your drivers and clean the registry

Another very useful tool within CCleaner Free allows you to take a quick look to see which drivers are out of date.

Don't be alarmed if dozens of entries crop up, as this is relatively common. In such cases, it is best to keep a log and delete them.

A virtual toolbox
