I am a heavy user (as in I use my computer a lot) and I clean the hard drive around every 6 weeks or so. Heavy users should clean more often than light users. does this mean Ccleaner is not to be relyed upon?ģ) In my opinion yes, cleaning is worthwhile, it’s only the frequency that may differ. can anyone excplain why Privazer sees differnt things from Cc leaner, my old standby of long standing?ģ. has anyone else experienced this peculiar apppearance of double icons?Ģ. after a fresh download things seem to be as expected, single icons, scan terminated and cleaned about 4GB – all this after I ran Ccleaner yesterday!ġ. after a re-install, same freezing on Start & Jump Lists (FF not running so not scanned), still duplicated iconsĤ. Privazer froze while scanning Browsers – had to use Task Man to kill the whole process (FF running)ģ. In the Downloads directory there was a single instance.Ģ. The first odd thing I noticed was two of everything i.e two shortcut icons appeared on my desktop in and two in my systen tray. I have a few comments/questions I hope you feel able to comment on:ġ. Here are screenshots of the first and last options, just to give you an idea:Ĭame across this thread, having just downloaded (an hour ago) Privazer.

The innovations begin with the installation process where users are offered three choices Full install – Run without installation – Create portable version: PrivaZer is a 3.7MB download and scans 100% clean through Virus Total. There are lots of these types of free cleaning tools available but PrivaZer introduces several innovations and new areas which tend to make it stand out from the crowd. PrivaZeris a relatively new cleanup/privacy tool, similar in vein to CCleaner, which has been developed by a US-based company and is reputed to be very thorough.
