Optimizer
After I optimize my pc windows 10, I then use ccleaner fo finish the job. Is there anyway to completely clean the pc with webroot optimizer?:D Thanks for any help.

No worries...but as I was trying to say...what CCleaner considers as right for removal may well be different from what the good folks at Webroot consider is safe to clean...it is a matter of perspective re. what 'cleaning' means.
I would wager that if you ran Optimizer then CCleaner and then ran another cleaning app that last app run would find something that CCleaner had 'missed', when compared to what the authors of the last app considered to be a target for cleaning.
So basically put each cleaning app's authors wil have there view as to what should be removed...they will overlap in many areas but not all...hence the apparent disparity you are seeing.
Hope that better explains things?

Hi PoPCorn
That really depends on what you mean by "completely clean", and given that I believe that the problem word is 'completely' I would say that the answer is 'No', for the simple reason that there is no definition of what is 'completely' clean. What might be viewed a detritus by some would be seen as key by others. Take MRUs; a number of applications make a big deal about 'cleaning' these out when for others they are an important part of Windows which they want to keep and use.
So the only way to make sure that Optimizer is 'completely' cleaning things up is to check all the optiosn for it under Advanced Settings, and then in terms of what Optimizer can do you have 'complete' cleaning.
Hope that I have not confused you?

Thanks does not take much to confuse me:D What I am trying to say is this after I optimize webroot then I use ccleaner and what optimzer did not removed the ccleaner removed. Example: Internet Explorer-1 files
Windows Explorer cache 3,080 kb -15 files
System windows log Files 873 kb -13 files
Firefox internet cache 185kb -12 files
Firefox cookies---0
Firefox session- 1kb- 1 file
Windows Ms search 4,096- 4 files
These files were missed by webroot. I just wonder why webroot did not clear these files with its optimizer?
