CCleaner just got updated to 2.21.940.

Starting with this version a special installer is available for U3 pendrive users.

There are a few additions to the supported applications for cleaning (see changelog for list) as well as various fixes and improvements (Windows 7, Windows 98, registry cleaning on 64-bit, and so on).

CCleaner just got updated to 2.20.920. Mostly fixes and UI tweaks.

Another minor version bump for CCleaner, 2.19.901, fixing a Firefox-related regression introduced in the previous release.

Minor version bump for CCleaner: 2.19.900.

CCleaner 2.18.878 is now available.

The most interesting addition in this version is the support for Internet Explorer 8 cleaning.

There are a few bugfixes as well plus improvements to the free disk space wiping routines.

Piriform’s CCleaner software has reached a new version: 2.15.815.

Beside minor bug fixes and a few changes, there’s a new and very interesting feature. CCleaner now has a command-line switch which enables secure deletion of certain files or folders. To use it, open a command prompt window in CCleaner’s install directory and run:

(1) ccleaner.exe /delete FILENAME.EXT - to secure delete a single file
(2) ccleaner.exe /delete FOLDER - to secure delete a folder
(3) use wildcards such as * and ? to delete multiple files or folders: ccleaner.exe /delete *.txt - to delete all txt files in the current folder

After the command is ran, CCleaner will ask for confirmation that you really wish to remove the files or folders then proceed to securely deleting them.

Note: file or folder names that contain spaces should be enclosed in double quotes (eg: “file name with spaces.txt”)

Update: I have created a simple script that enables secure delete via drag and drop with CCleaner.

Fresh in the tracks of the last version, today we get a genuine YABR: CCleaner 2.14.763.

All it does is fix minor bugs related to Firefox 2 cookie handling. (Or does it? :D)
