Software developer Piriform has released CCleaner 7, the latest version of its popular Windows tune-up tool. The update not only brings a fresh design, but also several practical improvements designed to simplify operation and system maintenance.
A modern design with dark mode
CCleaner’s user interface has been completely redesigned and now looks much tidier and more responsive. Users can now choose between a light, dark, or automatic theme depending on their personal preferences and/or Windows settings.
According to Piriform, CCleaner 7 improves compatibility with newer PCs. The tool now fully supports Arm64 devices, which should ensure noticeably better performance on newer Windows systems.
A better approach to uninstalling apps
CCleaner’s uninstaller feature now uses a new engine that removes apps more reliably than the built-in Windows uninstaller. Multiple apps can be uninstalled in one go without repeatedly clicking on confirmations. Orphaned files and remnants are also deleted automatically.
An interesting bonus is that CCleaner 7 now lets users temporarily remove applications to troubleshoot issues or test system performance and stability, then restore those apps later if required.
A revised Disk Analyser feature
The integrated Disk Analyser now helps to better detect duplicate files on a drive. It displays thumbnails of images and allows you to decide which version (older or newer) should be kept. Files can either be moved to the Recycle Bin or permanently deleted.
CCleaner 7 is a big step forward
With this new version, Piriform has noticeably modernized the classic PC cleaning tool. The combination of a new look, improved system compatibility, and extended cleaning features should appeal to users who value clarity and automation.
