On May 12, 2022, after several months of development, a new version of CCleaner 6 was released with a new patented “Performance Optimization” feature that improves system speed and energy efficiency. The Software Update component has also been improved with support for 50 new popular applications.
Performance optimization
Performance Optimization is a proprietary feature that will benefit both old and new computers. It detects and stops all inactive programs by putting them to sleep. The technology allows you to prevent excessive consumption of system resources, but is smart enough to activate applications at the moment when they are needed.
The performance optimizer is something like Programs on Demand. As a result, even a slow computer with a lot of installed applications can work like a brand new device just bought. At the same time, the user does not need to remove programs, control background downloads and startup applications, as well as processes in the task manager and scheduled tasks.
A new feature in CCleaner 6 solves an old problem in the PC industry: the more software you install, the slower your PC gets. The technology is proprietary, so other products cannot copy it.
Improvements to the Software Update component
Outdated applications on a PC present potential security risks if they are not updated on time and contain vulnerabilities and bugs.
Updating apps is a chore, especially if you have to do it on a per-app basis. The Software Update tool lets you automate software update processes so you can do other useful things. The new version of CCleaner 6 supports automatic updates of 50 more popular applications.
