Hopefully that won't change when CCleaner Portable v6.1 is released next month.ĭell Inspiron 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v21H2 build 19044.1706 * Firefox v100.0.0 * Microsoft Defender v.5-0.5 * Malwarebytes Premium v4.5.9.198- * Macrium Reflect Free v * CCleaner Free Portable v I have a 64-bit OS and use the default English interface, and when I unzip the Portable ccsetupxxx.zip file on a removable USB thumb drive there are only three essential files I need to keep - CCleaner64.exe and portable.dat plus my "old" ccleaner.ini file (which stores the custom configuration settings I made in my previous CCleaner Portable versions). According to nukecad's 1 post in CCleaner Portable Not Available the programming changes in v6.0 caused " a few issues" and a Portable version of CCleaner v6.x likely won't be posted on the official builds page until v6.1 is released next month. I still like the Custom Clean function of CCleaner for disk cleaning and use the Portable (zipped) version to avoid having to install all the unnecessary bloat on my system, but if you try to download CCleaner Portable from the builds page at you are currently offered the previous ccsetup592.zip file. Recall that NortonLifeLock acquired Avira in 2020 and then acquired Avast (including its subsidiary Piriform, the original creators of CCleaner) in 2021, so I expect we'll see more of these "system optimizers" and other bloatware developed by Avira and Avast continue to creep into both CCleaner and NortonLifeLock products in the future.
