Bleachbit is the real alternative to Ccleaner, the program to be used to clean up the system on Windows PC, Linux, Mac .
With the release of Bleachbit 2.0 I take this opportunity to dedicate an article to this excellent maintenance software for the computer, very complete and in-depth, which allows you to recover considerable amount of free space, to delete the traces of use of the programs on PC to have more privacy and to clean up your computer from unnecessary files and junk that in the long run could slow down performance.
BleachBit 2.0 has an essential and minimal graphic interface and at the first start it is immediately possible to select the elements to be removed.
For example, you can delete temporary files created while browsing the internet with Chrome and Firefox or the cache and temporary files of the Windows system.
Using Bleachbit is quite simple and there are no particular contraindications for actions that can cause computer problems.
It is possible to select the various elements individually or by placing the flag on the various groups.
Before cleaning, you can press the preview button, which allows you to view the space that will be recovered by deleting all the unnecessary files detected.
Cleaning includes files and even registry keys, although in Bleachbit there is no registry cleaning tool like in Ccleaner (which is however a useless and superfluous tool to use).
In the program preferences, accessible from the top Edit menu, you can add customized positions to cleaning and exclude files or positions from deleting.
The best thing is that Bleachbit supports CCHenancer, the program to add new cleaning rules to Ccleaner.
You don't need to download CCHennacer for Bleachbit, but just activate the " download and update community cleaners (winapp.ini) " option in the Preferences.
Restarting Bleachbit you will find several more items to select, which mainly concern the applications of Windows 10 and the Windows Store.
The File menu contains additional Bleachbit tools, such as the one to overwrite files and folders, which means to destroy them and make them unrecoverable, it is then the tool to delete the free disk space to prevent the recovery of deleted files.
BleachBit, unlike Ccleaner, is an open source software available for all systems, including Linux and Mac as well as Windows.
CCleaner certainly has a more elaborate and more beautiful interface and includes additional functions such as the program uninstaller and the start menu manager which are quite comfortable.
BleachBit is more essential and is only a Cleaner program, without too many additional functions, perfect for recovering space and for erasing traces of computer use.
Personally, especially for the fact that it is open source and free non-profit, I think it is better to use Bleachbit, unless there are particular needs that only Ccleaner can satisfy.
Bleachbit Cleaner can be downloaded for free from the official website, on Windows, Mac and Linux, in a portable version or to be installed, in Italian.
