CCleaner/Spybot the best combo still...?

[SideWinder]

Sooo i am quite out of the loop for Windows maintenance/cleaning/keeping things lovely and pretty. Are these two still the 'go to' software?

I use Avast also.

Thanks and be gentle!

It's been a long time since I used Windows seriously but you couldn't have paid me to use stuff like ccleaner.

I said be gentle

Id personally avoic CC Cleaner at all costs: https://www.zdnet.com/article/avast...-ccleaner-following-second-hack-in-two-years/

It's been compromised enough that you cant trust it anymore imo.

Ah. And it is now gone.

@UnworthyBean - Will give your suggestion a go!
