Home Computer Audio Asylum

Music servers and other computer based digital audio technologies.

My point is....

I don't really find it necessary on my Macs. I did find it useful on my Windows PCs.

Using your example from above:

- Freeing up 220MB (or a few GB) from my 1TB SSD isn't a big deal to me.

- A few log files are not worth deleting. In fact, log files are handy IF there's ever a need for troubleshooting.

- My Trash is scheduled to empty itself automatically.

- I clear Cookies and Web cache in my browser when I feel the need. BUT they can also be set to automatically clear themselves.

- RE: "Some files require administrator rights to remove"

In the rare case that I need to dig deep to remove something I HAVE administrator rights via sudo in the terminal window command line.

Sure, CCleaner is a useful tool for some folks and highly recommended but not needed here.
