    I believe I did, I have tried several disk/junk file cleaners - some are worse than CCleaner while others are better. I’m not going to derail this thread which is about Macrium & not what my junk/file cleaner preferences are. I combined Junk files & history cleaner as disk cleanup. My comments...
  2. Final things to do prior to first Macrium Image

    It does seem to clean as much as Revo’s disk cleanup. I’ve also read the same from other users - that other software does a better job.

  10. Need some help with my email acc

  12. Solved How to delete windows.old folder ?

    True but can also be done with other backup software’s boot media. The cmd will still work. In my case Disk cleanup hasn’t removed the Windows.old folder on occasion so I use this if it doesn’t work.
