CCleaner is a software able to analyse your system in order to clean it but also to optimize it.

1. Download and install CCleaner for Windows from the following link.
2. In CCleaner, click the Cleaner icon on the left.

Once the scan is complete, you can check which files will be deleted in the text window.
