CCleaner 7 Launches With Redesigned Interface, Dark Mode and ARM64 Support

Reviewers highlight a slick redesign, ARM64 support, notable losses for power users.

Overview

  • Piriform released CCleaner 7 as a major update, bringing a refreshed UI with light, dark and automatic themes.
  • The app now fully supports ARM64 devices, with the developer citing better compatibility and performance on modern Windows systems.
  • A reworked uninstaller uses a new engine for more reliable removals, supports batch uninstallations and can temporarily remove apps for testing before restoring them.
  • The Disk Analyzer improves duplicate detection with image thumbnails and options to keep older or newer files, then delete permanently or send to the Recycle Bin.
  • Hands-on tests report regressions for advanced users, including no ability to disable scheduled tasks or services, changed CLI/PowerShell behavior, a shift to a web installer and no App Paths entry, alongside a design that more closely aligns with AVG/Norton tools.
