I don't think there is a single benefit to CCleaner in a modern Windows 10 install.
 
Its a free product, they get paid for putting that addon installer there.

They gotta make money somehow, just pay attention when you install stuff!
 
I still use CCleaner occasionally - any negatives to using it in current times?
 
Is there a proven positive on a modern Windows 10 system? I'd like to see that data.
 
I use it everyday.. Cleans out my Firefox history but saves cookies on sites I use. I also use it to clean junk files on my OS. I wouldn't use Firefox without it.
 
Go to the builds page and download the portable version. There's no reason to install it if you don't need the context menu integration.
 
I will say this about the company, they make really good products. But they have the paid version listed as the "most popular option" or now "best value". I think that's a little disingenuous on their part.
