CCleaner for Mac - What is the Point?

CCleaner won't clean my mac

What settings are you using on CCleaner? Other posters have suggested - 'CCleaner for mac is working fine for me. Be sure that your selection for secure deletion is 'normal' and not 'secure'. Sierra no longer allows secure deletion since Apple now uses SSD drives in most of their machines and those drives do not support secure erase.' That really reduces the value of CCleaner in my opinion, but it looks like we're stuck with it.CCleaner for Mac - What is the Point?

There have been a number of posts suggesting that CCleaner does not work with OS Sierra, and one poster has stated - 'CCleaner for mac is working fine for me. Be sure that your selection for secure deletion is 'normal' and not 'secure'. Sierra no longer allows secure deletion since Apple now uses SSD drives in most of their machines and those drives do not support secure erase.' But surely the point of CCleaner is to provide deletion that is more thorough than normal deletion, by doing multiple over-writes? Is there therefor any advantage in using Cleaner?

Interesting. But as CCleaner is specifically designed to carry out secure cleaning (with multiple over-writes), is there any point in using it? Is it no more secure than say, deleting Internet history from within the browser, or emptying the Trash within that function? Thanks.
CCleaner can clean unneeded files and settings for Web browsers and many installed applications on your system, as well as OS X features.
Note: You should be logged into an administrator account to use CCleaner. You can still use it as a normal or restricted user, but OS X may prevent you from deleting certain files.
