We recommend the users read the stance of Microsoft Corp. regarding tools like the Perfect PC Cleanup at Support.microsoft[.]com/en-us/help/2563254/microsoft-support-policy-for-the-use-of-registry-cleaning-utilities. Microsoft does not endorse the usage of instruments like the Perfect PC Cleanup since changes to the Registry can lead to unstable system performance and program crashes easily. Freeing up space on your local disks has never been easier with tools like Disk Cleanup, which is built into Windows and unlocked with your purchase of a valid Windows license key. You may notice that the Perfect PC Cleanup includes a component called 'Tracks Eraser,' which features the description "Protect your privacy by removing internet and Windows recent history." You should note that removing Internet history logs and clearing the browser cache is not enough to protect your privacy on the Web. Also, modern browser's have built-in panels for clearing private data, and you are not likely to need help from the Perfect PC Cleanup. Launch the native 'Clear private data' panel in your browser with the keyboard command Ctrl+Shift+Del.
