Piriform released a new version of the CCleaner File Cleaner software. OR 5.50 version, is reported to have new options to control program updates.
The 2018 was not very pleasant for Piriform, the CCleaner software development company, and Avast's parent company.
The integration of telemetry in the application, without informing them users but also without options for the apactivation της, μαζί με τις αναγκαστικές αυτόματες ενημερώσεις σε νέες εκδόσεις του CCleaner, ήταν δύο από τα μεγαλύτερα errorof the company for 2018.
The new version of CCleaner 5.50, however, comes with a new menu "Updates" in the program options. Provides users with control of application updates according to release notes.
So CCleaner seems to give control of updates to the end user. Piriform separates the updates into “important” ones that ensure “CCleaner runs with better safety and smooth” and in simple product updates that simply recommend the upgrade.
Product updates are defined as updates that "provide the latest product improvements and cleaning system updates."
Automatic updates will only be important updates, but they will still have to be enabled by the end user. After downloading and installing automatically, users will receive a notification that updates them on their system.
Simple product updates will only be manually applied to free users. Pro users will be able to apply updates automatically.
The choice projectionς ειδοποιήσεων για τις νέες ενημερώσεις είναι απενεργοποιημένη από προεπιλογή. Έτσι όσοι επιθυμούν να λαμβάνουν πληροφορίες θα πρέπει να ενεργοποιήσουν την mode.
Piriform seems to be trying a lot harder after the scandals that broke out. The company added more privacy options to program. It remains to be seen if all that he promises with the new version works.
Of course things would go much better if Piriform not exploited the confidence that users of the app have shown them for so long.
Will you re-trust Piriform and CCleaner?
