Pros
1. Enhanced privacy: CCleaner Browser includes built-in tools such as Anti-Fingerprinting and Ad Blocker to protect your online anonymity and reduce the chances of tracking by websites and advertisers.
2. Improved security: The browser offers a Security & Privacy Center to easily manage security settings and an extension guard to prevent unauthorized extensions from compromising your system.
3. Faster browsing experience: It optimizes performance by blocking intrusive ads and unwanted content, resulting in quicker page loads and a smoother navigation experience.
Cons
1. **Limited Extension Support**: CCleaner Browser may not support as many extensions as other popular browsers like Chrome or Firefox, potentially limiting functionality and customizability for users who rely on specific browser add-ons.
2. **Privacy Concerns**: CCleaner Browser's parent company, Piriform, was acquired by Avast, which has faced criticism for selling user data collected from their products; this association raises concerns about privacy and data handling practices within the browser.
3. **Potential Redundancy**: Users who already have systems in place for cleaning and optimizing their PC might find the cleaning features of the CCleaner Browser redundant, thus offering no significant advantage over other browsers that focus solely on web browsing efficiency.
