    Well if you happen to add CCEnhancer it adds some volatile entries that can cause problems but you should see warnings:

    However a standard installation with default settings shouldn't hurt anything.

    Also if using the free version install only the Slim Build:

    I've always been prompted by CCleaner [formerly called Crap Cleaner] to create a backup when using the Registry part, saves a file in the Documents Folder that starts with cc on the name.

    How's the comparison between the two? Is one better than the other?
