FeaturesĬCleaner offers a number of features that will help keep your Mac clean and optimized. For the purposes of this review, I tested the app on OS X 10.6.8 and OS X 10.7.2. Installing CCleaner is quick and easy System RequirementsĬCleaner for Mac will run on any Mac with OS X 10.5 or higher. CCleaner is not available from the Mac App Store, since it needs more access to the Mac’s file system than a sandboxed Mac App Store app is allowed. This makes installation quick and easy, in keeping with the tradition of app installation on the Mac. The app uses the typical install process of dragging the icon to an alias of the Applications folder. The utility also includes features to repair the permissions on your filesystem, wipe free space and clean Chrome’s omnibox. The final release for Mac offers cookie management, allowing you to choose to keep all of your cookies, some cookies for persistent logins, or (by default) clear all of your cookies.

The app adds cleaning capabilities for Safari, Google Chrome, Opera and Firefox. CCleaner for Mac has been in beta for a while, but the final version of the utility was released on January 30. One of my favorite utilities for cleaning up the Windows PCs my clients bring to me, Piriform’s CCleaner, has come to the Mac.
