I use the standalone and portable version of Wise Disk Cleaner. It is far superior than what CCleaner (free) is capable of cleaning, and I don't need all the functionality of Wise Care 365 or the Pro version. I use Geek Uninstaller for uninstalling software and apps.

@carsten ibsen For Wise Care 365 Pro;
  1. What are some things you do not like about it?
  2. What do you think can be improved?
  3. And do you recommend the Free or Pro version?

I like its speed and liability,I know it has a registry cleaner but it has never created any problems for me,I think it does a much better job than Ccleaner Pro,I have not tried the free version.:)

I used the System Optimizer settings (all but one) and found them conservative (all but one).

I use reg cleaner at "deep scan" without issues.

I use Common Cleaner with only Windows WinSxs Backup and Windows Update unchecked and a handful of browser cookies exceptions.

I don't use System Slimming.

The others I use in part occasionally.

Overall, I'd be happy with just the free portable reg cleaner and disk cleaner tools.

Wisecare is a Nice product to have and does a fair job of solving the stuff you throw at it. The only thing that I personally not use is the registry cleaner. And imho , the disk defrag module is not good as well , I use o&o defrag pro for this, because it defrags more indepth and has better algorhythemns to detect fragments...

I love it an I am using it from some years ago

Quick, safe and reliable soft and it has a very interesting utility (slim system) that removes all the remains of windows updates, etc.

Speed isn't everything, Windows Disk Clean-up does have it's own advantages over Wise Disk Cleaner and other cleaners. I expect Disk Clean-up to be moved to the new Settings page eventually.

On the More Options tab, users can find old programs to uninstall and delete System Restore points and Shadow Copies.

We were mentioning about System Slimming feature of WDC.

Exactly, Wise Disk Cleaner doesn't show all the items shown by Windows Disk Clean-up.
in my case the few ones not showing up are often empty. To me the most relevant ones are the Windows Updates files; Diskcleanup takes ages to remove them.

Diskcleanup takes ages to remove them.
I've been noticing lately a lot of people have been asking "Why is disk cleanup taking so long???". Some people seen to think Windows just deletes them right away or marks the file for deletion, but there is a little more involved than that, especially for kernel changes such as the updates on Patch Tuesday. Files in use must be flagged, replaced, copied, moved delayed to a temp file, written, and renamed. I'm sure many have seen this term: PendingFileRenameOperations. This must happens to all "in use" files be it drivers, windows defender, and Windows Updates it takes time to do.
Answer: Why it can take Disk Cleanup so long
