In what way is it better than CCleaner?

Presumably it doesn't have malware, so that's a start.

It's funny you should say that because when I saw PC Manager required it to be downloaded from a Chinese website, I thought it might have malware. I've used CCleaner for years without an issue.

well Microsoft is yet to 'officially' announce or release it. Once they actually do that they'll fix the websites. this seems to be an unfinished product, still in beta considering the English and stuff.

Version 5.33 had malware (a trojan) injected by unknown actors. And then in 2019 there were more attempts to insert malware that were foiled by Avast.

And yeah I wouldn't be surprised if a leaked program made available on sketchy sites were compromised.
