CCleaner Browser is a Desktop web browser that runs on Windows. It is developed by Gen Digital Inc. It has been developed for about 7 years since launching in 2019.

There is some debate about whether it is considered a "Potentially Unwanted Program"; some people believe that it is not necessary to install. Read the links at the end of this article to see some discussion on it.

Neither the release dates or latest version numbers of CCleaner Browser are displayed on the download page, this makes it very hard to determine the last time it was updated. The longer a web browser goes without receiving updates, typically the less secure it is.
