Download of the Week: CCEnhancer
The list of supported applications is fairly limited, though, and extending it requires manually setting up custom rules. CCEnhancer is a small companion utility that greatly improves CCleaner by adding some 270 new programs in one fell swoop. The software makes use of the custom rules capabilities to add new third-party apps to the list, with most rules sourced from the Piriform Support Forum, and a few others from several other places around the web.
After downloading and running CCEnhancer (no install required), a click on 'Download Latest' in the main program window downloads the latest definition files and adds them to CCleaner. On next startup CCleaner will display the additional programs under Applications -- though only those that are installed will show up on the list, of course.
Users must have .NET 3.5 installed to use this program. Additionally, Windows Vista and 7 users must run CCEnhancer with admin privileges (right click -> Run as Administrator), otherwise the program just freezes while updating the rules.

It only adds supported programs you have installed to the list so it's not clutted with "hundreds" of extra entries. And the new ones have red text.

Recommended and now Updated.
Edit: Just used the upgrade on a immoveable fragment as I posted here which I successfully navigated to and manipulated the offending file off my main drive.
