I myself quit using CCleaner a few years ago after all the news came out that they were hacked.

I used the Spyshelter free version (now premium as I won the license here) and it is very good as a freeware. Has a good deny/allow option & allow for signed apps, auto rule creation free HIPS.

Also used free version of Ashampoo uninstaller 2017, it was good. Cleared all traces & leftovers. Kept a log of which components change for new installation & uninstall, which registry items & keys added/altered or modified.

Also use this tool for occasional video cutting, just to cut a small part from a long video etc. Another tool I have installed is Quick video cutter but do not remember if it were from a giveaway.

I don't trust CCleaner, it's just cosmetic cleaning. I use to clean these free programs

I still use CCleaner portable, in combination with Privacy Eraser free and Bleachbit ! Privazer too, but once a month approximately.
As free launcher, my preference goes to XVA Assistant. On the screenshot below there are already some freeware i use regularly : FreeFileSync, Dukto, Revo, Sumo, Fastone Resizer, VirtualBox, Uniextract, etc.
