This can also occur if your hard drive is misreporting itself to the computer. If this happens, CCleaner identifies the drive as a solid-state drive (for safety reasons).
Sometimes CCleaner can't work out whether a drive is a solid-state drive or a conventional hard drive. Why is my hard drive shown as a solid-state drive? Because of this, solid-state drives include functionality to spread the 'writes' across the hard drive, stopping secure overwrite procedures from repeatedly writing over the same portion of your hard drive. The number of times you 'write' data on a portion of a solid-state drive helps determine its lifespan. You can find out more in our article on Defraggler and SSDs. Note: We also don't recommend defragmenting SSDs due to the same lifespan concerns. Options > Settings > Secure Deletion and Wipe Free Space drivesīecause of the potential impact on an SSD's lifespan, we limit the Drive Wiper tool to using a “1-pass” wipe on drives that CCleaner identifies as solid-state drives.
