Detect and Remove CCleaner in Powershell

This is a neat little trick to detect CCleaner on a Windows operating system with powershell, then silently uninstall it using powershell.

Code Below:

------------------------------------------Copy----------------------------------------------------

Get-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* |
Where-Object DisplayName -eq CCleaner

----------------------------------------COPY----------------------------------------------

if (Get-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* |
Where-Object DisplayName -eq CCleaner -OutVariable Results) {
& "$($Results.InstallLocation)\uninst.exe" /S
}

--------------------------------------Copy-----------------------------------------
