NOTE - You will need CCleaner Cloud Agent version 1.16 or above.

- Using the check boxes on the left, select the browsers you wish to clean on close. Click OK.
- These will now show as Pending.
- Once the browser(s) close, the clean operation will run, and an event will be shown:

To set at a Profile level:
- Go to the Profiles section.
- Click on the Agent Options tab
