It clears the CRAP out of the temporary folders. If you're infected with something, it'll leave CRAP in the TEMPORARY FOLDERS, which is why you should run it as part of a malware removal process.

No argument there. My argument is solely that clearing cache speeds up your PC.

Ccleaner does work IMO, clearing cache and temp files are beneficial for two reasons....
First off the more crap your computer and applications have to sort through the more time that can take....
Also another not uncommon area is some cache files can become corrupt like any other file, so an application referencing a corrupt cache file can cause some serious slow downs and application stability problems.
Either way a good System File Cleanup, removal of unnecessary application, stop application from boot and doing some infection removal would find this beneficial.
On a side note did no one catch this comment...
No one find the question odd or out of place for the topic?

Please help me as the light on the mute button in the keyboard has disappeared

That probably means it's not muted. Usually it lights up to show that the function of that light (in this case, muting the audio) is enabled.

Just clean your laptop inside and out and reformat it and it will work good again.

CCleaner has a free version. And the next best thing is to reinstall Windows.

And it's not something you need to run all the time. Once every month or two at most is more than enough. All it's doing is clearing your cache, it's not actually speeding up your computer in any meaningful way.
I recommend running it every couple weeks if you are browsing the web a lot. I only visit less than 10 websites so it doesn't really pay me to run it more than once every few months. But if you are running on a regular HDD and visiting many websites, it really does help running Ccleaner once every couple weeks.

Where did you get CCleaner from..? If you got it from Piriform, you must have seen the free download button...so if you got it from elsewhere... it could be a dodgy version which may have installed other stuff you don't need. John would know more though, as that is more his area than mine.
Ccleaner, defraggler, etc will only help to a certain extent. It is probably quicker to reformat and reinstall your OS.
