I have barely 1 million on this machine across over 2.5TB

How the heck did you manage to get 100+ million files??
Probably 100m could be deleted.

Did you run/clean with the latest version of ccleaner beforehand? kahawai chaser (3545)

Yes, and Windows gives you a pat on the back if you do a good job of it. When the number of events gets high (over 100,000 currently for me) Windows rewards you with an exclamation mark
