deb00t Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 There's a directory, where QuickTime player stores the remote movies which have been played. In the application cleaner settings, there's a Multimedia>QuickTime section, which I always had checked, but this option obviously doesn't include the directory I'm about to mention (or QT itself has changed the location in time). The path on my computer is: c:\Users\{username}\AppData\LocalLow\Apple Computer\QuickTime\downloads\ The operating system is Vista 32b, QT is 7.6.5 I've stumbled upon this a while ago, and always forgot to post this for you So now I'm doing it. Once, I've gained GIGS of space when I've deleted those temp files, so I thought it might be worthy to include in CCleaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deb00t Posted March 24, 2010 Author Share Posted March 24, 2010 [Quicktime Player Cache]ID=2036 LangSecRef=3023 Detect=HKLM\Software\Apple Computer, Inc.\QuickTime Default=True FileKey1=%localappdata%\Apple Computer\QuickTime\downloads|*.*|RECURSE[/code] Well it might be, but I just ran the latest CCleaner with the Quicktime Player Cache cleanup checked, it didn't delete those files. The problem might be that they are (as I noted in the initial post) in the LocalLow AppData directory, not Local. I'm not really sure what the difference is between those two dirs, but the point is, the current CCleaner doesn't clean those QT tempfiles.

Moderators DennisD Posted March 24, 2010 Moderators Share Posted March 24, 2010 Hi deb00t, and welcome to Piriform. It cleans those files OK in XP, but you're talking about Vista I'm guessing with the "LocalLow" mention. I don't have Vista to confirm, but the devs do read these posts and I'm sure they'll take note of your observations. Maybe for now you could clean those locations with CCleaners "Include" feature. http://docs.piriform.com/ccleaner/using-cc...rs-for-cleaning Hope that helps.

ident Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 c:\Users\{username}\AppData\LocalLow\Apple Computer\QuickTime\downloads\ My personally belief is ccleaner should be more documented on individual directors. There could be a million different locations ccleaner could clean. This would just add to time and performance. No fate but what we make Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted March 25, 2010 Moderators Share Posted March 25, 2010 sadly there is no universal local low variable (seems pretty dumb to me to have one for local and one for roaming but not for low) so for vista and 7 users i present a stop gap until piriform enables it. Please place this into you winapp2.ini REMOVED and replaced below Code is tested and Verified working EDIT: Piriform has now provided us with a locallow variable.

Aethec Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 LocalLow is for apps with a low integrity level. For example, IE creates its tabs (but not the main IE process) in a low integrity level - same for ActiveX controls. So if you use QuickTime in IE, it will save its cache in the LocalLow folder (A low integrity level means the process will only be able to interact with other low integrity files and processes) Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted June 21, 2010 Moderators Share Posted June 21, 2010 Now that Piriform has provided us with the needed variable for the Local Low directory I will provide a new version of Quicktime for Vista/Win7 (and one that'll only show cache if you have Vista/Win7) [*Quicktime Player for vista and 7 users] ID=2035 LangSecRef=3023 Detectfile=%locallowappdata%\Apple Computer\quicktime Default=True FileKey1=%localappdata%\Apple Computer\QuickTime|QTPlayerSession.xml Winapp2.ini tested and confirmed EDIT: fixed due to CCleaner 2.33. see below EDIT2: removed redundant items.

Moderators Nergal Posted June 24, 2010 Moderators Share Posted June 24, 2010 With the release of 2.33 the Quicktime cache is now properly cleaned in windows 7 and vista. However QTPlayerSession.xml file is still not identified correctly and thus I have edited the above post to remove cache but to keep the proper QTPlayerSession.xml clean-up for vista/win7 ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
