APMichael Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Hello! It would be great if CCleaner also deletes the unnecessary ZIP files in the update folder of Spybot. After the update process they are not needed anymore. (Version 1.6.2, "C:\Program Files (x86)\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Updates") And all the unnecessary backups of the windows hosts file. Every time you immunize your system Spybot adds a new backup file. I think keeping the latest one is enough. ("C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc", "hosts.yyyymmdd-nnnnnn.backup") Thank you and kind regards, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodles Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Tested the first suggestion, worked fine and didn't get any problems with SpyBot (didn't have to download those again etc). In the meantime this could be added to Winapp2.ini-file. [spybot Search & Destroy Updates] LangSecRef=3024 DetectFile=%ProgramFiles%\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Updates Default=False FileKey1=%ProgramFiles%\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Updates|*.zip For hosts backups: [spybot Hosts Backups*] LangSecRef=3024 DetectFile=%ProgramFiles%\Spybot - Search & Destroy Default=False FileKey1=%WinDir%\System32\drivers\etc|hosts.*.backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
