SMalik Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I get a window that "Adblock Plus has been installed" every time I open Chrome after running CCleaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted November 16, 2014 Moderators Share Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) Adblock Plus for Chrome has issues that being one of them and losing all settings is another! Allot of people have reported it doing what you've posted, and it happened to me and in my case it was not caused by CCleaner in my testing. I'd recommend If you want to use an adblocking software in any Chrome-based browser you should look into Adblock - just realize that sometimes when it has an update it may require uninstalling the old version and installing the new version, i.e.; clean install to avoid issues.

Winapp2.ini Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Winapp2.ini actually causes this behavior with one of the Chrome entries, though I forget which, so if you have any Chrome entries suffixed with astrisks * then try disabling them. I think it's the Logs* one. winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMalik Posted November 16, 2014 Author Share Posted November 16, 2014 It's not Winapp2.ini, it is CCleaner's Google Chrome Internet Cache entry that is deleting "chrome-extension_cfhdojbkjhnklbpkdaibdccddilifddb_0.localstorage-journal" file from C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Local Storage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winapp2.ini Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 OT: Oh, I think there's an overlap in Winapp2.ini's cleaning routines then, because there's a Local Storage* entry that also deletes these files. On topic: Add that folder to your exclude paths for the time being and you shouldn't see this behavior anymore. FWIW I think I recall reading that Google doesn't like Chrome Apps/Extensions putting settings in that folder. winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollersa Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I have the same problem, all my custom filters in AdBlock Plus are removed after using CCleaner + CCenhancer What do I have to do exactly now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted January 5, 2015 Moderators Share Posted January 5, 2015 @hollersa, have you tried running CC without the enhancer, does it still remove your custom filters? Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

CCenhancer isn't supported on these forums being that Piriform deem it an unofficial add-on. You could remove CCenhancer and see if the problems continue, or as mentioned previously in the topic input an Exclude into CCleaner in 'Options->Exclude' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dvdbane Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 all it does is download the same winapp2.ini from it's own server and combine with custom entry (need user input) so i guess we can answer the same way for people who use winapp2.ini right?? plus it support trimming(beta) which is a good inclusion removing ccenhancer only will not delete winapp2.ini inside ccleaner folder so by suggesting to run ccleaner without the enhancer will not solve the problem to @Hollersa open ccenhancer > Functions > Delete custom rules by doing this, you will remove winapp2.ini file from ccleaner folder run again ccleaner to confirm whether the problem solve or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted January 6, 2015 Moderators Share Posted January 6, 2015 Only thing though dvdbane we were instructed to not offer any support for it. So don't get upset if another mod or an admin removes your post - I'll personally leave it alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
