  1. Thanks nukecad for your reply.

    As far as I know, I do not have Chrome Synced, and I have never heard of or used any of the first 3 sites.

    I have downloaded and run both ADWCleaner and Malwarbytes, and neither of them found anything.

    Out of interest, I reinstalled and ran the previous version of CCleaner Free v5.85.9170 and this did not find any of the 8 Google Chrome Cookies.

     

  2. I have just updated my CCleaner Free to version 5.86.9258

    Now when I run Custom Clean it does not remove the following 8 Google Chrome Cookies:-

    Cookie: ancensored.co
    Cookie: ancensored.com
    Cookie: rutracker.or
    Cookie: rutracker.org
    Cookie: www.mediafire.co
    Cookie: www.mediafire.com
    Cookie: www.three.co.u
    Cookie: www.three.co.uk

    No matter how many times I run Custom Clean these 8 Google Chrome Cookies are not removed.

    Any help would be appreciated.

  3. Hi nukecad,

    Checked that my McAfee LiveSafe is up to date using the method in the link you provided and every module of McAfee LiveSafe is up to date.

    I also made CCleaner an exception in the AV and again this made no difference to the loading speed.

    You say that rolling back to an earlier version of CCleaner may not help but I could try this to see if it does help in my case.

    You may be correct in saying that it could be something to do with a Windows Update, because the following two Windows Updates were installed after updating CCleaner Free to v5.74.8198 (64-bit):-

    2020-11 Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems (KB4586781)
    Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool x64 - v5.84 (KB890830)

    Unfortunately, I do not understand the comments by Andavari about winapp2.ini as I do not know what it is or what it does.

     

  4. Hi nukecad,

    Disconnected from wifi/internet and this made no difference.

    For information, the first time I run CCleaner after a reboot the loading is extremely slow, subsequent loadings are faster but not as fast as previous versions.

    I am running Windows 10 Version 20H2 for x64-based Systems, fully up to date with Windows Update.

    For internet security I am running McAfee LiveSafe.

     

  5. Hi nukecad,

    Thanks for your reply and the link, which I found very interesting.

    I very rarely log in to my google account and I don't think I have any kind of google content pre-loading.

    The tiles on my start menu that are 'Live' are:-
    Calendar
    Weather
    Photos
    Microsoft Edge
    WiFi Analyzer
    Speedtest
    Skype
    Groove Music
    Microsoft Store
    OneNote for Windows 10
    Microsoft News
    Money
    Film & TV
    Facebook
    Solitaire
    HP Touchpoint Manager
    Mail

    Can I just transfer the 4 Google Chrome Cookies  listed to 'Cookies to Keep' in 'Options' > 'Cookies' or will this cause any problems?

     

  6. If I run Custom Clean a number of times, one after another, the Advanced Report still shows:-

    Google Chrome - Cookies     0KB     4 files

    The log shows:-

    Cleaning Complete - (5.382 secs)
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    0 bytes removed.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Any Comments would be appreciated.

     

  7. Since the recent Feature update to Windows 10, version 1809, I have encountered the following issue when running the CCleaner Registry Cleaner:-

    Problem:           Application Paths Issue
    Data:                  C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\ki126109.inf_amd64_db6a2d083f3ea368\igfxEM.exe
    Registry Key:    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Compatibility Assistant\Store

    After fixing the issue, unfortunately the same issue reappears after a reboot.

    Any help would be appreciated'

     

  8. Since the Anniversary Update To Windows 10 Home Version 1607 (OS Build 14393.10) (KB3176929) has been applied, every time I run CCleaner v5.20.5668 (64-bit), I get the following message box appear:-

     

    Microsoft Edge Cache Database and Internet Explorer needs to be closed to clean the Internet Cache.

     

    Do you want CCleaner to close Microsoft Edge Cache Database and Internet Explorer?

     

    There is a box to tick - Do not show me this message again.

     

     

    As I use Google Chrome and not Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer why does this message box appear?

     

     

    I have read the article in FAQ relating to this issue:-

     

    CCleaner isn’t able to clean files that are open in any program during the cleaning process. The databases that Edge uses to store data are also used by other programs on your computer to store their own information – these are normally system programs that use Edge’s functionality in order to access the internet. Therefore, if any of these are open and accessing Edge’s database whilst the clean is in progress, CCleaner will need to close the database in order for it to perform the clean. This is why the prompt will appear despite Edge being closed – a different program is accessing the Edge database.

     

     

    How can I find out which programs are accessing the Edge database?

     

    Also, what happens if I tick the box - Do not show me this message again, and then click YES to close the Microsoft Edge Cache Database and Internet Explorer?

     

    Any help and advice would be appreciated.

     

  9. Having the same problem with CCleaner 4.07.4369 (running under Windows XP Home SP3) not deleting chrome cookie macromedia.com even though both Internet Explorer and Google Chrome have Cookies ticked.

     

    For information, if I revert back to CCleaner 4.04.4197 then the chrome cookie macromedia.com is cleared.

     

    Look forward to this being resolved in future versions.

  10. Hi MrT

     

    For information, if I revert back to CCleaner 4.04.4197 then the chrome cookie macromedia.com is cleared.

     

    I note this is the last version before NVIDIA cleaning was introduced which may or may not be a coincidence.

     

    Look forward to this being resolved in future versions.

  11. When I click the cookie in CCleaner's cookies to remove/keep screen, the picture that is shown at the bottom of the screen is a Google Chrome symbol and a Flash symbol followed by macromedia.com

     

    Cookies are checked in both the Windows tab under the Internet Explorer heading and the Applications tab under the Google Chrome heading.

  12. Having the same problem with CCleaner 4.06.4324 (running under Windows XP Home SP3) not deleting cookie macromedia.com even though both Internet Explorer and Google Chrome have Cookies ticked.

     

    Any help to solve this problem would be appreciated.

  13. Is CCleaner supposed to delete temporary files from the directories:-

     

    C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Temp

    C:\WINDOWS\Temp

     

    I have [Temporary Files] ticked under [system] but files are not deleted from the above directories.

     

    I am running CCleaner version 2.32.1165 with Windows XP SP3
