With my (old) version, the display of filenames being erased starts immediately at a very swift pace. With the recent version, the display of Internet Explorer's Temporary Internet Files begins almost immediately, but progressing at a rate at about one per second. This clearly does not look normal. I do not have many more temporary files than usual.

After I upgraded from 5.22.5724 in September 2016 to a version released a few days or weeks later, CCleaner ran so slowly on my Windows 8.1 computer that I gave up after a few minutes and reinstalled 5.22.5724. I have been using this version ever since, until I decided today to try 5.36.6278. The problem I had experienced by upgrading in 2016 reappeared. I thus reinstalled 5.22.5724, which works flawlessly. I have seen reports at the time that a version following 5.22.5724 had such a problem, but I thought that it had been solved by now. Apparently not, at least on my system.

Curiously, there is no such cookie in the Cookies directory, so I cannot delete it. And as far as I can tell, I had closed open instances of IE before running CCleaner.

However hard I try to have CCleaner to delete all the cookies listed in the "Cookies to Delete" column of the Options | Cookies page, CCleaner (v. 2.35.1223) refuses to delete a cookie for "google.it". When I go to Cleaner | Applications, I can confirm that cookies are checked for all applications listed (Firefox/Mozilla, Opera, Safari, Google Chrome), and my cookies for IE8 are also deleted as reported under "CLEANING COMPLETE". Some time ago, I had a similar problem, and finally noticed that one of the applications did not have its cookies option checked, but this is not the case this time. Is there a problem with the latest version of CCleaner?

Yes, the box is checked.

The latest version of CCleaner (like the previous one) leaves one single cookie in the "Cookies to Delete" list after it has run. On one computer, it was "amazon.fr", on another one "amazon.ca". These recent versions are the first two that fail to delete everything. Do Amazon's cookies have special characteristics that make them immune to CCleaner?

In the Cleaner page, what currently appears as black text over white background was black text over my user-defined green background. In the Registry page, everything was black text on my user-defined green background. And yes, this is the first version in which this appears as described.

I have just installed version 2.13.720 and have noted that the left column of the Cleaner and Registry panels no longer display as they used to. I am using a user-defined colour for my screen background (some kind of green). I am attaching screenshots that show the white on user colour (Cleaner) and the boxes around the white colour (Registry).

My setting for "Window Text" is not Window's default white but 185, 200, 185, a sort of light green. The new version, curiously, does not set a specific colour for all elements of the screen, which means that, under "Cleaner", the left pane (with all the check boxes) appear in this colour rather than as intended (and probably expected) by the programmers. The same goes for "Registry", where the background is white, but the list under "Registry Integrity" uses my own colour. The push buttons also use my colour, etc. It seems to me that the program should set all these elements to a specific colour to let me see the program the way it has been designed to display rather than in a way that will vary from user to user. This reminds me of some Web page that do not set the background colour, which means that the text colour may no longer contrast enough with the user's background colour; this can often make the text very difficult to read, as the Web site no longer displays as intended. This being said, I was very satisfied with the way the program looked before version 2. Why change it?
