I like CCleaner but find that it wipes out any file starting with "~". I understand the reason for this, since I guess the "~" is an indicator that the file is a temporary one, but I have many files of my own that start with "~" that I don't want deleted (luckily I discovered this in time, and could easily restore these from an incremental backup).
So, which option is it that allows/disallows these files to be deleted? I'd like CCleaner to remove temporary files, but want to avoid deletion of those beginning with "~".
I note that I can also specifiy folders to exclude from processing, but I'm not sure whether that is recursive... i.e. can I specify a top-level folder and all subfolders below will be excluded too?
Thanks,
Mike
