[Unused file extention]

 

I have asked the same question. I still don't know the answer. CCleaner shows file extensions as unused for programs I use every day. My advice is, don't allow CCleaner to remove them. It WILL remove your file associations. On my XP system, all the listed file associations were removed. If I opt to choose a program from the list, the Folder Options applet is opened and, since the association has been removed, I have to browse the system trying to find the application I want. A pretty tedious process just to open a file. Then, in my case, the file may or may not open. I had to manually re-associate all the file extensions but I still can't get my icons back.

Wow. I'd say thats a HUGE bug. The weird thing though is that some of these files DONT have an assosiation.

More than likely the associations will be removed. So when you double click one of those files, you'll be prompted to choose a program to open the file with. Unless there isn't a program associated already. Then there wont be an impact. Either way the files themselves wont be altered.

 

Some programs will re-assciate a file type when launched. If you clean these items just make a backup of the the registry items when prompted.

Ok. I understand. But why does it consider the assosiations unused?

[Removal of Recycle bin in portable version]

I think the button to add CCleaner to the recycle bin should be removed from the portable version of CCleaner. If it is checked off, and the flashdrive is unplugged, the user will be unable to remove the selection from the lst, and it will not work if clicked on.

There are some files listed as unused that I still have programs that use them. (Ex, I have 7 Zip, it notices .7z files, I have Project 64, it notices N64 and Z64 files, It notices sff files, I need those for MUGEN.) So before I get rid of these entries, I would like to know how this will affect my ussage of these files.

[Mark / Unmark all]

Hello everybody!

 

This program is quite handy but I am missing two Buttons: 'Mark all files' and 'Unmark all files'. It is a bit annoying if you selected for example two files in your 35000+ files found list and when you scroll and want to recover another file the first two are still selected and unnecessarily recovered again.

 

Hope you will add this to further versions!

 

Besides great work!
