Winapp2.ini

A bit of sanity admist the chaos these events bring is always refreshing

via reddit: I fixed some of the formatting from reddit to here (and removed some profanity), but it's a bit of a mess and in like six quote boxes for some reason!

Good on them, sourceforge has been spinning down the drain for a while, and their recent movements have made me respect them all the less

That warningref calls the Menu Order Cache warning. Guess it just references built in warnings (kind of like a special detect)

Yeah but can we run them without UAC enabled yet? >_>

Here's the link you are looking for http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/builds

I don't think anyone you'll hear from on the forum is qualified to give you legal advice in this regard. To answer the technical question of whether or not CCleaner can pose a risk, the answer is yes. Anything that can modify the registry can break it, if used incorrectly. CCleaner is much "safer" than most other registry cleaners in this regard, but it has been known to bork a system every once-in-a-while (though this is most often the result of overzealous cleaning)

They indicate that an entry is part of winapp2.ini and not built into ccleaner

I reserved mine today I'll probably throw it on my laptop shortly after release, but i'll wait for the first few waves of bugfixes to put it on my desktop

I don't experience this behavior on Windows 8.1 Pro x64 and Earlybird (latest), CC v5.06+winapp2.ini

many third party chrome builds are not detected by ccleaner until the developers add in support for it, there's a few extra flavors of chrome in winapp2.ini already, there's room for more

1,620 I installed them all for the purpose of improving the installers entry

I'm working on an improvement for Steam Installers, but the nature of the installers makes it very time consuming http://i.imgur.com/1qx8gFz.png

Ahh. I was a tad confused as there were at least 4 different posts about the Distiller entries

Windows 8.1 x64 Pro here, installed without issues over ethernet, didn't attempt to use Wi-Fi, but I'm going to assume that it's an anti-virus blocking the Google Chrome offer

updated

seems like it just enables some sort of dialog telling you that there are updates available for the computer. Truth be told, I had forgotten XP used to do that.

Those are very few out of very many I have installed, and of those 5 games, 4 are published and developed by the same firm, so maybe it's just an issue with their installers or some such.

Noticed that, it offered to remove a few things which are not malicious: to name a few. Not sure what their problem with Wastelands Interactive (a game publisher/developer) is.

I've given up on spellchecking on this forum

Did you download CCleaner from ccleaner.com? Additionally, you're not running a Windows RT version are you?

I haven't played with it yet (just finished my finals for the year), but I'm sure they're findable.

I think the idea is that the hives act as a database, and much like sqlite databases can be "vacuumed" to remove dead space and make them smaller, I suspect this is what is attempted on the registry hives. Coming purely from speculation though.
