Are you sure they are firefox and not, maybe flash? If you highlight it what icon is shown at the bottom of ccleaner? Also it could be that Firefox is not always completely exited after closing (this can happen if an add-on or feature such as sync is still running) check Windows Task Manager (processes on >W8 or details on W8 and W10) for any firefox or addon container.

Does windows recognize it? What windows version? Please also give the version number of defraggler. Is it a HDD of SSD? Edit (more questions) How is the drive attached (internal, usb (USB1,USB2 or USB3 version of the computer's port) FireWire. What format is the drive (NTFS, ExFAT, other) Can you give a little more detail on "doesn't recognize"

Yup newer version its the same AFAIK

Basically differencebetween will answer pretty much any logical comparison (strangely there is a .net and a .com but they seem to be different companies...wierd)

A browser is an application that resides on your personal machine and is able to interpret the programing languages that make up the entirety of the world wide web (such as html, php, css). Some common browsers are Internet explorer, Firefox, Chrome Opera, and Edge. A search engine is a website which resides on a server based network. Its software never appears on your machine; instead I takes the data you enter into a search box on its webpage (which you access by using the browser software on your PC) and runs it through its database looking for similar webbased-objects (usually webpages) that match your query. Finally the search engine writes out its results in a webpage format that your browser software can interpret (see above "browser" definition). SOME commonly known search engines are Google, Yahoo, Bing, duckDuckgo. Edit: after typing this reply, I, on a lark typed into my search engine of choice (Duckduckgo) the exact question " what is the difference between a browser and a search engine" My first result was http://www.differencebetween.net/technology/internet/difference-between-search-engine-and-browser/ So I'm not sure why you felt unable to find any explanations on the web.

Ccleaner misreported the entry. because the antivirus hid its source. This is by design of the antivirus. If this registry entry properly identified as being part of symantec/norton then viruses could easily disable your antivirus

All the plus means is that you were also provided with the other piriform software pro versions As far as the download I'm unsure, you'll need to contact the developers, as this is the user forum and we can't much provide aid. Please go to http://www.piriform.com/support And sign in at the bottom of the page

The reason he commented on the paragraphs is your post is nearly impossible to read and thus makes it difficult to discern what you are asking. It was the same feeling I got from The include/exclude section is only relevant to ccleaner's basic cleaning process and not the disc analysis. I'm not even sure what you are attempting to do, it sounds like you want to delete every .png on the harddrive, but there are bound to be ones in folders that windows doesn't allow users to access (like any within Windows UI apps).

This is a user forum only, the devs will likely look at it if you post it but unless they need more information on a bug they won't comment. Sadly none of us, probably, can tell the answer to your "how does it work..." question

Yeah I think it's Hazelnut's blocker or proxy cause I see I on tapatalk and web

Not only does this have nothing to do with the topic, but it absolutely isn't at all what piriform software does so why... no don't answer, if you are serious please start a new topic in the suggestions board

Lol I did not mean to suggest the thread was a rabbit hole, but only trium's safe mode administrator line of thought. I would like for you to continue working with us on this, I'd you so wish

Wierd, it said xp. Well poo

I think this is going down a rabbit hole @trium @bartholomewking Random Question is the date/time on your pc correct. Can the following utility see SRP? http://nicbedford.co.uk/software/systemrestoreexplorer/ (NOTE: POSTING THIS OR ANY COMPETITION SOFTWARE IN OPEN FORUM IS FOR MODERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING ONLY)

By random do you mean it's only occurred the once? or can you reliably recreate the crash. If the latter please run ccleaner with the debug command and recreate the crash. Afterwards post the created log here

+1 (I haven't opened speccy in a while so it may already be there, but if it isn't this would make spec reading easier)

You must exit chrome and make sure it is not running in background processes. Vous devez quitter chrome, et assurez-vous qu'il ne fonctionne pas dans les processus d'arrière-plan.

Hi, please don't mention software by name that directly competes with piriform software, it makes my job harder.

As far as I can tell that just means that if "I" upgrade to 10 in five months I won't have to install 60 separate updates, maybe just 4 or 5

Perfect, yes then it would be correct to assume no harm would befoul your pc or at least no more than would occur with regular computer use

Did you try the fix for WMI that hazelnut pointed to in reply 13

You can already do this (as I do) using customlocation http://www.piriform.com/docs/ccleaner/advanced-usage/ccleaner-ini-files/how-to-clean-user-data-from-non-standard-mozilla-browsers Also works for opera and chrome

There is no cleaning differences between pro and free. There are no default exclusions (in the include exclude section). maybe it carried over from your free installation and you had forgotten it was there.

As long as you don't have Wipe Free Space enabled and turn off multiple wipes, there should not be harm done. Those two options I mentioned cause more wear and tear on your hard drive than a normal clean would.

Devs rarely if ever post in the forum, though do note that they read all threads/posts. When they do it's in the bugs boards to ask for more information
