[Feature requests]

Need a command-line version that would allow us to audit a machine from the command-line, saving results to a file. Having to run this manually on each machine is painfully expensive in time.

[Suggestion - Generating XML from the command line]

A command line option that runs silently in the background would be a major feature that could make this a widely accepted tool. It's a great tool, but right now it doesn't scale. It's currently only useful on a small scale. I can run it on one computer at a time and manually export the data, but in a business environment time is money. That means I or someone is still getting paid to go around running this on numerous computers. Then repeating the whole process again to get an updated inventory.

 

We do IT work for about 200 companies, and if we could just run a command line version of this in a login script and have it save the info to a server share... now THAT would be something I, and probably IT admins around the world, would use in a heartbeat.

Add my STRONG vote for this feature.

 

Also need to add the ability to load the XML file as a snapshot to make this truly useful.

[Small, small suggestion]

I know there's a nice option to start CCleaner every day but that would get a little annoying.

There should be a way to make a schedule for it to start up automatically, e.g. Once a week.

Thanks

[Expanded STARTUP ITEMS List]

Hi,

 

I would like to request an update to the STARTUP ITEMS list.

Instead of listing just the CURRENT USERS startup items, I would love to see CCleaner list ALL the users startup items ( by SID perhaps, or user name ?? ) in that list.......please examine what SPYBOT SEARCH & DESTROY does with it's startup list. And sure, I could just use Spybot, but I LOVE what you've done with this tool....along with it's speed.

[CCleaner doesn't completely clean Flash Player]

The problem with deleting the settings.sol file is that it stores all the customized settings you can configure, at the link given above, under different tabs. Like for example if you've unchecked the "update notification" box then it's reset back to default etc. and you'll be prompted with the pop-up window when the new flash version is available. I presonally don't like that.

 

So seems I have to manually delete the sites on the macromedia's page with the "delete all sites" button.

 

Or has anyone experimented with different settings there? Maybe you can disable some option and this list wouldn't be created and stored at all?

[Comments on release v1.02.085 Final]

Put in my extreme annoyance at the totally-automatic "phone home" feature. IMHO **_NO_** software should ever initiate an Internet connection without my EXPLICIT permission. I was extremely disappointed that my firewall told me that DF was trying to "talk to another computer". This is BAD.

 

It's acceptable to initiate a connection when I choose "check for updates".

 

IMHO the "check for updates" page should NOT require Javascript. You're getting the current version in the URL passed from the program ( http://www.defraggler.com/update/?v=1.02.085&l=1033 -- BTW what does "l=1033" mean?), should be easy enough to have a page come up that says "You're current" or "New version available" without having to enable scripting in my browser.

 

Also, FWIW, DF throws an unfriendly error when I try to run it as limited user. IMHO it should check for admin-rights when it is started up and advise the user of that.
