  1. Here is a small package I made for work and routinely use it to clean temp files off of the 200-300 windows PCs we have. It uses CCleaner to delete Temp files for ALL USERS of a PC. This was developed under Windows XP SP3 and I have experienced no problems with it running on other Windows OS's. Feel free to tinker around with it, and if you have any further ideas of things to add, I'd love to hear them.

     

    I can't wait until something like this is integrated into the program itself. Until then, this is what I use?

    How it works?

    It's just a simple WinRAR SFX archive which expands to "C:\Program Files\CCleaner\" and executes a batch file. Inside the archive are 3 files, one magical.

    CCleaner.exe (of course)

    Ccleaner.txt (the typical settings you choose, not to be confused with ccleaner.ini. you can create your own by saving fresh settings to a ini file, then renaming it. Please remember though, not all settings are global)

    CleanUp.bat (the batch scripting which builds the ccleaner.ini file and executes ccleaner.exe)

    What CleanUp.bat does is goes out and looks at the "C:\Documents and Settings\" directory. Rather then it clean every subfolder and potentially delete something we should not, it determines (by means of what the subfolder attributes are) which are actually user profiles and which are for system use. Upon determining, it outputs those names to a file called users.txt. This file is then used in a magical script which builds the ccleaner.ini. From there, the lovely ccleaner.exe does the rest.

    this cleans out the contents of...

    C:\Documents and Settings\***\Cookies\

    C:\Documents and Settings\***\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\

    C:\Documents and Settings\***\Local Settings\Temp\

    ................................................................................

    ................

     

    I Do This:

    o Start a command prompt with start, run, cmd.exe

    o Right Click Paste into the command prompt window this----> move "%userprofile%\desktop\ccleaner.lnk" "%allusersprofile%\desktop"

  2. i am on the latest version of firefox

    and use ie#7 and want to mention- ccleaner is not deleting firefox cookies,

     

    I am on XP sp3

     

    I had to go into firefox and select clear private data , then i went back to ccleaner

    and cookies were gone

    so i solved this issue myself and wanted to share with forum

     

    Kind regards

  3. Often after running CCleaner,....when I attempt to shut down or restart two of the computers with XP SP3 , I get the message "Windows is currently in the middle of a long operation. Either wait for it to finish or cancel it before you quit Windows".

     

    I see nothing running in the task manager .

     

     

     

    My current work-around

    is to switch to a different User Name

    and select restart or shutdown from that User Name

  4. I believe that options available in the first screenshot have always been there. Try unchecking index.dat in ccleaner.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I have been following your Tip since November 14 .and all is OK great.

     

     

     

    ---------------------------------------------------------

     

    But since CCleaner has Now updated to 136.430 , do I continue " unchecking index.dat in ccleaner." ?

    Or has the cookie issue been resolved?

  5. After I installed IE7,I noticed my cookies ( after a PC Restart)were not associated with the sites I always visit ,and I was having to always'Logon"-with my User name and password to enter forum's

    after changing over to IE #7,

     

    Has anyone attempted to change the Control Panel Privacy to not use the Microsoft default?
