[Is it SAFe to clean .........]

Hi there,

 

Is it safe to run ....

 

start menu shortcuts

user assist history

iis log files

 

 

If I check these above listed items, then all that is unchecked are ...

 

start menu shortcuts

desktop shortcuts

old prefetch

menu order

tray not...

window size

 

I am after the maximum privacy I can achieve and so what else should I be doing (my setting is Gutman)

 

many thanks

John

[I need some guidance on using CC]

Some info here for you on those advanced cleaning settings

 

http://docs.piriform.com/ccleaner/ccleaner...d-windows-files

 

Perhaps wait until you feel comfortable with ccleaner before using the advanced options?

 

As regarding RegCure I have never used it. I find ccleaner is a very gentle and safe reg cleaner, sometimes others can go too deep.

 

Thanks for the reference to the settings.

As to the second part of my questions, I would be interested in furthering this discussion as to how deep to clean

[I need some guidance on using CC]

Good morning,

 

I have several questions concerning CC and I hope I am not bothering anyone by rolling them into this one post

 

Firstly, Advanced Cleaning Settings.

 

What are the following and should I include them in the cleaning sequence .....

 

old prefetch data

menu order cache

tray notifications cache

window Size/ .....

User Assit ...

IIS Log Files

 

 

Secondly ( if I am not pushing my luck too far)

 

A couple of other programs (RegCure, in free mode, in particular) are showing 700+ faults after I have run CC.

Presumably they amount to nothing of interest in CC.

 

They are ....

 

Com/Active X 4

Path File Reference 420

Empty Registry File 290

 

Any suggestions are warmly received.

[How do I clear firefox address bar]

Hi hamall, and welcome to the forum.

 

I've found the best solution for the Firefox Awesome "Awful Bar", if that's what you are referring to, is to disable it:

 

First, go to your Firefox settings by putting "about:config" (without the quotes) into the address bar. Click past the warning message, and scroll down to "browser.urlbar.maxRichResults".

 

Double click the entry, and change the default setting of 12 to 0, and then close down and relaunch Firefox.

 

Hope that helps.

 

 

Many thanks Dennis ... worked perfectly
