[False Reporting on Unused Extensions]

They more than likely won't be effected in any way.

WOW! WOW! WOW!

 

166 Registry issues deleted at one fell swoop by CCleaner; the result of all these deletions is that 2? minutes have been lopped off bootup time.

 

What is particularly noteworthy is that I regularly use an expensive Registry Cleaner recommended by PC Magazine, but it has never found the crap that CCleaner has.

 

CCleaner rocks. Its performance and the tech support from this forum are topnotch.

 

Congratulations to its developer and the people who are giving a helping hand here.

 

Regards to everyone,

[What is the meaning of "-i%1" and "%1"?]

Several entries of CCleaner's Issues contain DATA terminating in "-i%1" or "%1" [without the double quotes]. Some follow *.EXE; others replace .EXE with "-i%1".

 

What do these terminations mean?

[False Reporting on Unused Extensions]

Those are temporary, not actively used.

Not all. *.sy2 is a backup file for DarnPasswords, which automatically backups up daily; a *.tds file was used a few days ago.

 

Although it is true that the *.r3d and *.set files have not been accessed in a long time, they are, nevertheless, files I do not want to affect adversely.

[False Reporting on Unused Extensions]

Cleaner's Issues falsely includes .R3D, .set, sy2, .td3, and .xpi as "Unused File Extensions", but my files include all of them.

*.R3D is used by "3D Inspection Systems",

*.set is also used by "3D Inspection Systems",

*.sy2 is used by "Darn Passwords",

*td3 is used by "TDS-3",

*.xpi is used by "Mozilla" (several of these files are tmp or temp; one is "dictionary_search_latest", another is "xpcom", and the last is "gre".)
