The latest CCleaner update added "old Windows installation folder cleaning". I thought this was the same as the new Windows disk cleanup option of deleting old updates? If so it doesn't even show up in my CCleaner, let alone clean it (have only just been able to confirm it now I have updates that disk cleanup shows up) So have I misunderstood this option or is this a bug? (Using Win7 Home, CC4.07)

Are we now removing reg cleaner backups?:

I don't see the point either. I suppose I could KIND of see why you might wanna wipe your custom palette (in very rare circumstances) but wiping the gimp font cache achieves no positive at all, except for a temporary freeing up of space until you run it again. And it makes Gimp 5 or 6 times slower to open, and it's not exactly a speed demon starter as it is

I think this entry could do with either modifying or a warning: [GIMP 2.8 More*] LangSecRef=3021 DetectFile=%UserProfile%\.gimp-2.8\ Default=False FileKey1=%LocalAppData%|recently-used.xbel FileKey2=%LocalAppData%\fontconfig\cache FileKey3=%UserProfile%\.gimp-2.8|colorrc Filekey 2 causes Gimp to be majorly slow to open as it has to rebuild it's font cache every time you open it (and as such doesn't really free up any space as it just gets recreated the exact same size every time anyway) (Edit: And filekey 3 seems to wipe your custom colour palette which could be a major PITA for some)

But there certainly wasn't 3gb of files gone from my winsxs folder

I was experimenting with this yesterday and was gonna post a thread on it. I think the winsxs reference is a dud (I found similar comment that it was emptying that folder), as running that cleanup option cleared 3Gb of files but my winsxs folder was unchanged (I did try to track the changes but didn't realise the files were removed during a restart so I failed in that regard)

Ah but having to scroll further from the page content every time I go to the tab bar doesn't work faster for me (but Chrome does it so all browsers must apparently )

And there speaks a developer, not end user

Thanks greatly for checking, hopefully someone will pick it up and run with it as a theme. I've not bothered with themes for a couple of years (with the exception of a Persona theme), but that I WOULD use!

Oh I don't mind them changing it (much), just wish developers would have a little originality instead of, en masse, following the crowd.

Oh geez, it's looking increasingly Metro-esque. Is it just me that's sick of every website and software going down the ultra dumbed down flat big button route Oh and does the dark theme properly exist yet or has it been dropped?

Already mentioned HERE, so will hopefully be removed in future update.

I don't know how many different ways I have to say this, but you're wrong! Just cos that is the case on your system doesn't make it the case for every other.

Your links refer to the C:\Intel folder. The Intel program files folder holds the necessary files for wi-fi and turbo boost (possibly more on other peoples systems)

NO NO NO, that removes the whole intel folders!!! Do NOT add this.

Ok, I know it's not the reason I bought the entry up, but what use is a backup program with no backups? I would understand if it removed only old backups but it removes everything. And my memory may be failing but I'm pretty sure erunt limits the number of backups it creates anyway, so that entry just seems stupid to me.

Hope you at least TRIED pressing the actual like button, never know, one day it might actually work

Did we decide not to include entries that deleted reg backups, only I notice there's an entry in the update that deletes all erunt reg backups (which on a side point seems completely pointless anyway - why install a program to make backups, then have a cleaner delete them all? )

I would suggest a warning be added to that entry as deleting reg backups from a registry cleaner as aggressive as Regseeker (or ANY reg cleaner for that matter) is not necessarily a good idea.

Thanks for the update. I never had any issues from using the original entry, but having looked in the scm folder I don't have any evm files so maybe just been lucky.

Oh, my winapp2 entry is different and has two cleaning locations, must have been changed at some point.

Indeed, it is the driver installation files, not the driver files themselves. The winapp2 nvidia entry makes uninstalling the drivers impossible without a reinstall first, hope this new CCleaner entry doesn't also do this, at least not without warning (it only cleans one of the winapp2 entries locations though so this may not be an issue)

Ooh, excellent, been waiting ages for some minor GUI improvements and bug fixes
