That is a file that you've added yourself for cleaning. Simply go to Options>Include and delete the filepath you mentioned.

What's the big deal?
It's been debated to death here many many times, it ain't gonna happen

Issue is Ccleaner crushing when processing certain opera's cookies4.dat database.
But until you have a fully installed properly working Opera I doubt the developers will take any notice, they can hardly be expected to work on bugs for "half-deleted" installs.
-
That thing is the most worthless piece of coding around, why use it to only remove it seconds later I wonder.
You don't actually need to use it. If you ignore the initial download box (which starts the Adobe download manager), then click the "If your download doesn't start...." link, it downloads just the Flash Player

I'll get a hold of these embedded .ini's for future reference.
Or perhaps use an install tracking program when you install stuff such as ZSoft Uninstaller or Total Uninstaller and or a program that gives a more thorough uninstall without tracking the initial install such as Revo Uninstaller.
I actually use Total uninstall AND Revo. I track the install with Total Uninstall then when uninstalling use Revo followed by Total Uninstall.
(PS I'm not suggesting Total Uninstall is a better tracker than Zsoft, I actually suspect it isn't, it's just what I'm used to using and have so many installs already tracked with it I couldn't get rid of Total Uninstall now anyway)

Surely the issue is a screwed up Opera install, not a CCleaner bug???
-
Not sure what else you guys would need to try and track this
Did you see Hazels post???
Some users with very, very, large amounts of data listed as being cleaned had more than one version of Internet Explorer installed or use IETester. -
I have been using CCleaner for a long time, now I have 2.28 installed with Win XP SP3. I used to have it run automatically at startup, but recently I relized that my recent file links disappeared from Microsoft Office programs. If I disable running CCleaner at startup, the problem disappears. What should I do to be able to run CCleaner automatically at startup again without losing my recent file links?
Untick Microsoft Office under the cleaners Applications tab

You simply had to remove the key CCleaner uses to detect Google toolbar is installed:
HKCU\Software\Google\NavClient\1.1
This is not a fault of CCleaner but of the toolbar for not uninstalling fully and does happen with some programs.
For future reference the easiest way to find this out is to download the embedded ini files from this thread which is updated with the current ini files with each CCleaner update. You can then find the code used for the program you are after and it will list the detect key.

I wonder what their fave av uninstall support costs.
Don't be silly, they won't charge you to uninstall. No, they'll offer you an upgrade. For a small fee
-
Thanks Hazel, FileHippo's update checker wasn't notifying me of this for some reason
Oh and I do hate how they try to push the Adobe download manager on you without giving you any option in the matter
-
Yup, one of the most exciting finishes to a rugby match I've ever seen. Made even more so by the fact I'm half Welsh and was watching the game with a Scot

You could try deleting them in safe mode.
-
Probably not but make a backup when it asks just to be on the safe side
-
Ok, I've just been looking into this some more and I think this may actually be a Firefox quirk/bug. The history entries that can't be deleted are all sites that are bookmarked.
For example if you have a history entry for piriform.com and have it bookmarked, no amount of running CCleaner will remove the history entry (nor will trying to delete it within FF). However if you delete all your bookmarks relating to piriform.com, close Firefox, then run CCleaner, when you reopen FF the Piriform history entry will now be deleted. And/or the entry CAN now be manually deleted in Firefox (by right click>delete or FF's history cleaner)
-
Unless I'm crazy, I seem to remember a help file/thread that listed what every check box in Ccleaner did.
-
Only thing to remember is to delete older copies of the registry from time to time as they take up a lot of space.
You don't need to delete old backups manually if you are using Erunt's 'backup registry at startup' option, it can be set to delete old backups automatically by adding the "/days:X" switch to the end of the startup shortcut's properties (where X is the number of days backups to keep). eg my erunt startup shortcut is this:
"C:\Program Files\ERUNT\AUTOBACK.EXE" %SystemRoot%\ERDNT\AutoBackup\#Date# /noconfirmdelete /noprogresswindow /days:3

Continue OT:
Facebook has all but got rid of the floating toolbar at the bottom, only thing left there is the chat floating.
note: if you still have the full bar then your account hasn't updated yet.
Oh my Facebook page has now updated, I really really like it. So much more intuitive and easy to use.
*Sarcasm off*

Oh great, so the one site I actually use it is getting rid of it

I've changed my mind. From now on I'm going to pronounce it.....

Because its easier for some of us to say it that way. See Sea Cleaner.
Easier to say? By adding more letters and make the name longer? You're already saying "Sea cleaner" so that is obviously easy to say already, then adding an extra sea (Does this mean "C C C cleaner" is easier still?)
Don't think I'll ever understand this one lol
-
Um, its spelt CCleaner, so pronounced C Cleaner. Why would you add an extra C that isn't there? Strange
-
Info here
On an OT note, why is it seemingly every site on the planet now is adding a pointless Facebook style toolbar at the bottom. And just in case that alone didn't annoy you half of them pop up some pointless balloon message to say "Welcome to my brilliant website", or some such rubbish, covering part of the page.
*Rant mode off*

can this be explane
Yes, CCleaner almost certainly won't trash your system.
CCleaner Delete Junctions
in CCleaner Bug Reporting
Posted
The line starting "Include1=PATH" is ONLY added to the config file when YOU add an include file in CCleaner. As I said, go to CCleaner's Options, Include section and delete "C:\Documents and Settings\nicolas\|*.rdbkp"
That is a separate issue I think, I have no experience of Junctions though and don't really understand what you're getting at so maybe someone else can give some idea with that
