Augeus and Marmite
1. I did not have CC set to run on startup
2. I rebooted and ran CC. Index.dat analysis stated '0 files to be removed.
3. the registry address "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\PendingFileRenameOperations" does not contain a field "PendingFileRenameOperations". I ran a search of the registry for "PendingFileRenameOperations" and the only reference I found was :-
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\KeysNotToRestore]

May I ask whether you two are running Vista? If so, is it x64?
I also ran "Index.dat analyzer" which DOES clean the dat files. "Why Reboot" showed nothing and no new PendingFileRenameOperations entry appeared in the registry.
Thanks
