    Winapp2.ini additions

    in CCleaner

    Posted

    I just ran the compress registry part of jv16 powertools and it created the following files. Can I suggest the winapp2 entry for all of the jv16 versions also check for these and similar named files in the other folders?

     

    C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\NTUSER.DAT.tmp

    C:\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\NTUSER.DAT.tmp

    Start CCleaner /auto early in boot process

    I was wondering the same.

     

    Because if you use firefox, you can use forcastfox. If your using Windows 7, you can use Windows 7 built in Weather gadget instead.

    Additionally, why do you need Google Toolbar? Can't you just search Google from your default browser? Most newer browsers include pop-up blocking as well.

    Roboform? Firefox manages website logins, as does, I believe, most newer web browsers.

    Wallpaper manager? Windows 7 includes the ability to highlight several wallpapers, right-click & set as desktop background, & you can select how often they rotate.

     

    Seems quite a few unnecessary start-ups to me...

     

    I currently use Windows XP Pro sp3 so a lot of your suggestions aren't available natively. Hence why I use a 3rd party wallpaper changer, desktop weather app, etc. I use Google Toolbar so it can show me related searches I like to be able to use hard to recall passwords so that is why I use Roboform.

     

    Sicne I do plan to get a new computer by Christmas 2012 - it will be either Windows 7 or maybe 8. The wallpaper changer I use now makes a list of custom image files that are wanted to rotate on a user-selected basis. How exactly does the wallpaper changer in Win 7 work? Screen shots of someone using it would be greatly appreciated!

     

    I cannot believe anyone wants to start ctfmon :wacko:

    It took me a lot of effort to track down and fix all the things that caused it to spring into life.

     

    So far as I was concerned the only thing it achieved was to intercept a computer shut-down with a lockup.

     

    TO ANSWER YOUR SPECIFIC QUESTION :-

    YES

    It is easy - you launch CCleaner with the arguments /AUTO /SHUTDOWN.

    This will clean all junk and then shut-down the computer (ctfmon permitting)

    This should leave your computer squeaky clean ready for the next time you Boot up.

     

    What exactly does Clfmon do - or supposed to do? And it starts automatically as part of windows -

     

    The simple easy fix is Ctfmon Remover (freeware), it replaces it with a dummy file that completely disables that p.o.s. exe file.

     

    I may use it - have to do some investigating first....

    This should work better. and if you recall I said I wasn't sure what the local application data should be so it matches all OS possibilities. So there is no need to get after me either.

    Software Distribution logs probably wont be added to the official binaries.

     

    
[ASP.NET*]

Default=False
FileKey1=%WinDir%\Microsoft.net\Framework\*\Temporary ASP.NET Files|*.*|RECURSE
FileKey2=%WinDir%\Microsoft.net\Framework64\*\Temporary ASP.NET Files|*.*|RECURSE

     

    - Note, I only found this folder in the v4.0.30319 folder, not any of the others.

     

    Other profiles have been requested, but probably will not be added. There is some documentation on this pinned in the CCleaner General forum.

     

    You said it was doc'ed elsewhere - might be nice to have a direct link.

     

    Also would it be possible fo0r someone to keep up a new file (similar to winapp2.ini) for enteries posted in the forums but that don't make it to the official binaries? It would save someone from having to seartch the forums, thereby haveing the forums run easier and the clients computer run meaner and cleaner?

    I use WLMessenger and the current version of CCleaner removes both the accounts and password for the program. What can be done about this? I am not sure if it's Server Passwords or one of the WL* enteries.
