Go to "Options - Ignore" add manually add the files you want kept to the ignore list. CCleaner will no longer delete them. *I didn't even realize CCleaner cleaned this application.

I would be more than interested in doing that. I think given that you essentially have all the same entry's that I have now, of course I will keep checking for ones you have missed I will send you a PM on the asap so we can discuss this without cluttering the forums. Finally, @Kane3162: Haha, it's very true. Originally I wrote it as a small app so that my father could get more CCleaner awesomeness without having to navigate the internet (something he is woeful at), since I was bored one evening I decided I would post it on my blog - never expecting more than a handful of friends to ever use it. It popularity (given how essentially pointless it is) came as a huge surprise.

Hi winapp2.ini ~ here is one that I just added to The Web Atom file. Its incomplete as I don't actually use the program, however its somewhere to start More to come as I work out what is in my file that isn't in yours.

My PC had a recurring bug in which it becomes impossible to delete files. I found absolutely nothing on Google about the issue, so I decided that there would be no harm in doing some software testing on new programs before I did a reformat. I downloaded Registry Mechanic and ran a registry scan, it found 1200 issues or so. It must have done something useful, since my problem disappeared instantly. It has happened a few times since, but each time a run with Registry Mechanic fixes it. Registry Fixers/Cleaner can actually do something!? I was (and still am) shocked.

You could just not turn it on..?

The idea was to have something that can update WinApp2.ini automatically, that feature was almost ready. Basically each new WinApp2.ini file was assigned a number, on startup the tool would check if the version on the net had a bigger number and prompt the user to download it.

I guys I would be happy to comply with all requests by piriform people, unfortunately my host has suspended my site due to a HUGE spike in traffic.

I can't seem to extract either the source code or the program itself. I can open the archives in WinRAR and browse the files, however when I try and extract them it says the archive is corrupt..? Either way, this looks like a brilliant idea Keep up the good work!

You just described a workaround for the issue yourself. Go ahead and implement it with Task Scheduler and see how it goes.

It really doesn't serve much purpose, but It would be very easy for the devs to implement into the program. Just save the figure in the CCleaner registry entry.

I don't think UAC can be bypasset, as it is designed to protect the computer from certain behaviour. If Microsoft allow one program to bypass it then Malware authors will follow.

Firefox has known issues with Hotmail, resulting in non-responsiveness, inability to retain text on email replying and forwarding and a plethora of other things. If you are not running Firefox, then it could be that Microsoft's latest overhaul of Hotmail has broken compatibility in some other browser.

Backgroundworkers (notice that their is no space) are controls that allow a code to be run in a background thread using Invoke calls rather than Asynchronous cross thread calls in order to update the UI thread. Out of interest, why is the ability to run in a backgroundworker in any way integral to an applications ability to use a scheduler? The reason I was "creating an app to run an app" as you so intelligently put it is because I (like many other people here) think that a scheduler is a genuinely good idea. If the moderators and yourself think that it is entirely "bonehead" and pointless, then I will simply create an automatic scheduler myself. I've modified the binaries to create plugins for more complex programs than CCleaner (although I admit they are usually games; which typically facilitate some sort of manipulation to begin with) - It will be a challenge but not altogether impossible.

Well you would be wrong:

No, a program to tell CCleaner when to run in the background (it opens as nothing more than a tray icon and does its thing invisible to the user.)I have it set to run twice a day whenever the PC is idle.

Wouldn't it be possible to use the Windows Task Scheduler to call CCleaner every X amount of hours using a commandline switch? EDIT: Yes, it is possible and I now have CCleaner running every day at 11am Working on a GUI to automate this now.

I don't think you will ever be able to get people to agree on whether Vista or XP is better. I'm personally with Sora96, XP runs much better and is less bloated than Vista.

.sqlite files are basically databases, chocked full of information such as cookies, history etc.

Ccleaning for those browsers is already possible using the winapp2.ini function. Check out this sticky.

Computers can access files even faster at the beginning of the disk.

In that aspect, its a good thing. But you have to remember that environments such as .NET and Java run applications within there own little security bubble, so actually delivering any kind of (formidable) payload is practically impossible

If he says .NET I will actually die of laughter.

I believe that ccleaner uses the Process.Start("www.example.com") namespace whenever it checks for updates, which is the same used by almost all apps. The fact the IE cannot be launched via this command means their is likely something wrong with IE on your end. If I'm right (which is quite unlikely given how tired I am - will make coffee in about 10 seconds) then you will either need to follow these instructions or install a superior browser such as Firefox or Google Chrome. As for compatibility view*; This simply forces IE into whats called "Quirks Mode" so that it can present the page correctly. It has nothing to do with actually opening a web page, only interpreting it. *If Microsoft made a browser that actually worked in the first place this wouldn't be needed. Grrr at how much IE sucks.
