If someone is looking at videos online that would be an easy amount to achieve, however allot of people also have their browsers automatically delete the cache upon closing.
that why i'm saying with browser monitoring, system monitoring will be redundant...no other way to make a 1gb of temp from normal usage
the frequency of checking every 8 hours for me is too quick
i hope we can have the option to change the frequency
-
I'm unable to install the newest version. The installer gets about halfway and then I get an error message: Error opening file for writing: C:\Program Files\CCleaner64.exe Click to Abort to swto the installation, Retry to try again, or Ignore to skip this file." Then there are the three buttons to Abort, Retry or Ignore. I have downloaded this newest version 4 times and every time, I run into this error. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit, Home Edition.
Any ideas?
make sure that ccleaner is not running in the background
check whether on the tray icon or using task manager

Hi rjo98
I have been told that the 'Automatically check for updates to CCleaner' setting will work, however the frequency it checks for updates is much less.
lol...then what about active monitoring?
everyday?every hour?
and i do hope we can change this..if we set to 2gb,how pc usage in 8 hours can get 2gb of temp files?
or even if we set to 0.5gb, with browser monitoring, this will be redundant
By default, CCleaner will check your PC every 8 hours and take action if cleaning will save more than 0.5GB of hard drive space.

better if you can provide screenshot

from the thread given by @SMalik http://news.jrsoftware.org/news/innosetup/msg97204.html
{usercf} expands to the "Common" subfolder of this path by default, so any script using this explicitly will of course use that path. But AFAIK this cannot occur automatically -- it requires the script author to explicitly choose to use it. (And being a {user*} path, it should go without saying that it should not be used unless the install is PrivilegesRequired=lowest.)
might be better to put Warning
-
by enabling System Monitoring or Browser Monitoring, Active Monitoring will be enable too
if Active Monitoring for CC update, what about option to check for update in "Settings"?
-
from the link given by @Augeas
Into that folder might be placed things like default templates, configuration files, and other support data that applications might use that a) might be different for other users of the machine, and aren’t your actual working documents.
you should only read "AppData\Roaming at home" if you're not connected to any corporate environment
My concern is, these roaming files shown after "Analyzing" include important file names/locations such as tax files, documents & photos. I want to understand why they are included in a roaming file. Secondly, if it is alright to allow CCleaner to delete them, leaving All original files & data intact? Thank you.
might be Recent Document
if the file name ended with .lnk extension, it is Recent Document

you can right click > "add to exclude list" if you don't want it to appear on every scan

just put the winapp2.ini in the lang folder or outside ccleaner folder
when you want to use winapp2.ini, just put it back in and press F5 on ccleaner
this will load the winapp2.inior simply rename it then change back to winapp2.ini when you need
-
READ the article. It's always 5 days after, not a few and it's always still listed on their website with the older version. This was the first time it was removed.
this is from Timothy(MG)
can we still download the older slim version when newer version is out?
just curious
-
did you use the "original" winapp2.ini or only [*GCP - xx] entries?
if you're using the "original" winapp2.ini + [*GCP - xx] entries, you need to do some changes for the chrome entries inside "original" winapp2.ini
for example,
[Application Cache*]
LangSecRef=3029
SpecialDetect=DET_CHROME
DetectFile2=%LocalAppData%\Google\Chrome
DetectFile4=%ProgramFiles%\Google\Chrome
Default=False
FileKey1=%LocalAppData%\Google\Chrome*\User Data\*\Application Cache|*.*|REMOVESELF
FileKey5=%LocalAppData%\Google\Chrome\User Data\*\Application Cache|*.*|REMOVESELFCustomLocation1 enable CCleaner to detect your portable profile but the cleaning part didn't use special key as you can see for [*GCP - Internet Cache] which is SpecialKey1=N_CHROME_CACHE ,instead it use different path which is FileKey1=%LocalAppData%\Google\Chrome*\User Data\*\Application Cache|*.*|REMOVESELF
point the filekey to your portable profile and you can have almost the same cleaning as installed version because for portable version, you only need to clean the profile folder
btw, i don't use chrome and i don't know if this will help you but i've done the same thing for my ff portable

I'm getting the same message with the latest version of CCleaner. A couple different variables in my case than those previously described.
I'm running Win7 64-bit with Norton Internet Security (not Avast). - so that's different
The startup item I'm trying to disable is in Chrome, not Windows Startup - so that's different
Anyone know the Chrome equivalent of MSConfig so I can test out the ability to disable using that vs. using CCleaner?
I'll post my results.
Thx
the "Chrome" only allow you to enable or disable extension, not program like MSConfig
this is different from OP so you might need to create new thread regarding this problem
it is better if you can provide a screenshot of your problem
-
you can create your own personal entries by using the code inside winapp.ini and winapp2.ini to suit your needs
even i have my own personal entries to suit my needs
unless the dev create a way to detect custom install location, changing the entries manually will be the best
or you can use symbolic links
-
but if i want to delete a file , inside the folder there are many files , i want to delete only this file
History
it has not extension
how can i add in the ini file
i mean for example i want to delete this file , again it has no extension
FileKey1=C:\temp\history
FileKey1=C:\temp|history
this will delete "history" file in temp folder
-
this is what inside winapp2.ini related to cleaning automaticdestination folder
you can use this entry inside your winsys2.ini or you can go to winapp2.ini thread which will provide more cleaning option but with additional risk
go here http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=32310
please read the spoiler before using winapp2.ini

how bout right click at the address bar and choose Delete History ?
ccleaner without winapp2.ini should be able to delete the address by choosing Other Explorer MRUs which will delete this line
RegKey12=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TypedPaths
source:
http://www.guidingtech.com/17977/delete-windows-explorer-address-bar-history/
could you paste here the entry that you use to solve this problem?
-
this problem only happened to older version of CCleaner
update your CCleaner to latest version v4.16 and report back here
and it is also helpful if you can state your OS and chrome version
-
try disable secure file deletion
-
only registry as the backup option only appear when cleaning registry, not file
-
duplicate entries
maybe the dev can tweak winapp.ini entry to include [Common Language Runtime Logs*] and [Microsoft CLR Logs*] into [Windows Log Files]
or combine both entries for winapp2.ini

i don't have any problem listing Filehippo as alternative download(for older version listing) but i prefer to remove cnet and maybe replace it with Majorgeeks
maybe its just me but i don't see any "Download" ads there
hope piriform can do this changes

I guess *.bak is ok - I don't use the program so I don't know. Just think - from my standpoint - any thing more specific then *.bak would be better
well, i don't use eset anymore so i don't know about this entry too
just asking incase the entry need that specific detection
sorry if you felt annoyed with the question
its just that i like to ask till i get/know the answer
-
weird..now, both are working
dunno why
I would suggest changing it to em*_*-*.dat.bak
Had a typo in the first posting.... sorry....
is there a reason why the entry need those em*_*-* when you can simply use * to replace em*_*-* ?
so that the entry become *.dat.bak instead of em*_*-*.dat.bak
or to make it simpler, *.bak

make sure that you disable "Task Bar Jumplist"
and "Recent Items More"(if you have)
