Thank you for the new and modified/revised entries.
Winapp2.ini update:
https://github.com/MoscaDotTo/Winapp2/commit/c30828be1e9710a20de8620f7b43225720d50c72@siliconman01 Thank you for the kind words.

The following line works for Windows 11:
DetectOS=10.0.22000| -
Please check if the respective 32-bit path is still present:
HKCR\WOW6432Node\CLSID\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000} HKCU\Software\Wow6432Node\Macromedia\FlashPlayer HKLM\Software\WOW6432Node\Macromedia\FlashPlayerPepper C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\flash\flashplayer.xpt -
Thank you for the reply.
In my opinion, it is not very useful if an installer accepts "C:\", "C:\Program Files", "C:\Program Files (x86)", etc. as the installation folder without a subfolder for the application. Unfortunately, this seems to be standard for NSIS based installers, for whatever reason... However, the uninstaller of other applications (e.g. Firefox) at least deletes only its own files and subfolders.
You should actually know at Piriform which files and subfolders will be added after installation when CCleaner is used, so a list with the corresponding file and folder patterns should be easy to implement. Such a list should always be preferred over aggressive recursive deletion.

Adobe Flash Player is detected by the following registry keys and files:
HKCR\CLSID\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000} HKCU\Software\Macromedia\FlashPlayer HKLM\Software\Macromedia\FlashPlayerPepper C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\flash\flashplayer.xptYou can check if any of them are still present and then delete them. After that Adobe Flash Player should not be displayed anymore (after a restart of CCleaner).

I can confirm this extremely dangerous bug! And I honestly find it an impertinence from Piriform that this bug, which has already been reported several times, has not been investigated.
The problem already starts with the installer. If another installation folder is selected here, the installer does not automatically attach the "CCleaner" folder. This leads to the fact that CCleaner is installed unintentionally e.g. into the folder "D:\Program Files" and not into "D:\Program Files\CCleaner".
If the Unistaller is executed now, it deletes the complete content of the folder "D:\Program Files"!
How do you manage to code an uninstaller so badly?
By the way, reproducing the bug took me less than 5 minutes in a VM. Very sad that Piriform can't manage something like that itself...

I must correct myself, it also deletes the database "SRUDB.dat". (The temporary files of the database would be only "*.jrs" and "*tmp.log".)
If the database is deleted, it is better to delete the entire contents of the folder and rename the entry to "Data Usage".

Just a question: is there a reason for the separate FileKeys or couldn't they be merged as well?

Just for your information:
The directory "C:\Windows\System32\sru" contains the database for recording the network data usage.
Here you can find more information about it:
https://www.thewindowsclub.com/manage-the-data-usage-limit-on-windows-10
https://www.thewindowsclub.com/clear-data-usage-in-windows-10The Winapp2.ini file has contained this for a very long time. However, CCleaner's new entry does not delete the database itself, but only the temporary files of the database.

This entry is not working on Windows 10. Detect should be changed to DetectFile=%LocalAppData%\Packages\microsoft.windows.authhost.sso_8wekyb3d8bbwe and DetectOS=6.2|6.3 should be changed to DetectOS=10.0|.
[AuthHost *] ...
???
This entry was never for Windows 10, it has always used "DetectOS=6.2|6.3", thus it will only show up on Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. A change should therefore not be necessary. By the way "DetectOS=10.0|" means Windows 10 and newer.

Correct, but this entry then still needs a warning, because all user settings set in Notepad will be deleted as well.

Notepad is now also an app, unfortunately. The user data is stored in the file "C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsNotepad_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SystemAppData\Helium\User.dat".
Unfortunately, only a Winapp2.ini entry could be made here which deletes the entire file and thus all settings. Maybe the CCleaner developers can edit the "User.dat" file directly.

@Winapp2.ini still seems to be busy, so I helped out again.

This correction would not take even a minute...

The name hasn't changed, I'm using the newest stable version (download ZIP package that is). ...
Thanks for the reply. If you downloaded a ZIP package, then it was the Intel graphics driver, right? However, the "Intel Graphics Command Center" is automatically installed afterwards via the Microsoft Store. The entry [Intel Graphics Command Center *] only refers to this app, not to the graphics driver. (The service is installed by the driver installation so that the driver can communicate with this app.)

'Network Passwords' under 'Windows Explorer' are your Wifi connection logins rather than application logins.
From the documentation: https://support.piriform.com/hc/en-us/articles/360047807132-Windows-Explorer-cleaning-rules#what-are-cleaning-rules--0-2
...This documentation is completely wrong in my opinion. "Network Passwords" has always cleared the Windows password vault, i.e. everything that can be managed via the "Credential Manager". This includes e.g. passwords for file shares, but also the passwords of Outlook or other online services.

"Intel Graphics Experience" is just the package name. The app itself has always been called "Intel Graphics Command Center", both on Windows and in the Microsoft Store. I would not be aware that this has been changed.

Duplicate entry names are not possible. The name should therefore be [Microsoft Teams App *], for example.

Modified Key: [Windows Client WebExperience *] ...
... FileKey2=%LocalAppData%\Packages\MicrosoftWindows.Client.WebExperience_*\LocalState\EBWebView\Default|*.log|RECURSEJust to be sure: The files and folders below "EBWebView" correspond to a user profile of Edge Chromium. Therefore "*.log" files are not usual log files but important databases. Log files are named "LOG" and "LOG.old". (You can use the entries for Edge Chromium as a guide.)
-
One more small note:
If the creator of the FileKey wanted to delete only the files within the subfolders, and not the subfolders themselves, then this should also be clearly recognizable in the syntax:
FileKey1=%windir%\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\DeliveryOptimization\Cache\*|*.*This makes it clear to everyone, not just the creator, what the function of the FileKey is.

Edge stores this information in its own database. The following entry deletes this database:
[Edge PDF Database *] LangSecRef=3006 DetectFile=%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Edge* FileKey1=%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Edge*\User Data\*\Pdf|pdfSQLiteI tested it with a locally saved PDF. After deleting the database, the PDF opens again with page 1.
The "Session_*" files are already deleted by CCleaner's built-in [Edge Chromium - Session] entry:
