No use debating this, it ain't going to change back. MS has become " do it our way or go a way"
Googled a lot of stuff about win 10 and I am not keen on very much new MS policies.
Subscription for one, and whole lotta other things that don't suit my own personal preferences.
I'm not even sure if win 10 will be available as a retail DVD install version unless ya some sort of big corporation like IBM etc.
Google who MS have copied ideas from for win 10, it's not all that original. But that's how the IT game works I suppose, a game of "hierarchy" .
At best, I'll stick with the OS I got for now, and I know there are other OS's out there and may not be for all to dabble in.
Point is, CCleaner ain't gonna change back, it's obvious it's out of their control if they want to stay On due to MS policies in regards to how the Winge n Whine 10 is gonna be.

Of all the responses on this thread so far, there is no hint yet of a roll back to the old GUI look.
The word "lagacy" comes to mind, is this something MS is now trying to copy what Steve Jobs ( Apple) used in his marketing approach, non legacy principles ?
Is MS trying to copy this trend ?
Does this mean no matter how much we post here, they will not roll the GUI back ?
I can search and ask for my own BAT files to some extent, and still clean up what CC misses.
Why is that ?
I did post post code for DUI BAT files, but, hmm, the post got deleted ?? !!

So by now the general consensus is most don't want the new GUI,
Hope the CCleaner developers reply,
or they won't ?
or wait n see ?
or what now ?

This is weird, rather corporatish and nerdish who ever is the owners of CCleaner.
This change in the GUI happened around the time most people around the world goes on vacation, so there won't be any reply from the real admin. They have not returned from their yaughts, or are lost at sea somewhere, or kidnapped by sea pirates.
Moderators are probably skeleton "staff" on a roster, so it's no use complaining.
I reckon it ain't going back to the way the old GUI was, Win 10 is just around the corner, so why should they care what we say ?
There will always be new users of CC and they would never have known the difference and complaints will eventually dwindle.

Granted I was looking at it in win 8.1but, to those still on XP or vista or 7, windows has moved on from tablet/notebook killing skeuomorphic design , not only that but nearly every major GUI development (apple, android) have chosen the same direction. I have to agree with twistedmetal's assessment that version 3 of ccleaner also had a gui push-back, but I personally feel some of these GUI hating threads contain some posters who are being melodramatic about it.
Ok, a valid point, I am still on XP and have no intentions of moving on
My finger is on the button though to go to Linux if Win 10 MS does not lift their game.

Prefer the old GUI, Thanks.

Most of the options are here,
http://superuser.com/questions/450014/clearmytracksbyprocess-all-options
Some of the VBA code/options to use is;
Sub Clear_IE()Shell "RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 8", vbHideAppActivate "Microsoft Excel"End SubHowever, this is "old", it does not seem to compensate for Chrome, after checking with CCleaner, the Chrome folders are still full.The reason this needs to be done in VBA is because of web queries within a Loop in real time, the caches etc become full.Ideally, if VBA can run CCleaner with user settings without having to stop and do it manually.obviously adjust accordingly.Adjust what ? -
Meanwhile, have you tried the fount of all wisdom - The Internet?
Yes.
The reply was to ask here, at this forum.

Is there or has anyone coded Excel VBA to run CCleaner ?
The reason is because Excel hangs when doing continuous web queries and we don't want to have to stop the process and use CCleaner every ~ 15 minutes or so.
Thanks

Bill and Linus have become friends ?
A new OS, "BLIN" !!

Went through the motions from http://support.googl...n&answer=111899
May not have applied to my pc exactly. But the instructions showed enough stuff to Delete everything and anything that had Google in it. Along the way in some instances Google renames stuff, somewhere I read they do this with each update so to avoid and slip by firewall settings. Myth or not, my computer has a new name now, "snappy" !
It's like everything works much faster, boot up is no longer as if it's dragging a wet blanket.
I don't use IE or Firefox, everything works fine now.
And thanks CCleaner's team.

I'll give it a go,
Thanks

The uninstall function does not seem to work in either cc or windows own uninstall, nor does the
uninstall function work from google's own uninstall command
When searching the net, I read heaps of stuff but it gets rather technical.
It seems many are having this problem
Can CC be able to uninstall Google Chrome ?
CCleaner version: 3.28.1913
OS Win XP Pro. Version 2002
Service Pack 3
Thanks
Give an option for the old GUI (this is the sole topic for requesting the old GUI)

Wasting my time, I am progressively migrating everything to LInux, no longer interested with MS_BS.
It's about time we all stand up to corporations, not only MS, but many cos they are the ones who pull the strings, no matter who is in politics, left, right, centre, any political party flavor of the month, the corps probably have a say what gets posted here to.
Not with the Open Source crowd, it's freedom, but then again, for how long before the corps find a way to "own" every piece of internet real-estate, ???
And google is a player to.
So to limit garbage in, it may help to use this as a search engine, cos I know the difference, my CCleaner has much less to clean since I stopped using google
Try this as your search engine
