Is there a website that has all the recommended post options **Beta** that have been recommended after the winapp2.ini official release date. or do you need to just read through all the post? and just so I understand when someone makes a post inexample... you just add this to the winapp2.ini and it cleans this location if it exist on your system?

Perhaps a silly question, but I was wanting to know if the winapp2.ini only cleans temps, logs, temporary internet files, left behind with all applications in its custom ini file..., When I ran the ccleaner with the winapp2.ini under applications it had a lot of entries... Lots.. plus took forever to launch, which I read could be reduced by running the trimbat file. But I was unsure what was cleaned by checking them, I didn't want it to delete my app, or remove any needed information for the application to run successfully. I also don't want to loose any specific profile settings, especially those entries with the * referenced by them.... I would give examples, but there is a lot to list... Furthermore: I was wanting to know if these Microsoft Locations are included in the ccleaner winapp2.ini and if they are all safe for cleanup -- like I said I don't want application runtime issues, or errors to happen... just cleanup of the junk.... Here are some Microsoft locations I found, can you kindly respond with which ones are included in latest winapp2, if its safe to clean, and which ones should not be touched.... Along with the orginal question about what all the winapp2.ini cleans... I don't need all the applications, I can see those, I just need to know if it cleans the temps, and etc.. or does it delete actual programs and or files that would cause it to not run right....Please and thank you... #Inetpub C:\inetpub\temp\IIS Temporary Compressed Files C:\inetpub\temp\ #CCM C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\CCM\Temp C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\CCM\CIAgent\Temp C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\CCM\CIAgent\Temp\CIDefnDownloads C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\CCM\Inventory\Temp C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\CCM\Inventory\Temp\FileColl C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\CCM\Metering\Temp C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\CCM\ServiceData\Temp #Temp C:\WINDOWS\Temp\ C:\Temp #Web Extentions C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\LOGS\ # Any User Profile C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files #NetworkService C:\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\Local Settings\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\NetworkService\AppData\Local\Temp C:\Users\NetworkService\AppData\Local\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\NetworkService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files #SystemProfile C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Local Settings\Temp C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Local Settings\Temp C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files C:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Temp C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\Local\Temp #Default C:\Documents and Settings\Default\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\Default\Local Settings\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\Default\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Temp C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files #DefaultAppPool C:\Documents and Settings\DefaultAppPool\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\DefaultAppPool\Local Settings\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\DefaultAppPool\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\DefaultAppPool\AppData\Local\Temp C:\Users\DefaultAppPool\AppData\Local\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\DefaultAppPool\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files #Classic .NET C:\Documents and Settings\Classic .NET AppPool\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\Classic .NET AppPool\Local Settings\Temp C:\Documents and Settings\Classic .NET AppPool\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\Classic .NET AppPool\AppData\Local\Temp C:\Users\Classic .NET AppPool\AppData\Local\Temporary Internet Files C:\Users\Classic .NET AppPool\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files #PCHealth C:\WINDOWS\PCHealth\HelpCtr\Temp #RAC C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\RAC\Temp C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\RAC\Temp #Search C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Search\Data\Temp C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Search\Data\Temp # Assembly\NativeImages Net v2.0 \Temp C:\Windows\assembly\NativeImages_v2.0.50727_32\Temp C:\Windows\assembly\NativeImages_v2.0.50727_64\Temp # Assembly\NativeImages Net v4.0 \Temp C:\Windows\assembly\NativeImages_v4.0.30319_32\Temp C:\Windows\assembly\NativeImages_v4.0.30319_64\Temp #WinSXS C:\Windows\winsxs\Temp C:\Windows\winsxs\Temp\PendingDeletes C:\Windows\winsxs\Temp\PendingRenames #DriverStore C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\Temp #System Center Operations Manager 2007 C:\Program Files\System Center Operations Manager 2007\Health Service State\Monitoring Host Temporary Files # .Net Framework Net v2.0 \Temporary ASP.NET Files C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files # .Net Framework Net v4.0 \Temporary ASP.NET Files C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files

in your example you still have to set the path == what I am say, is it would be hard work to list all the possible paths.. I get what you are saying on avoiding removing some temps and logs. But in the use case, say its a Temporary Internet folder... yet you still don't know all the paths or directoris. so aside from do a dir then findstr with the exact perimeters then sending to a file. I was thinking of using possible the for /F and do del /f or rmdir /f But what I am uncertain is, if it scans through every directory. havenbt research the possibity of add the "\<Temporary\>" to the (......) entry or even add a txt file with a list of possible paths. file: "\<Temporary\>" or *Temporary* example: for /F "delims=" %i in (dir /s /ad |findstr "\<Temporary\>") do del /f %I for /F "delims=" %i in (dir /s /ad |findstr "\<Temporary\>") do rmdir /s /q %I or via file for /F "delims=" %i in (path to include.txt) do del /f %I I am not at the location to give this a test.. but though I would write it down for discussion and though The question is can ccleaner do something like this within its interface, or possibly add a vbscript or powershell that does the muscle, then it just cleans the directories that was found. IDK... Just a though.... Hoping to advance the product and take care of some issues too. : )

In your example "Include1=PATH|%APPDATA%\Adobe\Flash Player\AssetCache\|*.*|RECURSE" It is using the environment variable APPDATA then path adobe \ flash\ AssetCache\ etc.... What I am asking is does ccleaner use variables in its app... not using the variables in windows environmental settings. The next is using the ccleaner application variable or custom winapp2.ini or ccleaner.ini to "Include1=PATH|{{ANY TEMP FOLDER}} THE ANY TEMP FOLDER would be the custom variable that you place on the drive.... I just don't know how to do it, and if it allows. So if I said scan "Include1=PATH|{{ANY TEMP FOLDER}} |*.*|RECURSE" It would find the Temp folder in location c:\someuser\downloads\saved\custom\whoknows\why\]whenwillwe\okaylets\TEMP\*.* In the above made up example, I wouldnt know where that temp directory was without a lot of searching... and there are ton of these TEMP folders without knowing its full directory PATH... So I am asking if ccleaner allows something that says scan for all %TEMP FOLDERS% and recursively delete all files within... No matter where they are located on the drive... Hope that further describes my question. Also what .logs or Temps should not be removed.

In my example, I ran dir /s /ad |findstr "\<Temp\>" from command line... This reported directores with Temp, didn't show Template, or Temprary files,,, That why I made it "\<Temp\>" Can you give me an example of how you could do this in CCleaner custom files or via the ccleaner.ini How can you configure variables, expressions, and etc in Includexxx=Path

(1) Can ccleaner either using the include custom folders or the ccleaner.ini Includexxx=Path| (Variable) |*.*|RECURSE Can it Clean using variables, where you do not know the complete path... You just know its a folder named XYZ somewhere on the drive? It could be anywhere.... Use case senario: I have a file server that has user profiles... and etc... The thing is over the years, people made copies of their profiles and stuck them in unknown directories all over the place.. and I mean all over the place, could be named copy, could be named new folder, could be named top secret...goes on and on, and hundreds of folders deep.... So without knowing the complete directory structure, path, or tree. Is there a way to just clean any directory named |"<\Temp\>" no matter where it resides? ^\Temp ~\Temp %\Temp\% \Temp\*.* I did a search -- But the search takes forever and bombs out... File server has several Terabytes of data... And Tons and Tons of temps, hidden in stupid locations all over the place... (2) Are all Temp and Log directories created equal? I mean are there any ones that you should NOT Clean? and if you do bad things happen?
