  1. Yes CCleaner will find/clear more of them than Edge will itself.
    That's because Edge will not clear Microsoft's own cookies, but CCleaner will.

    As for Trackers they are not what you or I would call 'Trackers', they are a type of cookie called a 'Tracking Cookie'.

    See here for more of an explanation:

     

  2. The latest CCleaner version, released yesterday, now has a switch included for turning off Edge preloading:

    Edge Chromium & browser cleaning improvements

    • Added full support for Microsoft’s new Edge Chromium browser
    • Fixed a bug in Google Earth cache cleaning
    • If requested, CCleaner can now disable ‘Preloading’ in old Edge (allows complete cleaning)

     They have an impeccable reputation.  

     

    Offering downloads of software before it is officially released is not reputable behaviour in anybodys book, and it's certainly not 'impeccable'.

    (Impeccable - In accordance with the higest standards; faultless).

  4. Whilst it can tell you what is taking up the space it can't tell if you want it to take up that space or not.

    Mine shows the files, but obviously only I know if I want them or not.

    Are you seeing something different?

  5. I tend to use Windows built in clipping tool these days, it puts clips straight into the clipboard and if you higlight things that goes in the clipboard too.

    Then just paste it into the post (right click or ctrl+v)

  6. It is probably something in your firewall settings (anti-virus) that is blocking it.

    Try making CCleaner an exception in your AV, or if you have custom firewall settings check what they are blocking.

    Health Check is meant for non-technical users. (Think granny who doesn't know anything about computers apart from that she can see the grandkids on Skype).

    If you are more technically minded then use Custom Clean which gives more control.

    EDIT not sure about the screenshot thing, is that alt+prtscr? I'll have a look when I get back to a computer instead of a phone.

    Both sites are reputable sites.


    I would hardly call offering a software download before it has been officially released reputable behaviour.

    As it isn't officially released yet then who knows what may be in those unofficial downloads?

  8. You have replied to a four year old thread.

    Please check the date of the last post before replying.

    Edge pre-loading of that cache should be resolved in the next CCleaner version due this week.

    I will lock this old thread.

  9. It will depend on the size of the drive that you are recovering files to.

    You shouldn't recover to the drive they were deleted from as that could/would overwrite what you are trying to recover.

    Of course the more you do the longer it will take.
