[2 days and still Deleting Windows.old Files and 32 passes with CC Cleaner]

  Oh crud 

[2 days and still Deleting Windows.old Files and 32 passes with CC Cleaner]

I am going through a cleanup and I had chosen to delete the Windows.old files.

 

I heard that they would be deleted in 30 days anyway through other literature that I had read.  But I bit the bullet because everything looked okay with Windows 10 and decided to include the Windows.old files within CC Cleaners routine.

 

It has been 2 days and it is still at 42%.     It is moving still... but still moving albeit verrrrry slow...lol.

 

I realize that 32 passes takes longer... how much longer should I expect to wait for this thing to get done.  Because I should probably restart my computer at some point...lol.

 

Thanks,

["The operation has been completed. Some of the selected files were not deleted."]

Got this message when trying to delete some duplicate files using the Duplicate Finder feature.  (I did "tick" the duplicate files I wanted to delete, as it would not allow me to check all of them)

 

"The operation has been completed. Some of the selected files were not deleted."

 

As you can guess not all the files were deleted.

 

Here is the .txt file that I saved that gives a snapshot of the Duplicate Finder Log (if you want to call it that persay...lol)

The rest of the files contain family names because they are .jpg's saved and I am not going to post that.  However, these files are coming from the Seagate Dashboard on the external hard drive that I am using from them for my computer backup.

 

What gives?  Did I do something wrong?

[double file searcher]

The duplicate file finder I use also lists the original and the duplicate files and places a "tick" in the box of the file that can be deleted if required.

 

If you have searched for "exact duplicate" name/size/date created etc. it does not matter which one is deleted. My software app always places a "tick" in the box of the first listed one. 

 

 

Is the duplicate file finder that you use CC Cleaner?  Methinks it is not.... because when I use (I am a noob user of CC Cleaner Pro as of yesterday) CC Cleaner it does not "tick" anything for me.

 

Can CC cleaner do what your suggesting?
