Just because you asked: v. 5.20.5668
Windows OS: Windows 7 Professional, service pack 1
And I haven't changed anything, really, in several years. I have to reinstall the drivers for my Wacom Cintiq 21 from time to time, but I pretty much go with what I have and I do a lot of graphics work as I am an artist, selling my designs via Print on Demand sites.
I was surprised when suddenly, it seemed, after CCleaner summary showed just the regular dump of files, cookies, etc., for years, it started showing these humongous numbers of IE files being "cleaned" numerous times per day. I wondered what on Earth was IN them??? And I do mean upwards of 100,000 files (not bytes) each time I ran the CCleaner in a day. . .that is why I Googled a question about it and discovered that IE was involved in many "operations" of our computers even though we may not be using IE as our Browser of choice.
Now, of course when it all STOPPED again, and CCleaner has reverted to just dumping the good old numbers of files, cookies, etc., again rarely mentioning removing a file or two from IE, I am wondering if those transactions previously dumped are perhaps STILL retained on my computer? You see, there are two sides to this. . .
Thanks, for your input, mta . . .
