I am using Bitkiller, small portable program: https://sourceforge.net/projects/bitkiller/

Hello,
I still missing this function in CCleaner. There is secure delete for everything in options and wipe free space, but no file shredder for selected files and folders only.
I dont need secure delete everything i have checked in CCleaner, also wipe free space heavily stress HDD.
So with file shredder will be CCleaner complete.
For now i must use another program to doing this.
-
Please remove this bloatware from free version. I always need to wait until CCleaner check for updates when I need use Tool tab.
Or just move it lower in Tools tab to fix this delay. I know CCleaner is now owned by Avast so here must be tons of bloat and popups.
-
So what is wrong? Chrome should delete those files by self? Should i delete them or leave it? But i have still more those files.
-
Thank you for answer, but i dont know puprose of those files or if they can be deleted.

Hello,
my default folder is now full of .ldb files. I dont know if is normal or not, but i have much more those files each time i look to this folder. Should it be cleaned?
-
So strange, on virustotal Avira detect nothing. So any explanation from CCleaner?
-
Use brain if possible, one unknown AV says Trojan, while other famous AVs detect nothing, that will be false positive for sure.
-
Yes that is paradox. Program used from removing crap, is now crap by self. Adding new still runing process, previous version had Adware. Just like Avast which is Adware and Bloatware in one product.

Is not bug at all, just Piriform need telemetry from everyone so is forced to enable it again if you disable it.
-
I still dont understand why you block CCleaner in firewall. I want disable monitoring because is another still running process, which can cause longer system bootup etc.
So if you let him already running, so there is no reason block it in firewall. It send useful data to Piriform which they can use for bug fixing. If you bloick it in firewall, your process run completely useless.
-
Delete or disable is the same. But if you delete it, you cannot enable it again without reinstallation CCleaner.
-
You probably not deleted CCleaner64.exe/Monitor, not disabled ccupdate task or you just forgot untick monitoring and tray icon in settings. Make sure you have also unchecked start CCleaner with PC startup. You can also rename CCupdate.exe to something else, but if you disable that task correctly, this is not needed.
BTW this version is better for me, because now clean faster (No IE stuck anymore) and not caused any ESENT error yet, which was pretty common before this version.
-
You probably doing something wrong. For me this working perfectly.
The key of re-enabling is ccupdate task. So i if you disable it, it cannot enable monitoring again.
-
You have to open Windows (not CCleaner) Task Scheduler. This task is hidden but Task Scheduler shows hidden task by default.
-
Disable CCupdate task which causing re-enabling monitoring.
-
Better solution:
-
This executable can also change your CCleaner settings and add new entries to startup.
Last version 5.45.6611 is famous for it. CCupdate.exe always add CCleaner64.exe/Monitor to Startup entries and change value in registry "Monitoring" from "0" to "1".
That is completely wrong. This executable should only check for security updates, but it should not change anything in our PC's.
-
1.Disable Active monitoring, System monitoring in options. Also disable CCleaner tray icon.
2.Remove CCleaner64.exe/Monitor (or CCleaner.exe/Monitor) from startup entries.
3.Disable "CCleaner Update" task in Task Scheduler.
4.Restart PC
Now is monitoring permanently disabled.
-
At least slow cleaning IE was fixed in this version.
-
Last couple of versions CCleaner has too many issues and bugs. It should be good make beta version to find most bugs before final release.
-
Same for me. +1

4 hours ago, Nergal said:
it shouldn't be re-enabling itself
I have found this:
After CCleaner update task shedule (scheduled 8 min after PC start) CCleaner.exe/monitor is added to start entries. If i run CCleaner before CCupdate, all monitoring is disabled. But if i run CCleaner after CCupdate, 2x CCleaner.exe start and after program close one will remain (also active monitoring now ticked in options). That start entry is added without need run program itself, that doing purely by CCupdate.
Workaround:
1.Disable all monitoring in options.
2.Remove CCleaner.exe/Monitor from startup entries.
3.Disable CCupdate task in task manager.
4.Restart PC
Now monitoring will stay disabled.

You are wrong.
I removed it from my start list, also unchecked all monitoring options. But after pc restart, i opened my CClener and after some time monitoring is again enabled with new start item.
New Start tab: Windows services - please explain
in CCleaner

Hello,
there is option enable or disable, dont understand this. In Windows service manager i can choose from Automatic, Automatic Delayed, manual or disabled.
If i disable some service and enable it again, CCleaner remeber last state for example that service was automatic delayed? Or it just do mess in my system?
CCleaner says some of my services are disabled, but they actually running. Disabled means they are not set to automatic? Manual is counted as disabled?
Thanks for explanation.
