  1. That's a shame it does that with Win 10, but it also means CCleaner is no longer functional for space-saving in Win 8 if you have to go into system clean-up files anyway. (It might still have use for privacy and whatnot but I'm the only user of this machine and that doesn't matter to me).

  2. Hi. I'm on a Win 8.1 notebook with limited C drive space so I need to keep it clear. My free space took a massive tumble downwards so I investigated and tried to clean. CCleaner got the usual suspects (e.g. browser cache, yes I know I can move that away) but even so that was only a few hundred MB and not the real problem. Turns out it was a big Windows update.

    Thing is CCleaner doesn't seem to erase old updates correctly?

    I had to go to C drive Properties, Disk Clean-Up, then Clean Up System Files. The "Windows Update Clean-Up" had a gig and a half or so in it.

    Is it by intention CCleaner does not do the various System File clean-ups? Is it is a bug? Should CCleaner at least offer an option to open the System File clean-up if it doesn't do it itself?

     

     

  3. I just had an issue where my EBay would not proceed to checkout. I tried on two browsers (Chrome, Explorer on Win 8.1) and I did a CCleaner; so I looked to see if anyone else had experienced this issue. I found the issue, from an Admin CMD   ipconfig /flushdns

    Worked beautifully.

    Honestly this is the first time I've ever had to do this, I'm not entirely certain what it is, and I don't think I need to - but is a DNS Flush a good potential option for CCleaner?
