[Backup REG-files placed on Desktop?!]

@ Nergal

Wow!  After using CCleaner for so long, I never realized this.... I just clicked on "Yes", "Save" etcetera.

I expected a "Save to folder"-setting somewhere, but I couldn't find it....duh! 

Thanks for bringing me back to earth: making me more aware of my movements around the app!

 

Cool name BTW.... Nergal.

@ Nergal

First of all, thanks for your reply and YES you're right the default folder is indeed C:\Users\<userprofile>\Documents. 

My question however is:  HOW or WHERE does one select a different folder, inadvertently or otherwise? 

[Backup REG-files placed on Desktop?!]

Hi everyone,

I am a longtime user of CCleaner, but I am new to this forum.
I know that CCleaner creates REG-files i.g. "cc_20211009_170116.reg" if the Registry cleaner has been activated.
So far so good!
But lately (I think since v5.85.9170) these REG-files are placed on the Desktop instead of C:\Users\<userprofile>\ !!

How is this possible and more importantly: WHY?

Does anybody have any ideas?
