  1. Just in case anyone stumbles across this thread, as I did, looking for a solution... I tried this and it seems to work. Open the file in Notepad, Select All, Delete and Save. Open file properties and tick Read Only. File remains on the system by stays at zero bytes. Note that you also need to tell Ccleaner not to delete this file, otherwise it will by default and Windows will recreate the full size version.
  2. Perhaps it is associated with Windows Defender, but not "cloud-based protection" as I had that disabled. When CC is clearing Temp files etc there is no noticeable delay. It's only when clearing Custom File and Folders that the problem occurs. Is CC "accessing" these files in a different way for deletion, compared to Explorer delete, and thereby triggering Defender?
  3. We already have recognition and clean-up of Vuze application related dross. BigyBT (https://www.biglybt.com/) is a popular and much cleaner branch of the original Vuze/Azureus codebase and therefore it should be simple to include recognition and clean-up of its files to, hopefully.
  4. Despite having Secure Deletion option set to Normal (Faster) it's taking 15-18 minutes to delete the thumbnail cache (about 3Gb in 1,700 files) of an old version Paintshop Pro using Custom File and Folders in Custom Clean, compared to 1-2 minutes in Explorer. The files aren't being "wiped" as I can still restore them with Recuva, they appear to just be normally deleted, veeerrrrryyyy ssslllloooowwwyyy... I did notice some increase in activity from Windows Defender during the deletion, which could be a clue, or a red herring
