- Redesign CCleaner tabs - Applications | Internet | Windows - Navigation is easier when -> Applications (3rd party apps) | Internet (all web browsers) | Windows (All Windows locations)
- Collapsible menus - Currently, there is no way to collapse Firefox options, Internet Explorer options, Windows Explorer options. User sees all options instead of being able to collapse them.
- Autosize windows - Automatically shrink CCleaner to fit the new collapsed icons. Hiding (collapsing) the options under Internet Explorer makes it take up far less space. Great for portable.
- Startup Tab - Show icons of programs under Startup tab -> Make it easier to identify what to remove.
- Startup Tab - Collapse startup results into groups -> Make it easier to identify what to remove.
- Startup Tab - Include ALL startup locations -> BHO | Tasks Folder | User Run. Many newer programs abuse the tasks folder startup.
- Hosts File - Include ability to delete any non-default hosts entry. Hosts file is no different from Startup locations needing cleaning.
- Registry - Show icons of registry clean results -> Make it easier to identify what to remove.
- Registry - Collapse registry clean results into groups -> Make it easier to identify what to remove.
- Registry - Include a find as you type search feature that can show all items matching a search term.
- Registry - Cleaner seems to miss a lot of files that no longer exist. It could be stronger in this area.
- Registry - Many boards have users complaining of the dangers of allowing casual users to take out "Unused File Extensions" under registry cleaner. I agree. Take it out, please.
- Custom Folders -> Include option to delete registry keys too
- Custom Folders -> Include option to delete not just files in a folder, but folders too. Example: AVG folder is safe to remove. All options are accessible from tray icon, anyway.
(Just protect the default system start menu items such as Startup/Accessories/Games + system folders like C:\Windows, C:\Windows\System32 etc.)
- Include a Launch button next to Remove under System Restore control -> Make it easier to launch & run System Restore (run command restore/rstrui - Works all windows platforms)
- Include option under advanced to turn off warning on first run that CCleaner deletes files permanently. I feel like a dummy having to checkmark it the first time I run it.
- Checkmark the save to .Ini by default. Why write to the registry (by default)?
- Include a "Default All" setting -> Sometimes users check a lot of things & forget the default settings. Make it easy, please.
- Include right-click uninstall option to program shortcuts when CCleaner is open. CCleaner would remove these when closed (retain portability).
- Include right-click option in uninstall tab to navigate to the file you have selected. Great for seeing what *strange file name* is.
* CCleaner does NOT update the uninstall list automatically if you are running CCleaner while installing a program. I hate having to close, then open CCleaner to update...
Comments welcome.
