I hate Adobe, so years ago I added this to "Includes" and they now appear in my CCleaner.ini as
Include1=PATH|%APPDATA%\Adobe\Flash Player\AssetCache\|*.*|RECURSE
Include2=PATH|%APPDATA%\Macromedia\Flash Player\|*.*|RECURSE
That gets rid of so much unwanted junk, including some files that each exceed 100 kBytes
Regretably one site that used to remember me is now unable to remember me.
I cleaned all cookies and logged in to the site and out again.
I returned and it remembered me, and I logged out again.
I had several new cookies, none of which came from the site.
With Notepad I inspected the contents of the "anonymous" settings.sol and saw the name of my site.
I cleaned that cookie and again my chosen site could not remember me.
The idiots in charge had changed from using a site specific "proper" Firefox cookie to Adobe Trash.
I formally protested and they have promised a review and a response later this month.
This is the wretched cookie which I had been cleaning :-
C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys\settings.sol
To temporarily preserve the idiots memory I added this "exclude"
Exclude1=FILE|C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys\|settings.sol.
Then I could clean cookies and settings.sol survived and the idiots site was able to remember me.
After that I noticed that after running CCleaner I could Analyze and some cookies survived.
They had been appended to "global" settings.sol.
The idiots still lose their memory, because it is not reserved for them and many other sites throw in a bit more, probably as per session cookies.
I also see my microphone settings get a mention ![:rolleyes:]()
It is currently only 564 bytes in size, and although I have not recently cleaned it,
my site's name is no longer present and my site no longer remembers me.
Settings.sol now commences with
settings gain @I echosuppression defaultmicrophone
defaultcamera
defaultklimit @Y
defaultalways windowlessDisable autoUpdateDisabled autoUpdateDefaultUpdated autoUpdateInterval @
I am guessing that Settings.sol gets "cleaned" by fresh "settings",
possibly on a reboot or as a result of my "speakers" volume control in the notification tray.
I have decided that this specific exclude does not preserve what I want, so the exclude is going.
Good bye settings.sol, good bye idiotic site ![:)]()
