Sorry if this can be answered simply, but i have looked and cannot find, how to get back to original clean settings for windows7? Or are there any recomended settings?
Is there also a list of recomendations for the settings for each windows operating sytem?
Do you mean the default at install settings?
You can right-click on each sub heading in the list (system, advanced, windows explorer etc, and select restore default state.
No list of recommendations Hamish, there is some info here though on what each setting does in the documentation.
Never use "Wipe Free space", unless you just deleted files you wanted to delete using a secure deletion.
Never clean "Old Prefetch data", this will slow down Windows. http://www.edbott.com/weblog/?p=743
If you want CCleaner to include files you chose in the Include section, clean "Custom Files and Folders".
