Win7 SP1 64bit
Firefox 41
Ccleaner 5.10.5373 (64 bit)
Often, but not always, CCleaner will clear some, but not all of my unwanted cookies. For example, I had 54 cookies. The Cleaner Analysis and Cleaning found and cleared 5 of them. I went to Options> Cookies and the remaining 48 cookies were still on the left side. I selected all of these unwanted cookies, right clicked and deleted all of them. I went to another section of CCleaner, then came back and the 48 cookies were there again.
I ran the Cleaning analysis again and it found nothing. So far, the only way around this problem has been to restart my PC, then run CCleaner> Cleaning immediately after startup. The unwanted 48 cookies were found and deleted as they should be. I've been using CCleaner for a long time and this behavior just started with this current version and with Firefox 40 (and 41).
I use CCleaner several times per day, mostly to clear the Firefox cache and clean out unwanted cookies. I do this especially before and after online banking, and after visiiting "questionable" websites. In case there are questions, here's my standard procedure:
1. Close Firefox, Windows Explorer and any other apps that might be affected by CCleaner's operation.
2. Start CCleaner, then glance at the cookies in Options> Cookies.
3. Click Registry, analyze, backup anything found (seldom), then fix as needed.
4. Click Cleaner, run the Analysis, briefly review the results, then Clean.
5. Now I've started going back to Options> Cookies to ensure that all were cleaned out. They're usually gone, but not always, and that's the problem.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a fix (other than rebooting the PC)? Or should I just consider this to be a bug report?
Any helpful suggestions will be most appreciated.
Thanks!
