Does this new version fully support Safari 4 beta?

Thanks MrG! :)

Just wondering if the 'Wipe free space' drive selection box is supposed to have this layout:

or it should be a dropdown menu, since as is it's quite uncomfortable to use :unsure:

Thanks Piriform... I like the new changes (0-100% progress bar and wiping of disk free space). Keep it up!

Mine looks just like yours. Maybe in the next version, Piriform can make the scroll down box customizable so that users with more than 1-2 drives can make the height of the box larger. Just a suggestion.

Thanks MrG. for listening us ;)

UPDATE: you guys should take a chance to read this: http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=20631

What a terrific update MrG.

Must ask if the Free Space Wipe has any negative effect on files already on the drive? One cannot afford to lose data :) As a suggestion-it would be useful to include a message for new users about this/

Keep up the great work.

What does wiping disk free space actually do?

I have just updated the new version. I would like to know when I use the Startup section under Tools, what the difference is between Disable and Delete. I know it should be obvious, but what I want to do is stop so many things running in the background and slowing down my computer. So basically can I use this section for that and does Delete get rid of it from the computer. Which of course we dont want. :rolleyes: And obviously as you can all see I know diddlesquat about the innards of computers, and would hate to delete something I shouldn't. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Thank you so much hazelnut, and such a speedy reply. I have read it through and it explains it perfectly...I have bookmarked that page too. :D

The half visible options on the settings page you can fix yourself guys.

Just drag the bottom edge of CCleaner down a touch until it appears properly.

It retains the new dimensions.

I don't get the percentage progress bar.

What do you mean exactly? Can you post a screenshot?

The only differences I see in relation to the progress bar are that it completes in one line and doesn't repeat. I don't see a percentage number.

This is normal, there isn't a numbered percentage display, just one pass of the indicator now. 0 to 100%

I love this program but since I downloaded and installed the newest version it starts running then quits and closes on its own. I have removed and reinstalled it several times

Under options >advanced Keath, do you have ''close program after cleaning'' ticked?

Thanks MrG! :)

You have to make the window larger to see that part of it (I'm sure that they'll fix it in the next version)
