Note: I don't mean to discourage the reader from continuing here entirely, but the core of my post is essentially covered by information in the Ccleaner Forum Sticky, RE: a file named "winapp2.ini". Although i've yet to investigate winapp2.ini on my own system, and it's not defined in the sticky (but for a URL), I suspect it must be located as any other .INI might be; in the program folder, or under %APPDATA%, or one or two other places-- shouldn't be difficult to locate. Also (as is the nature of .INI files), i presume this is precisely the sort of thing I'd come to the forum to discuss-- more or less: the content of my post reflects my wish to report of finding certain data after a Ccleaner run; to propose adding to Ccleaner's other application options, the very popular S/FTP client for Windows, Filezilla
Hi. This forum post arrives, very much delayed from when I had originally recognized the issue, and recorded some screen caps, etc. As with much of what I do, I never got around to actually sharing my thoughts, although I believe the content is relatively important-- at least for readers to consider.
Some time ago, I found-- on executing Filezilla, the freeware desktop S/FTP client for Windows-- directly after Ccleaner had swept the system, some auto-complete dialogue prompts did appear, containing the last several [ extrapolate ] , which i'd used for the respective file transfers. It occurred to me that much of what Ccleaner does excellent work of destroying at runtime is less critical than what Filezilla stores-- albeit, value is subject in this context.
I did some sort-of side-by-side comparisons between Ccleaner and its software repository brethren, of which there are many. That I continue to use Ccleaner is telling of my observation: for the common user, Ccleaner is as efficient as other options in the category of "Wipe your system clean to gain wasted space, improve performance, and 'eliminate' traces of activity for improved privacy", not to mention-- the [optional?] Ccleaner / Recycle-Bin context-menu integrated option to "Run Ccleaner" is most practical for quickly cleaning junk-files. (i.e. it performs a secure cleaning pass without excessively taxing the system resources, etc., blah, blah)
