Cleaning.

I bought a new computer recently with windows 8.1. CCleaner worked perfectly on the older computer with windows XP.

On the new computer this a typical example of what usually happens.

First after running CCleaner it reads

(1)Cleaning complete.

10 MB Removed.

Details files removed.

then (2) Cleaning complete.

Applications for McAfee anti-virus.

1KB 1File.

(3) Cleaning complete.

0 bytes removed.

(4) Cleaning complete.

Details files removed.

Windows MS 1KB 1File

and this process usually continues.

Could this mean CCleaner is still working well, the above is of no importance, and the glitch is in my desktop computer?

To cut a long story short CCleaner does not appear to delete all files on the first run.

I hope someone can help on the above question.

Basically Ccleaner seems unable to delete files such as

1) IE temporary internet files,

2) Windows MS Search.

3) Applications for McAfee anti virus and sometimes other files altho' often it announces 0 bytes have to be removed and then, after another run, apparently has to delete the same files again.

I repeat, is this likely to be simply a glitch on my new computer with Windows 8.1?

Are you running ccleaner either with UAC elevation or the SkipUAC setting (in ccleaner) enabled?

While it should not effect the examples are the temp file (ccleaner) settings set to only clean older than 24 hours (recyclebin and temp directory are the only ones this covers though, I think.

The McAfee maybe isn't deleting because McAfee is using it.
