It hasn't been fixed, as I said in my post above CC is not detecting one of the Flash player cookie files.
Well I'm sorry but thats why I made this topic and the latest 2.21.940 as fixed it for me. Do you have your Adobe Flash Player ticked?

Of course, always have had. Have you checked (on an XP system?) if the cookie file I mentioned is deleted? It certainly isn't here (I found sites listed in it that I haven't visited for quite some time) and would explain the other posters also experiencing not all flash cookies being removed.

Well as I've said before the last version that deleted ALL cookies was 2.18.878. Install that for a quick run to see what happens. I never have my Adobe Flash Player ticked.

Hmmm, interesting. 2.18 does delete that Flash cookie file. Looked at the changelog for 2.19 and it says "Added support for Flash Cookies"?! So it cleaned all Flash cookies before, they added Flash cookie support and now it doesn't clean them all
Welcome to Piriform goom.
Yes, well if you read my comments above you will find that CC 2.18.878 was that last version that cleaned ALL cookies. The later ones do if you check the Adobe Flash Player. This has been fixed on the latest CC 2.21.940.
If you no longer have them on your computer how can CC delete them?
i just meant they were still in the list.
i'm not sure why, that's why i was asking.
i'm positive they're not on my computer, though. (i manually browsed through 'cookie manager' looking for the ones in the list)
i have adobe flash player unchecked, but i've never had this issue before.
are you positive i need to check it?
(i unchecked it a while ago - it deleted some game-save files i needed.)
thanks for the quick response.

Then I would guess they are probably Flash cookies as these (AFAIK) don't show up with regular cookies on your computer.
You could do a search on your computer for all 'settings.sol' files and temporarily delete the ones in Flash folders to the recycle bin then open CCleaner and see if the cookies are still showing up in CC's cookie list. Theres no damage done then as you can safely restore the files from the recycle bin afterwards.

You could add your game saves to CCleaners "Exclude" feature. "CCleaner\Option\Include File or Folder".
I have a couple of Flash Cookie folders excluded from:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys
and
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys
This enables me to clear everything else from those locations, including the "settings.sol" file JD mentions above.

Um, Dennis, surely you mean exclude

thank you very much, i'll try that right now.

Spot on JD. I'll alter that just in case someone doesn't get this far down the thread.

You need it checked on versions 2.19.889, 2.19.900, 2.19.901 and 2.20.920. On 2.18.878 you don't need it checked and it cleans ALL cookies and on the lastest 2.21.940 you don't need it checked this bug as been fixed, well it as for me.
forgot to thank you guys.
it's working fine now.
