Fails to clean Chrome Internet History & Cookies. (4.18.4844)

Why are Chrome Internet History and Chrome Cookies marked as 'skipped' after a clean?

This is a sudden recent happening, as I've been a user of CCeaner for years without a problem.

I followed all of TwistedMetal's instructions for a workaround in a previous locked thread, but no luck.

I have checked the boxes to allow CCleaner to remove them and am stumped.

Thanks

Chrome probably isn't fully closed, that's usually why.

Read this topic for a possible fix:

Edit:

I should've read your whole post stating you already tried what's in the link above.

Are any Chrome .exe processes showing in Task Manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL)?

Thanks, yes I have 5 Chrome.exe processes showing.

Is it safe to end process on these?

According to the dialogue box my computer may become unstable.

Yes it safe to end the process. CCleaner cant clean the cache of firefox or Chrome without those browsers being closed.

Okay, this time I tried to delete unwanted cookies (left column) manually one at a time and was asked if I wanted to close Chrome.

I answered yes and proceeded to delete first one. I then restarted CCleaner and ran cleaner.

The analysis showed that this time history and cookies were not skipped and 353 cookies were deleted along with 6 history files.

Except when I look in the cookies I don't want column, they are still there!!!!

I have a screenshot of results if you'd like to see it.

edit: Have just gone through the whole process again and Voila! this time the cookies and history have gone and the cookies column is empty!!?? Should mention here that I did restart CCleaner and also rebooted my computer.

I suppose I'll keep monitoring and see what happens.

Thanks for help to forum mavens.

Yes chrome is staying open in the first to cases and had yet to start in the last.

In chrome turn off background services and you'll likely not observe the skipping
