Google Chrome Kindle books erased when running Ccleaner

CCleaner for Windows
1

Hey all - Is there a way to run CCleaner without erasing books that I downloaded to the Google Chrome Kindle app?

Thanks much! Pedro

You need to supply more info:

* Windows OS you're using (i.e.; Win8, Win7, WinXP, etc.)

* CCleaner version you're using.

* Do you use the winapp2.ini file?

Hey,

I use Windows 7, 32 bit Home ultimate.

For CCleaner, I use version 4.05.4250

I'm not sure about the last question. How do I find that out?

Thanks!

Hi Pedro, and welcome to the forum.

Is the "Google Chrome Kindle app" not basically a "Cloud" reader?

Are the books stored online, and maybe downloaded to a temp file to enable "off-line" reading?

If that's the case, you would need to find where they are stored to exclude that location from CCleaner. If there's a dedicated "Kindle" folder I don't see CCleaner touching it really.

I don't have Chrome or the app, so guessing a bit here.

It is basically a cloud reader I think. I can download and pin the books for offline reading. Once I run Ccleaner, the downloaded books are no longer available, and I have to re-download them. I am not sure where they are stored. I will look again though - Thanks!

Try looking in your browser's temp downloads folder, which may or may not be hidden, or a search including hidden files and folders may help if you have a book loaded into the browser and search for the name.

If you can't find it, come back and I'm sure one of the guys using chrome will give you a heads up as to where to look.

Why Run when you can Analyze and then export to a file everything that is targeted.

You might then search the export file and see the name of a book and the path which leads to it.

Ahh, but that's the easy way Alan.

Which has me wondering why I didn't think of it. ;)

The reason is you are not as lazy as me :)
