Every time I run CCleaner, it deletes things I want to keep. For example, I assume that my preferences for my personalised Google home page - iGoogle - are stored as a cookie somewhere?
Everytime I run CCleaner, my personalised google home page reverts to the standard google page. I have to log in to Google again with my email and password, even though I've asked Google to 'remember me'. I don't have to redo all my gadgets etc, so the preferences file itself is not being deleted, but somehow CCleaner is removing the 'activation' process?
It's no big deal, but it's annoying. I've tried to find where or how my google preferences are stored so I can try and save the file, but had no success so far.
I'm assuming the C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\EJR7ZWV7, and the other Macromedia path, are the same as in XP.
Of course it's possible you may not have any .sol files in that location. I know YouTube can deposit stuff there, and I get ocassional cookies dropped in there by random sites, but I suppose it's possible you haven't hit anywhere yet that uses Flash Cookies.
I use a music site called Deezer, which deposits all it's log-on and settings details in both of those locations as .sol files, but all the other places I'm registered at use normal cookies.
At least now if you start losing log-on details from some future site you register at, you'll know some extra places to look.
