When I clean Chrome, the "Predict network actions to improve page load performance" setting always gets rechecked (enabled). I find that unchecking that setting makes for a quicker Chrome, but now CCleaner 3.23.1823 resets it each time its run. I reverted to the previous 3.22.1800 build and the issue is gone.
Same thing happens with Dragon 21.2.1.0 Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP1 English
I can confirm this behavior on Windows 7 Professional X64 SP1, it is caused by the Internet History entry for Chrome.
The file/folder %LocalAppData%\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Network Action Predictor is cleared.
I am still using 3.22.1800 with no issues resetting "Predict network actions to improve page load performance" like 3.23.1823.
In build 3.22.1800 there is an entry that is cleaned named "C:\Users\D Bone\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Network Action Predictor 5 KB" and it doesn't reset the setting, so hopefully the developers will take a look at the differences when they changed to the new build and fix it for us.
Any word from Piriform on whether or not they even consider this an issue?
You probably will not hear from the devs on this issue, but should be assured that they read every thread, and we most likely may see a fix in a future build. Until then I'd suggest using 3.23 at adding that file to the excludes.

I updated to 3.23 and excluded all files that had "Network Action Predictor" anywhere in the name, and CCleaner still re-enabled the setting each and every time??
unclear what you mean "exclude all that had…"
what exactly did you exlcude?
in your previous post you said
D:\Users\D Bone\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Network Action Predictor
is that a file or a folder
user data\Default is in that is there another user data besides default?
I see a that 3.24.1850 is out at various 3rd party outlets, can anyone confirm that this new version has fixed the problem?
I can confirm that the problem is till there, and I'm guessing that Piriform doesn't even recognize it as a problem. Back to SlimCleaner I guess.
How do you expect Piriform to recognize a problem when you fail to answer Nergal's question ?
Not sure what question you're referring to. I gave all of the information that is required, and all that a Piriform employee has to do is.
1) Verify what I'm saying buy unchecking that box, running the latest CCleaner, and then rechecking to see it re-enabled. They should be able to handle that.
2) Do the same procedure as above but with 3.22.1800, or any earlier version, and they'll see that the setting is unaffected. Again, I bet they can do it.
3) Look at what they changed from 3.22.1800 to 3.23.xxxx. Only they know this, I sure don't.
4) Fix it.
3 updates and no fix by Piriform. CCleaner is the only cleaner that re-enables this setting, so I'm guessing they don't consider it a problem or they don't actually read these posts. Either way it's a shame.
I can confirm that the issue is still present.
D Bone, for now, I suggest adding the file to your exclusion list.
I have added every single file that displays when I check "Internet History" to the exclude list and CCleaner still resets the setting. The only way it won't re-enable the setting is if I uncheck "Internet History" under the Google Chrome list in the applications Tab.
I suggest that you run Cleaner with "Internet History" unchecked,
and then check "Internet History and Analyze.
That should identify what is being removed by the "Internet History" setting,
and you may be able to identify which of those item(s) need to be added to the Exclude List.
Finally, today's new build has fixed this issue. Better late then never! haha
