Running XP Pro with Ccleaner v2.36.1233
(Example only) Analyze informs me that there is 124Mb to delete, operation of cleaner returns that 24Mb has been deleted! Closing Ccleaner, re-opening and re-analyzing reveals 0Mb, what happened to the balance?
Is the programme actually performing correctly?
Analysis obviously varies dependant on usage etc. but the results are usually about the same fewer Mb than initial analysis!
Regards, Peter.
can you compare the analysis and the cleaned logs and tell us which section seems not to be bing cleaned?
If it is a browser section, make sure (using task manager's Processes tab) that all the instances of the browser are closed and not running (browsers are notorious for running even though they've been exited)

Not sure if I understand your answer fully, have just run Ccleaner. It found 87Mb, ran cleaner, it returned information "Cleaning complete (0.876 secs)" 0 bytes removed! No details shown.
What Nergal is saying is can you compare the before and after summery for us.
analyze : show us whats said to be deleted
Run : show us what was deleted
His second part was saying are you making sure the browser process has terminated. Just because you can not see the browser does not mean it is still not running. CCleaner will skip certain task if said browser is open.
Also check the 24 hour temp file rule under Options - Advanced

Thankyou for posting a reply.
I think that between you the answer has been found! Using Task Manager to check, then running Ccleaner gave me the results that:-
ANALYSIS COMPLETE - (2.562 secs)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.50 MB to be removed. (Approximate size)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Details of files to be deleted (Note: No files have been deleted yet)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Internet Explorer - Temporary Internet Files 2,556 KB 69 files
Internet Explorer - Cookies 1 KB 1 files
Running Ccleaner then removed the 2.50Mb.
Many thanks, it just takes us older guys a little more time to evaluate and put into practice what the digital revolution is placing before us!
