what is ".ink/openwithlist" ?

Hey Piriform Community Forums

cCleaner, the last one, keep finding ".lnk/openwithlist".

I set it to remove it, and it turn up next time.

What is it ?

And why can?t it be fixed ?

That's in the registry cleaner, and it will probably endlessly reappear . What I've did since the new versions registry cleaner is more aggressive is exclude a bunch of the file associations (79 total) which it states aren't needed, however I know better.

You can exclude right inside the registry cleaner by right clicking and selecting: Add to Exclude list

:rolleyes:

Thanka a LOT, Andavari ! - That was nice to know, and it helped

The Following site lists known Programs which use extention .ink

http://www.fileinfo.com/extension/ink

Do you now or have you ever had any of those installed.

If yes, and you no longer have the program it is safe to remove, else add it to the exclude list (right click and choose add to exclude)

He wrote .lnk (".LNK") as in shortcuts, since it's often easy to think it reads as .ink ("INK")

Doh Opps Lnk files are shortcuts add it to your exclude

(Thanks AndavarI you are my CPT Spectacular today :P)
