Index.dat files in Windows Vista

[Fox Mulder]

Hi. I was wondering for the next version of CCleaner that you guys put out could you guys include the feature that will delete the index.dat files in Windows Vista (I have Windows Vista Home Premium)?

 

The 2 index.dat files are located here:

 

C:\users\[username of the computer owner here]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

 

C:\users\[username of the computer owner here]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies

 

I tried the beta version v2.00.475 and the last complete version v1.41.544 and it doesn't delete of those files after a reboot and I remember my old computer which had Windows '98, CCleaner did delete those index.dat files on reboot.

 

Thank you in advance.

I just tried Beta 2 and v2.00.495 RC and still doesn't delete those index.dat files. It makes an allusion to deleting index.dat in RC saying it's deleting the index.dat in the history folder but like I said the files itself are located here:

 

C:\users\[username of the computer owner here]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

 

C:\users\[username of the computer owner here]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies
