Mitchrapp Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Hey guys first things first, I have been using CCleaner for maybe 2 years now... I use it ADDICTIVELY. Like 5-10 times a day. I'm obsessed. Clean Clean Clean. CLEAN. Everytime i visit an "awkward" website, I check CCleaner to see if something new is in my startup... seriously. Anyways on to my question I've recently installed Vista x64 (new computer too) and it seems that CCleaner scans the registry but doesn't clean some items In total, it's 111 items right now, but it grows everytime i install and uninstall something (lately, winamp) Some examples are: Unused File Extension : .DVR Unused File Extension : DDECache the next 109 entries all start with "InProcServer32" ... all from Winamp (uninstalled), Stardock (currently in use) and Logitech webcam stuff (uninstalled... thanks Logitech for not supporting vista x64 on 99.9% of your webcams!) Is this a known issue or should I do something about it? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itaru47 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Hi, I came to the forum because I had pretty much the same problem so I hope someone can help out. Running on vista business 64, registery cleaner lists a bunch of "ActiveX/COM Issues" that mainly have to do with winamp which I recently uninstalled. Also some obsolete software keys. They basically keep showing up after fixing them. I'm running CCleaner as administrator. I thought perhaps I need to disable windows defender, but I'm not sure how to do that. Is there is a better program for cleaning up windows vista 64? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCleaner is the best ! It just might have 1 bug for vista. I've never had any problem before so it must be a vista-only issue... I've also started installing CCleaner on all company computers... 1300 computers... cleeeeeeeean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchrapp Posted November 11, 2007 Author Share Posted November 11, 2007 I guess this issue is on "ignore" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bteamfox Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I to have this issue with Vista X64. I have about 140 entries CC will not remove. If I right click on an entry and select regedit then press delete when the entry is displayed, the entry is deleted so I don't know why CC does not delete the entry? PS I could post all the entires if it would help the CC team fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MrT Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Can any of you post some of the entries that are not being deleted? This will definetly help solving the problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riden Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 This seems to be happening with Windows XP 64 bit SP2 as well. It looks like some entries are being removed, but many remain. I'll capture the changes before and after next time. Meanwhile, I've included a backup file created by CCleaner that contains entries that are not being currently removed. cc_20071207_1045.txt cc_20071207_1045.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
