Keithuk Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Why isn't BeginnersGuide.chm included in the installation package. I know it says to reduce the size of the installer but CCleaner v2.02.527 is 2,662Kb and the help file is only 57Kb so that isn't going to make much difference. I know you can download BeginnersGuide.zip seperately but I can't find the link anymore. I write programmes and I wouldn't dream of not adding the help file to an installation package just because its a few Kb larger. If users don't have web access then they can't access any help.

Keithuk Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 Thanks for the link hazelnut, I knew I had seen it somewhere. This will be a useful link for CCleaner users that don't know that an help file exists. Any thoughts about Piriform added an help file to the installation package?

Moderators hazelnut Posted November 13, 2007 Moderators Share Posted November 13, 2007 It has been suggested before as you can imagine, it's really up to MrG the developer. In the meantime it's great to have such a good helpfile to link to. There is also the quicktour http://www.CCleaner.com/help/tour/1-after-installation and the faq's http://www.CCleaner.com/help/faq on the CCleaner download page.

Moderators Andavari Posted November 13, 2007 Moderators Share Posted November 13, 2007 I agree that a help file should be included as it would negate many of the repeated over and over and over questions that pop up each week. However there seems to be a trend in recent years where more and more software titles are going to online help via a Wiki, and as TwistedMetal has done with the Beginner's Guide on his website. Just be glad he's taken the time to compile it in a downloadable form, that being the CHM file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDPower Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 However there seems to be a trend in recent years where more and more software titles are going to online help via a Wiki, and as TwistedMetal has done with the Beginner's Guide on his website. But there really should be a link to it within CCleaner? Can't be too hard and would save us all answering some of the same questions over and over again.
