Latest CCleaner doesn't show MSoft hotfix,updates...

[mikesw]

The latest version of CCleaner doesn't list updates, servicepacks, hotfixes etc for any

MSoft product such as the OS, Office etc. Thus, I can't remove any of them and

must use MSofts add/remove program to do so. This may apply to other programs to

from MSoft.

 

Moreover, it doesn't show "hidden" program files so that I may remove them too.

Total uninstaller will show these, but not CCleaner.

 

System is win xp pro sp3.

I'll try win 2k pro sp4 this weekend.

 

Vista sp1 ????

 

correction: .NET service packs and hotfixes along with msxml ones do show, just no others such as

OS or Office patches show up.

Ok, tested 618 CCleaner on windows 2k pro sp4 and the list of MSoft hotfixes do showup, however, the security , updates and service packs

don't. For .NET and msmxl hotfixes and service packs, they show up.

 

My guess is CCleaner isn't pointing to the correct registry entries for either MSoft XP or 2K OS' that contain a list of all the hotfixes

, updates, security and service pack entries along with their locations on the drive.

 

Can somebody verify this with Vista since I don't have that OS. I'll try to check with a friend to see if this works who has it.
