Socksboy Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 As a newbie, I have been very impressed by CCleaner, but am somewhat intriqued by why, when I run it on the XP Admin account on my home PC, it shows no 'issues', but if I then run it from one of our limited accounts, it comes up with about 35 files, which appear to relate to uninstalls for MS updates. These take the form: C:\WINDOWS\$NTUnistallKB834707$\spuninst\spuninst.exe Running CCleaner, clears them, but they all reappear as soon as I re-run CCleaner on that account. Is this a minor bug in the program, or a problem with my setup? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would this shortcoming be addressed, I am sure CCleaner would soon become a valuable app for administrators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
