in latest amd previous versions, when using cleaner, having only "clean old prefetch" it brings up many additional files including cookies, for both i.e & firefox.

this bug should be corrected'

thanks

Are you sure it's removing the actual files and not the prefetch data for those files???? Can you post a screenshot? or a log file (right click on the output on CCleaner save to text and paste here)

the above is my old prefetch only results and I see none of what you mention. Can you post your CCleaner.ini file (if you don't have it enabled go to Options, Advanced and enable it. You can then copy the text and paste it here

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION

DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)

ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

The ramifications of clearing out prefetch file has been discussed before:

I also started using PCs in 1982 and I find I am still learning new tricks.
