CCleaner "overcleaning"

[marv1920]

When I use CCleaner it clears the "Recently Used File List" in Excel 2003, but doesn't clear them in Word 2003, though the settings are the same for both through Tools, Options. Is there some way to eliminate this annoying feature?

hi Marv1920,

 

I don't use Word and Excel 2003 I use Office 2007 and when I go to advanced I have an option of shoing the amount of recent files.

I have set it to show 0 (zero)

I'm sure there is an option in Office 2003 where you can do this.

I've done that - and it works for Word, but not for Excel

I had the exact same problem and this worked for me:

- In CCleaner, go to "Cleaner".

- Click the "Applications"-tab up top.

- Uncheck the "Office 2003" box.
