Jetvictor Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Hello. For the new release, I love it. CCleaner gets better and better every update. I just have a question. I have two hard drive, local disk C and New Volume D. CCleaner only cleans up C drive but I want to wipe other drive as well. I have my big huge files from the other drive. So how can I get CCleaner to wipe there as well? Thanks for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmillerusaf Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I don't think that is what Jetvictor is referring to. I think you may need to include the files on D:\ because if I understand CCleaner the way I think I do, it only cleans the currently logged in user's profile on the drive or parition that the OS is installed to. Anything else needs to be included. See the below link on how to include files, folders, etc. Including and excluding files, folders, and registry entries. Hope this helps Keith There's always an exception to the rule. I'm that exception.

But you want to overwrite it on purpose, so the cleaning process is wanted no? Please also note that if you select the "secure" option it will perform several cycles to really make sure no traces are left... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
