bjm Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Please explain this text from your FAQ's. Do I need to be an administrator to run this? Ideally yes. Although you can still run this as a normal or restricted user, however, some files may not be deleted. My install of CCleaner did not populate into my Standard User Account. Don't understand how I may run CCleaner from and for my Standard User Accounts if install does not populate beyond Admin Account. Hope you do not consider this query a Vista compatibility question. I'm sure all products work with Vista. Q: How do I run CCleaner from and for User Account if it's not in my User Accounts?

kmillerusaf Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Welcome to the forums bjm, By default, CCleaner should have been installed to C:\Program Files\CCleaner\. You should be able to nagivate to this directory and run CCleaner from there. You can also then create shortcuts to that file on the start menu and desktop from your user account. Hope this helps!

Keith So simple....BIG HELP....who knew? I was only looking in my User Account - All Programs....not the brightest bulb in the box....I pinned shortcut to my User Account Start Menu.... When CCleaner is run from a Standard User Account will CCleaner only service that User Account. If I clean IE tracks for example, Will I only be cleaning IE tracks for that User Account?

Respectfully submitted bjm From my own experience you would have to log in to each individual account and run CCleaner from there in order to clean the tracks related to that account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
