Moderators Augeas Posted April 23, 2009 Moderators Share Posted April 23, 2009 I guess they are elements of some previously loaded software. Applications can include files which were created some time ago. I have a few entries with a date going back to before my pc was even a red blob on my credit card. What's a Recuva deep sweep 7 scan pass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Nergal Posted April 24, 2009 Moderators Share Posted April 24, 2009 i did a deepscan and set it to do 7 passes. :/ I would assume that's why you see such old files naw but seriously, the 7 passes isn't the scan, it's for when you over write. deepscan does just that scans for as much "recoverable" it can find no matter what 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.
