CCleaner sticks on IE index.dat

Recommended Posts

I updated to the current version of CCleaner (2.19.901) and now everytime I run it, it gets stuck at 5% on internet explorers index.dat file. I even tried un-checking the index.dat box. I'm using IE8.....any ideas on what's wrong? I have not tried uninstalling and reinstalling yet....

 

The program still seems like it is functioning as I can hear the processor working, but there is no progress change....I've waited as long as 10 minutes. If I click on cancel, then the program locks up and I have to shut it down with task manager.

 

Thanks for the help.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling....and did a fresh bootup.....Same problem. I'm going to uninstall and switch back to a previous version....Seems like my recent upgrade to IE8 is the problem....Any help is appreciated....

I reverted back to 2.18.878 and am still having the same problem. Anyone else running IE8 having this problem?

I've noticed the same behavior; it happens even if I leave index.dat unchecked in CC.

 

Try leaving "History" unchecked, or go into IE and clear the history there before running CC. I'd also suggest keeping the IE history setting to something much lower than the default 20 days.
