romath Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Shouldn't saving the .ini files be on by default? It seems standard for software and especially necessary given the kinds of cleaning CCC does. Until someone steered me to the option, I'd been losing the list of recent Word files and who knows what else with each update off CCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ePost Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not sure everybody would agree. I want as little crap as possible on my PC. But having the content of "Cookies to keep" transferred to new versions would be nice.

romath Posted October 10, 2009 Author Share Posted October 10, 2009 I think it would be hard to find someone who actually thought about it, or had it explained to them, that would disagree. Maintaning settings, or offering the choice, with each update is SOP with applications. For software of CCC's kind, i.e., the kind that can do damage, it should be a no brainer.

ePost Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 I think a popup during install would be better. It could just ask if one wants the old settings transferred when it's relevant. Because a transfer isn't possible very often because new features, options, programs etc. are added and old ones disappear or get new functionalities. This is the case almost every time CCleaner's staff issues an update. By the way: only two Cs in CCleaner's name.

fireryone Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 I never typed it that way myself but I use to verbally say "CC Cleaner" for ages, until I was reminded it wasn't CrapCrapCleaner It may be because "C Cleaner" doesn't roll off the tongue the same. fireryone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What puzzles me is that given how long CC has been out and about, a stink hasn't been raised about this. I must be missing something, because on the face of it to treat users' choices as if they don't exist seems somewhere between insensitive and arrogant.

Moderators hazelnut Posted October 10, 2009 Moderators Share Posted October 10, 2009 I don't see developers allowing me to use their software for free as being insensitive and arrogant We can make suggestions, and then hope the devs implement them.
