gregmowad Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I really like CCleaner. Has anyone compared what ATF.exe removes vs CCleaner? As soon as I finish running CCleaner, I run ATF (select all) and it always finds more files. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Andavari Posted February 8, 2010 Moderators Share Posted February 8, 2010 From the Softpedia.com description of it I think the reason it's deleting more is because when you're logged in as the Admin it can clean all users temp folders - something which has been requested countless times for CCleaner to do as well. Just use it along with CCleaner and you'll gave a good cleaning duo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregmowad Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 Thanks Andavari. I'll take your advice and continue using both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoninV Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 It's my understanding that ATF Cleaner is for 2000/XP only. Is that true? Any update as to whether CCleaner will incorporate the feature that will allow an Administrative user to wipe the temporary folders of all user accounts?

Capman Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Towards the bottom of this page, there is mention of Vista. Notes for Windows Vista users: On Windows Vista that "Windows Temp" is disabled, to empty "Windows Temp" ATF-Cleaner must be "Run as an Administrator" Prefetch has been disabled on Windows Vista. As I'm not sure the effects that emptying prefetch on Windows Vista will have for the time being it I won't enable that function. That would tell me that Vista is at least partially cleanable with ATF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
