litedude Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Hi, I am using windows 7 64 bit. And i tried to add this piece of text to winapp2.ini: [Google Earth] LangSecRef=3021 Detect=HKCU\SOFTWARE\Google\Google Earth Pro Default=True FileKey1=%appdata%\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat FileKey2=%appdata%\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat.index RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Google\Google Earth Pro\Search But it doesn't show up in Ccleaner. Not in the applications list nor in the results list which shows up after analysing. The full path to winapp2.ini is C:\Program Files (x86)\CCleaner\Winapp2.ini. Can someone help me to fix this? Thanks Edit: oh, and because the manual says that the path must be \Program files\ and doesn't talk about \Program files (x86)\, I tried to put the file in C:\Program Files\CCleaner\Winapp2.ini (which I had to create). But that didn't work either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted February 14, 2010 Moderators Share Posted February 14, 2010 I think your problem may be that Google Earth is already a cleaner included in CCleaner by default if it isn't working I don't know why unless Google has changed something. This is what's in the old CCleaner version I use: [Google Earth] ID=2112 LangSecRef=3021 Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Google Earth Plus Detect2=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Google Earth Pro Default=True FileKey1=%appdata%\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat FileKey2=%appdata%\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat.index RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Google\Google Earth Plus\Search RegKey2=HKCU\Software\Google\Google Earth Pro\Search Perhaps changing the header name of the cleaner you made to this "may" allow it to show up and work (notice the asterisk before the name): [*Google Earth] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disk4mat Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Why have 2 detect parameters? Also, is'nt there an HKCU reg entry to refernce? Otherwise both reg keys have to be present in order for CC to carry out the clean action. It wont act as an either or. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
litedude Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 Okay, I changed the detectfile to DetectFile=%program files%\Google\Google Earth At least i can see it in Ccleaner. But now, the problem is, that nothing is analysed. The full path to the file i want to delete is: C:\Users\***\AppData\LocalLow\Google\GoogleEarth\dbCache I tried using these settings: FileKey1=%LocalAppData%\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat FileKey1=%appdata%\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat But none of the worked. How do i get to \Appdata\LocalLow\Google? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted February 18, 2010 Moderators Share Posted February 18, 2010 How do i get to \Appdata\LocalLow\Google? Most likely you'll have to add that LocalLow path onto the cleaning routine otherwise it will always fail, try this using the code modified from what's already in CCleaner, don't know if it will work though - use Analyse first before committing to the clean!: [*Google Earth] ID=2112 LangSecRef=3021 Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Google Earth Plus Detect2=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Google Earth Pro Default=True FileKey1=%appdata%\LocalLow\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat FileKey2=%appdata%\LocalLow\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat.index RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Google\Google Earth Plus\Search RegKey2=HKCU\Software\Google\Google Earth Pro\Search If it still won't work with the above try this - use Analyze first before committing to the clean: [*Google Earth] ID=2112 LangSecRef=3021 Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Google Earth Plus Detect2=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Google Earth Pro Default=True FileKey1=%userprofile%\Application Data\LocalLow\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat FileKey2=%userprofile%\Application Data\LocalLow\Google\GoogleEarth|dbcache.dat.index RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Google\Google Earth Plus\Search RegKey2=HKCU\Software\Google\Google Earth Pro\Search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
