Ishi Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Hello, Feb 2010 Vista Ultimate (likely all Vista versions) is using the following location for temporary folders / files: C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local as well as C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Temp Please add these to your cleanup list in CCleaner! Thanks. It would be good to add such a feature but CCleaner can include individual folders for cleaning. Go to Options>Include>Add. I love computer maintenance tasks. Some of my favorite programs: Wordpad -basic word processing Notepad - temporary clipboard and basic scripting module Windows Media Player 12- video, music and online radio player Windows Media Center - live TV, local FM radio CCleaner- handy computer maintenance tool If something fails to work after using the registry cleaner, use SYSTEM RESTORE.

Moderators Nergal Posted March 1, 2010 Moderators Share Posted March 1, 2010 C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local is not solely a Temp folder 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.

Aethec Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local This is NOT a temp folder, but a folder for application data. C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Temp = %Temp% (to be compatible with all versions of Windows). Piriform French translator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted March 1, 2010 Moderators Share Posted March 1, 2010 = %Temp% (to be compatible with all versions of Windows). Yup and As far as I can tell CCleaner does now and has always cleaned it (thus it being a temp file cleaner program) and it does ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.

osmarelo Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 This is a problem, when deleting files in TEMP folder. CCleaner v2.30.1130 are deleting files (xxxxxxLog.ini) in folder "Users\xxxxxxxx\AppData\Temp\". It cause "error message" when you make next boot in the computer. I don't know why it is happend, and can't undertand how those files (.ini) where set in that folder. Those files (.ini) where created when I made updates in motherboard drivers. To correct I made "restauration" in the system and turn those files (.ini) as hide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be better to make those files part of tools>exclude instead of "hiding" them. . . do you know what program is creating these files???
