Cumulative Cleaning

[nobrakes2]

Whats the chance of adding a cumulative amount of data cleaned counter.

 

Lets say that you run ccleaner and clean 117.54MB

The next day you run it and clean 45.67MB

etc...

 

How about adding the totals and displaying the info in the results or on another tab to show 'statistics' with a clear button if you wish reset back to 0

 

This could be a good marketing point for ccleaner in the fact that 'in over a week ccleaner cleaned 67.90GB of unneeded data'

It wouldn't really be representative as - for frequent cleaners - much of the 'cleaned' data would be the same data repeatedly loaded.

Pretty pointless idea sorry,

It really doesn't serve much purpose, but It would be very easy for the devs to implement into the program. Just save the figure in the CCleaner registry entry.

Doesn't even need to have to be the registry,

Why ? The Registry has a lot of advantages compared to the old INI files.

That comment was based on a few assumptions that i really can not be bothered to check,

 

I know ccleaner is in c++, But my assumptions where (i dont know c++) that

 

it's visual c++.net

 

That VC++ has the equilivent of vb.net my.settings.PersonalSetting

 

think it's Properties.Settings.Default for c# so i'd say it would be around that for c++.

CCleaner is not built using C++/CLI (the official name for VC++.NET), else it would require .NET. Anyway, .NET doesn't use INI for its config files

/bangs head hard, really not thinking straight today, school boy error in thinking power today

I'v never bothered to learn into .ini config files. Should do really since i'm a long time user of ccleaner.

 

You might of just kicked my ass into doing so.

I think this would be a nifty addition, even if it is the same data over and over again it would be sort of interesting to know just how much ccleaners done away with.

On my system I typically get less than 1 MB per day to clean,

but I only have to include the daily ERUNT registry backup and I could score 500 MB per day.

Meaningless irrelevant numbers - I would get more satisfaction collecting train numbers ! !

 

So if we get some numbers from this, what can we do with them ?

 

Should we have separate sub-totals for every application and checkbox to enable comparisons on different computers.

 

Do we really want CCleaner to go down the trail blazed by Adobe bloatware of seizing half the registry as its own private scratchpad ! !

 

Sorry, but it seems pointless to me.
