Which index.dat files are wiped?

As far as I can see index.dat files are cleaned during a run.

 

But which of them in detail?

 

As you can see from the attached snapshot my system has 10 (!) of them.

 

How can I tell CCleaner to list all of the index.dat files it knows?

Right click on Index.dat files under Internet Explorer and click "Analyze". When you get the results, double click on "Internet Explorer - Index.dat files" and you will get a Detailed View of what CCleaner has got.

 

Any problems, write back.

Simplicity is hard.

Thank you.

 

The result was really disappointing.

From the 10 index.dat files shown in the snapshot above only 1 was cleaned by CCleaner.

 

Hmm, is there really no advanced find-all-index.dat-files-and-wipe-them feature in CCleaner?

 

This is a big security hole.

 

Could this be included in the next release?
