Oregon Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 Each time I run CCleaner, the history of Anti-Virus Grisoft (AVG) is removed. AVG then thinks it hasn't run before and does an initial scan which takes hours. How can I set CCleaner so it does not remove the AVG History?

Moderators Nergal Posted December 10, 2010 Moderators Share Posted December 10, 2010 You can uncheck AVG (or the applications tab) Here is what is cleaned by ccleaner with the AVG Checkmark (I'm giving you all the version because you don't state what version of AVG you use [Grisoft AVG 7.0] ID=2128 LangSecRef=3024 Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Grisoft\Avg7 Default=True FileKey1=%commonappdata%\Grisoft\Avg7Data|*.log FileKey2=%commonappdata%\Grisoft\Avg7Data\upd7bin|*.* FileKey3=%commonappdata%\Grisoft\Avg7Data\$history|*.* FileKey4=%commonappdata%\Grisoft\Avg7Data\avg7upd|*.log FileKey5=%windir%\All Users\Application Data\Grisoft\Avg7Data\upd7bin|*.* FileKey6=%windir%\All Users\Application Data\Grisoft\Avg7Data\avg7upd|$history FileKey7=%windir%\All Users\Application Data\Grisoft\Avg7Data\avg7upd|*.log FileKey8=%windir%\All Users\Application Data\Grisoft\Avg7Data|*.log FileKey9=%windir%\Application Data\AVG7\Log|*.log [AVG AntiVirus 8.0] ID=2141 LangSecRef=3024 Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\AVG\Avg8 Default=True FileKey1=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg8\Log|*.log FileKey2=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg8\scanlogs|*.log FileKey3=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg8\Log|*.xml FileKey4=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg8\update\backup|*.* FileKey5=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg8\Emc\Log|*.log [AVG AntiVirus 9.0] ID=2145 LangSecRef=3024 Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\AVG\Avg9 Default=True FileKey1=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg9\Log|*.log FileKey2=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg9\scanlogs|*.log FileKey3=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg9\Log|*.xml FileKey4=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg9\update\backup|*.* FileKey5=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg9\Emc\Log|*.log [AVG AntiVirus 10.0] ID=2170 LangSecRef=3024 Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\AVG\Avg10 Default=True FileKey1=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg10\Log|*.log FileKey2=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg10\scanlogs|*.log FileKey3=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg10\Log|*.xml FileKey4=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg10\update\backup|*.* FileKey5=%allusersprofile%\Application Data\avg10\Emc\Log|*.log you could experiment with the exclude section of the ccleaner options and see which of these cleans is causing the issue, or as I said just uncheck AVG in the applications tab. 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.

Moderators Andavari Posted December 10, 2010 Moderators Share Posted December 10, 2010 You're probably best to untick the AVG cleaner, and exclude the logs folder that way should you ever accidentally enable it again cleaning the logs will be impossible.
