You forgot to add this one:

I have also tried the lines that were left for testing and everything looks very safe.

Winapp2 v1.0.121025 entry below shows on my XP system, and did remove QuickLaunch icons in XP.

[Windows 7 QuickLaunch*]
LangSecRef=3025
DetectOS=|6.1|
Detect=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

FileKey1=%AppData%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch|*.lnk

 

Winapp2 v1.0.121126 entry below doesn't show on my XP system.

The first pipe symbol - | has been removed from the 'DetectOS' line, and has corrected the XP issue.

[Windows 7/8 QuickLaunch*]

Thanks for testing/showing fix for this XP problem. It is correct as issued in the latest release of Winapp2.ini.

Just compared the old format to the new format, interesting result.

 

2012-11-27_130606.png

 

Running them both together and separately (with and without ccleaner restarts in between) produced mostly similar results, some varying by some tenths of a second but nothing major.

is the new format the use of ; in file keys? I like it when did this get discovered? I missed it. I like it.

 

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.

I was semi-concious of it until recently when I was making an entry and I was like, "there's an entry in winapp.ini that uses semicolons, that'll probably save space"

 

took me a few tries to workout how to recurse (initially I tried ;*.*|RECURSE;*.*2|RECURSE but that did not work) but I figured it out. Ho-ah.

 

My intention going in was to shrink the file, the speed boost was an unintended but welcomed side effect.

 

To clarify: yes, the new format is delimited by semi colons instead of CLRF and having separate filekeys. That entry in particular compared an extreme case of 25 file keys over thousands of folders. This is the first version to use them.

 

The entries in winapp.ini that made me realize you can do this are

 

[Avast! Antivirus 4]
ID=2160
LangSecRef=3024
Detect=HKCU\Software\ALWIL Software\Avast\4.0
Default=True
FileKey1=%ProgramFiles%\Alwil Software\Avast4\DATA\report|avast.xsl;Resident protection.txt;Simple user interface.txt;Simple user interface*.xml
FileKey2=%ProgramFiles%\Alwil Software\Avast4\DATA\log|*.*

[Avast! Antivirus 5]
ID=2161
LangSecRef=3024
Detect=HKCU\Software\ALWIL Software\Avast\5.0
Default=True
FileKey1=%ProgramData%\Alwil Software\Avast5\report|avast.xsl;avast.xsl;Resident protection.txt;Simple user interface.txt;Simple user interface*.xml
FileKey2=%ProgramData%\Alwil Software\Avast5\log|*.*

 

side note: teehee, piriform goofed and has 2 "avast.xsl" in there.

 

 

 

I ran the same changes through winapp.ini and it'd shave 3KB off of it. Small gains and whatnot ;)

 

Would be far more for both files if the same format applied to RegKeys

Can anyone explain the purpose of this entry?

 

[Cached Shell Extensions*]

LangSecRef=3025

Detect=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions

Default=False

RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Cached

 

It cleans up the right-click context menu cache. After using it especially when right clicking you may or will notice your on-screen mouse hourglass cursor display as it rebuilds the cache - usually only takes a few short seconds.

I had planned to keep the old location preserved as well, fear not. I usually try to maintain older locations to maximize compatibility.

 

A recent example of this would be

Would it be wise to make individual entries for each windows 8 application? Or stick with that all-encompassing one?

 

My original goal was to make individual ones. Kind of got stuck on which ones to group and what to call the Entries... then it got out of control with 22 FileKeys :rolleyes:

I have these separate ones

The xbox Games, Music, & Video ones I'm not sure if they'll break peoples personally saved items. The most i've used those three was to open the app to see what they were.

Well, the good news is, that I think I have a way of making them for individual metro apps.

 

Just waiting on an update to the application I used to make the test entry to make sure it isn't broken by updates. I don't expect it will be though.

I wonder why there hasn't been an update yet, I check everyday but wonder if it has something to do with

but (just one hour before my posting this)

In a recent interview with Lazyworm Applications co-founder Atta Elayyan, he told Neowin that the people who have already downloaded the previous free version of Tweetro will have to pay the full price of Tweetro+ in order to continue to use the app.

 

Oh. :(
