Winapp2.ini additions


Winapp2.ini

Recommended Posts

The [Device Manager Cache XP*] code is now showing up on Windows 10 systems.

[Device Manager Cache XP*]
DetectOS=5.1|
LangSecRef=3025
Default=False
Warning=This clears cached drivers of connected devices. As soon as you connect a new device, this file regenerates.
FileKey1=%WinDir%\inf|INFCACHE.1

I changed the DetectOS to DetectOS=|5.1 and it no longer shows up on Windows 10.  HOWEVER, I have no way to determine if it shows up properly on XP systems after this change.

 

So DetectOS only works if it is like this DetectOS=|X? I thought this was wrong because other entries have it like this DetectOS=X|

The "Detect" is missing on this entry because the entry should always be present.  The Config.msi folder pops in and out based on program installers.  If you do a TRIM of Winapp2.ini at a time when Config.msi is not present on the drive because the last run installer properly cleaned up after itself, then you will not pick up the cleaning code so that it can cleanup a left over Config.msi until the next time your trim.  

 

Interesting. I didn't know CCleaner worked without a Detect either, but I guess i never really tested. I wonder if we can do this with other system entries, like logs and temp files, but only if it applies to all Windows systems, like temp files for example are the same from XP-10, as far as I am concerned.

In CCleaner, if you look under the Applications tab>Windows, you should find [Config.msi Folder*] which is just sitting waiting for a %systemdrive%\Config.msi to be created by an installer\uninstaller.   ;)

 

As far as temp files or logs, you need to be careful to not force CCleaner to scan the entire drive looking for logs or temp files.  But if there is a folder that gets created and is full of logs or temp files, then yes you can create code to clean out that folder and delete it and the code needs no Detect.  It will show up on every system.

for [Device Manager Cache XP*], somehow the | changed location during this "Major update" so the correct entry should be

 

[Device Manager Cache XP*]

DetectOS=|5.1
LangSecRef=3025
Default=False
Warning=This clears cached drivers of connected devices. As soon as you connect a new device, this file regenerates.
FileKey1=%WinDir%\inf|INFCACHE.1

There are duplicates showing up in the Chrome section.

Duplicate entry names are not working, even if they are in different sections.

These entries are duplicates (one for Chrome and one for Firefox):

 

[Crash Reports*]

[html5 Storage*]

[Logs*]

[Temps*]

[updates*]

Yep, duplicate names are not permitted.   :wacko:

 

The bad part is that if Trim.bat encounters duplicate names, it may include both or it may omit both.  So duplicate names can cause cleaning code to not be included in the final "trimmed" winapp2.ini

I am sorry to have to do this, but I am going to be taking a short break from Winapp2 for a few days or so. I am currently having a family crisis situation here. My grandma has passed away yesterday and I have been very upset to continue Winapp2 right now. The current development build of Winapp2 should be stable enough to use for awhile. I will try to come back to Winapp2 next week. I hope everyone can understand my situation right now.

Sorry to hear about your sad loss.

 

Your real life is more important right now so deal with things for as long as you want and need.

Seconded. In the grand scheme of things, winapp2 is an irrelevance. Do what you have to and ignore this place for a couple of weeks, and when you're ready, it'll all still be here when you come back, and the sky won't have fallen in for anyone not having an up to date winapp2 file xx

OS: Windows 7 Home Premimum x-64

 

What is the entry that behaves like the Windows XP Shellbags but for Windows 7 machines? IOWs to remove folder customizations please?

 

I thought those thinking they were "Cached Shell Extensions" were requested for removal from winapp2.ini not too long ago, but I could be wrong.
