I have never heard of a subkey. do you mean a value ?

 

I for one would prefer that CCleaner maintain its reputation as being safer than the common herd of registry cleaners and boosters.

It would be harmful if Piriform developers incorporated a rudimentary REG.EXE so that Winapp2.ini users have enhanced unsupervised super-killer capabilities.

 

I normally run CCleaner from a BAT script launched from a desktop short-cut.

The script first wipes out all the foreign language subdirectories that come with every Xmarks update in Firefox profile.

This script could also easily cause the merge of a previously exported and edited REG file with chosen non-zero default values.

All under user control and user responsibility.

 

Definition: A key in the Windows Registry can be thought of like a file folder. A key that sits within another key is called a "subkey". Source: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/termss/g/registy_subkey.htm

 

Microsoft recognize the term 'Subkey'. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310516

Titles like that can be edited by members themselves in their profiles after so many posts, although I don't remember how many it takes.

Yes, I am happy with the definition that a key is "like a file folder".

 

Not so happy about a subkey.

I prefer Child-key because all keys are descendent of a hive, and each key can have a parent and also its own set of children.

I believe I can do what I like to any key regardless of its position in a family tree, subject only to access restrictions.

 

I asked because I was confused by these two statements :-

"The paths listed above have diff. subkeys each time. I didn't want to delete the CpMRU, PageSetup, PropertyStore and Stats keys but, there is no option to delete subkeys."

and

"I didn't want to delete the Cached key itself I wanted to delete all the values on pane but, there was no option to do that."

 

I have not tried to get CCleaner to delete registry values and will accept that CCleaner cannot.

So far as I am concerned it is possible to delete any subkey.

Been there, Done that.

My experience is that CCleaner also has that capability where write/delete access is allowed,

hence I wondered if you were referring to the same thing when saying "there is no option to delete subkeys" and "wanted to delete all the values".

 

N.B.

I quite fancy the title "Registry Death Dealer"

 

When I needed to update Comodo Firewall with a clean install the initial uninstall left a family of 2000 registry keys behind.

Totally inaccessible and unremoveable, and blocking the intended upgrade.

RegEdit could not touch them.

They never saw me coming - zapped in 5 minutes (including making ERUNT backups just in-case).

 

I could tell you how I did that - but I fear a moderator would take me out ! !

I see [adobe flashplayer more*] was removed from Winapp2. Shouldn't these be removed anymore?:

Also right after [Opera More*] in Winapp2.ini, it gets out of order chronologically. Goes from O's back to C listings.

Oh, ok. I know they're under LangSecRef 3026, but for a better flow for all the entrys before and after, if Mozilla Firefox was added to the names? (i.e. Mozilla Firefox Crash Reports, Mozilla Firefox Dump Files)

 

Also, shouldn't Octoshape and Opera More* be with the O's?

re: [Windows Live Messenger More*]

 

FileKey8=%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Windows Live\.cache|*.*|RECURSE

FileKey9=%LocalLowAppData%\Microsoft\Windows Live\Setup|*.*|RECURSE

 

These two lines cause Windows Live Messenger and WLMAil not to be able to be removed. At least for the WinXP version.

 

Is there a Windows XP user who has WL Mail installed who wouldn't mind uploading the contents of the two folders to a website so I can uninstall mine? There will be no privacy issues here.....

I have WLM installed on WinXP... what do you need? :)

 

AppData\LocalLow doesn't exist on WinXP. But I see it on my Win7 laptop - The Setup folder is empty and so is the tmp subfolder.

I've got the contents of the .cache folder zipped - a little over 23MB. The msi's don't compact much. Let me know if that is what you want.

I found http://www.vistapcguy.net/?p=173 which says that locallowappdatya is valid for vista so it would be nice if %LocalLowAppData% was docuents in the first post of this thread.

 

I did find a zapmessenger.exe that removed WLMessenger so was hoping to find someone who could send me compressed copies of the follwing folders on their system:

 

FileKey8=%ProgramFiles%\Common Files\Windows Live\.cache|*.*|RECURSE

FileKey9=%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows Live\Setup|*.*|RECURSE

 

call the first one PF.zip and the 2nd one LAD.zip - then tell me the web addresses of =where they are stored. I'll download them and go from there.

The first one deletes everything, the second one deletes just the logs, and the lasts gets rid of the database. ***Warning*** deleting the database slows the programs(adds a few seconds) load time, as it has to rebuild the database.

No Setup subfolder. The only thing there is:

 

%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Live\SqmApi

 

The SqmApi folder is empty.

Winapp2.ini Version: v1.0.110809

 

 

this kills my contact list!? is/was this intended?

don't like; glad I had a recent backup ...

 

otherwise: great work, thanks!

 

FileKey3=%AppData%\Skype\*|main.db

 

By deleting/wiping main.db does not effect contact list. It wipes the things listed here ONLY:

 

Chat History

Call History

 

by deleting 'config.xml' from the location listed here will delete the contact list:

 

%AppData%\Skype\*

 

Where * is Skype user account.

 

In your case where your Skype contacts were gone. If you remove the whole Skype account folder from the location listed here: %AppData%\Skype\

 

And login back to Skype, you will get your contact list back.
