nodles Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 A button for rescanning the entries/applications in CCleaner (like "rescan" or "scan" or "recheck" or "check"). Wouldn't have to close and reopen CCleaner to rescan the entries found/applications installed; would be easier/faster to use & test entries.

Winapp2.ini Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Would be an interesting addition, albiet it is sort of a developer-mode type of thing. Maybe could be made accessible through a launcher option (ccleaner.exe -dev or something) winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crni Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 If this is related to installed apps under Tools, hitting F5 should be able to refresh them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodles Posted December 5, 2011 Author Share Posted December 5, 2011 Not in the Tools, but under the "Cleaner". Though I just tried F5/refresh that also and it look liked refreshing it, have to make some entry and test it more later. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winapp2.ini Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 It actually does work in the list of cleaning entries if you hit F5. I just tried it. Neat! I didn't know that previously. winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crni Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I'm not sure I understand the "problem" Why don't you just hit "Analyze" button again once cleaning/analysis is done? Same for "Scan for issues" under Registry tab. Though, it would be nice to have some kind of Refresh button under Tools as F5 is not obvious.

nodles Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 "Analyze" doesn't "scan" the entries/programs installed. CCleaner scans them when you launch CCleaner or when you hit F5. True, F5 wasn't obvious for me. It usually doesn't work in softwares like it does in Explorer/Windows or browsers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winapp2.ini Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Crni ~ The idea is a refresh (f5) to force CCleaner to repopulate its list of cleaning entries, to reflect changes either to your installed software or to winapp2.ini without having to close and reopen ccleaner winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted December 6, 2011 Moderators Share Posted December 6, 2011 Great for us Winapp2.ini entry testers. . . for everyone else you might as well ignore this thread as f5 will do nothing unless you are activly editing Win*2.ini files 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.

Super Fast Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I have oft wished for CCleaner to auto-update the uninstall section to reflect the fact that you just uninstalled an app myself... Very good idea... Would love if Ccleaner rescanned the installed application list. +1 No, wait, + 10! LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted December 23, 2011 Moderators Share Posted December 23, 2011 not what this discussion is about superfast but I do support what you are sayin ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
