3.19.1721 Removes Firefox Profiles !


Recommended Posts

I just upgraded to 3.19.1721 and it was a disaster. It erased my Firfox profile files. I only asked to clear cache and history. It took an 1 hour to recover the profiles from an old backup. I uninstalled it and loaded version 3.17. FIX THIS!!!!

I believe the team are unable to recreate this yet.

 

Are you using custom profile locations? http://www.piriform.com/docs/ccleaner/advanced-usage/ccleaner-ini-files/how-to-clean-user-data-from-non-standard-mozilla-browsers

 

if so please post what you have (exactly) in your INI as the location

 

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.

When I ran ccleaner it sped along until it hit firefox/profiles at about (42%) and then it crawled viewing each file for about 5 seconds. I let it run for an hour and it remained at 42%, so I cancelled. What is going on?

I was running Firefox 12 under Windows Vista SP2.

Could you take a screenshot of your options in CCleaner (mainly under Firefox/Mozilla)?

Do you mean Firefox profiles or (site) passwords/accounts?

Are you using custom profile locations? http://www.piriform....ozilla-browsers

if so please post what you have (exactly) in your INI as the location

 

More info, please.

@grafx without further information from you the community has no way of "fixing" this. are you no longer interested in a resolution?

 

The developers do read all threads and if we are able to here in the forum collect data from you, if this is a bug it can be squashed.
