CCleaner always makes Regedit forget LastKey

Recommended Posts

Under "Applications >Windows > RegEdit", the check box has no affect. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit (value LastKey) always gets deleted after running CCleaner. XP Pro.

Although this probably needs its own topic, I also noticed this version doesn't clean anything for Chrome. I used "Include" to add:

 

C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache\*.*

and

C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\History*.*

I guess this has been dropped since there is a workaroung. Just makes me wonder what else requires manual intervention to clean or prevent from cleaning. :-/

 

I have not been able to recreate your issue. Please make sure you don't have rogue chrome processes running (sometimes caused by things like Cloud Print, etc)

Actually, I don't use Chrome that much, except for Google sites that screwup without it. I don't have any extentions except for the "Default Extension 1.0" whatever that is, that I can't get rid of.

 

I'll try to remove the "Includes" again tomorrow. i just noticed the history didn't go away, so i hit it with a bigger hammer.

history in chrome is often stored on google 's servers

 

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.

Well, that's steaky of them. Anyway, when I "Included"

 

C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache\*.*

and

C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\History*.*

 

it goes away.
