CCleaner and Opera 12.12 x64 Favicons

A moment ago I had 723 entries in my Opera 12.12 favicons folder, giving a complete history of where I'd used this browser since I last manually cleaned it out about 2 months ago. I would add this folder to CCleaner myself, but because the AppData folder is "hidden" :-) in Windows 7, CCleaner won't allow it.

That is strange - it is NOT hidden to me on 64 bit Windows 7.

I have no trouble accessing

C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Local\

which corresponds to %LocalAppData% in my profile.

N.B

This is NOT accessible to me :- C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Local\Application Data\

but that is not on the route to %LocalAppData%\Opera\Opera x64\icons

My point is that Microsoft does not want users inside the ........\AppData folder and so unless you tell your file manager to display hidden folders, it won't be seen. And CCleaner does not display hidden folders when you're trying to add one as an option to be cleaned. I wish it would.

If you are an experienced enough user, as you seem to be, and understand about hidden folders then just unhide and add them yourself.

 

I can only imagine what kind of reports we would get here if display hidden folders was a ccleaner tickbox. Some folk just tick everything thinking they will get a better clean.
