jzrf6c Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'd like to see an option to have CCleaner stop all unnecessary background programs from running. This would allow simualtors to run faster. Another option along the same lines is to clean up and free unused memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted February 12, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 12, 2013 title edited 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.

Moderators mta Posted February 13, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 13, 2013 putting a definition on "unnecessary background programs" will be a sticking point. it's a very subjective field and as such each user will have different opinions on what should be stopped. CC certainly should not blindly stop all background tasks, at best, it would need to ask some sort of question as to which ones to stop. as to cleaning and freeing memory, I don't feel that's an area a (traditionally) junk file removing tool should go into. albeit a nice feature, I just want a crap remover tool, not a swiss-army knife type tool, bloated with features that are covered well by existing tools. but, you never know, if the Dev team like the idea and people vote in the positive - who can say. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

Guest Keatah Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I played with those game optimizers that disable "un-needed" processes. Caused nothing but trouble, and no perfomance gain. Who's to say what processes should be turned off? The rules the the author of the program comes up with won't be applicable to everyone. This is one are of system "cleaning" you need to manually research. For each and every process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
