johnoo Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I use CCleaner version 4.01.4093 every night at closedown. Generally it cleans out about 45Mb but recently it has starting cleaning out about 130/135Mb. I have not changed any of the settings. Any reason known? I am using IE with XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winapp2.ini Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 It's hard to say but I guess it could be caused by more web browsing. It's difficult to say because CCleaner cleans based on your personal usage. winapp2.ini additions thread winapp2.ini github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted May 22, 2013 Moderators Share Posted May 22, 2013 @johnoo, have you tried doing Analyze before a Run Cleaner to see if it shows where the increase is coming from? 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.

Will try to do this tonight, but have not got any records of previous cleaning cycles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted May 22, 2013 Moderators Share Posted May 22, 2013 when your previous cleaning cycles had done, if you looked at the report it gives stating what it found, you may have a 'feel' for what it used to find, compared that to what it is finding now. something may stick out.

nodles Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Do you have "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 24 hours" ticked in CCleaner Options/Advanced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnoo Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 Do you have "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 24 hours" ticked in CCleaner Options/Advanced? Yes, this is Checked in Options/Advanced. Just done a check at closedown, Total amount to be cleaned is 175.8Mb Majority of this is IE Temp Files 114,462Kb & System Temp files 65,391Kb I'm not concerned about the IE stuff, but I think it is a lot higher than a few weeks ago, any reason, as I have used the Internet about the same amount? Also what are the System Temp Files, I have nothing in the Recycle Bin? Hope somebody can help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
