Clean $LogFile


Recommended Posts

Some time ago I read that NTFS was more reliable than FAT because Microsoft had copied journalling and transaction logging from UNIX

 

I believed that Microsoft would copy from others.

I doubted that the result would be more reliable - UNTIL :-

My Laptop with a single HDD lost all 3 off NTFS partitions and 3 off FAT32 and FAT partitions due to damage to the partition tables,

and Minitool Boot Recovery CD fixed the partition tables and the MBR, and then everything worked - EXCEPTING

That when Windows first booted it insisted that Chkdsk had to run on one of the FAT32 partitions,

and it fixed a vast amount of corruption there.

Windows tolerated all the other partitions but I ran Chkdsk anyway and the other FAT partitions had a significant amount of corruption,

but the NTFS partitions just had a few minor security issues.

 

I suggest that by removing this $Logfile the NTFS partition will be much less reliable, as bad as and possibly worse than FAT32,

and it would be irresponsible for CCleaner to purge this file.
