BarryC Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Hi Just installed Win 10, ran CC with option for cleaning Edge ticked but the summary then states, after cleaning, "Skipped"........ideas please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted August 1, 2015 Moderators Share Posted August 1, 2015 Starting with edge, ccleaner must have all browser windows closed and any applications that use edge to render must also be closed 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.

Guest MrV Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Hi, this might be happening because CCleaner was unable to access the Edge database for cleaning. If you re-run cleaning after the first skip, does the consecutive run of CCleaner still skip Edge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigameer Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Having the same problem. I have shut everything that edge would use down and ran it numerous times but the results are the same. CCleaner is skipping the edge files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted August 5, 2015 Moderators Share Posted August 5, 2015 just throwing an idea out there. on the assumption that no Edge stuff is running when the PC is in Safe Mode, try running CC then and see if the same issue arises. 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.

RBaker69 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 If you are using the free version of CCleaner, you have to manually kill the process 'dllhost.exe' prior to cleaning. I find the easiest way to do it is through Process Explorer. You could also make a .bat file similar to this: @echo offtaskkill /f /im dllhost.exestart "" "C:\Program Files\CCleaner\CCleaner64.exe" /AUTO If you have CCleaner PRO, choose 'Options' then 'Monitoring'. Uncheck the box 'Enable Browser Monitoring'. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcobelina Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Ive never used edge I cant find the dllhost.exe on task manager Im pretty sure edge was cleaning normally up until the latest version 5.14.5493 64 bit any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
