schwobj Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Regedit normally remembers the last registry key location, so that next time you open it, it takes you straight to the last viewed registry key. I like that feature. Unfortunately it appears that running CCleaner gets rid of the last registry key location. Is there a way of disabling this? I've tried un-checking 'RegEdit' under Applications/Windows, but that doesn't seem to have the desired effect. Thanks for any help you can provide.

This is what it contains which is removing the RegEdit MRU: [Other Explorer MRUs] ID=1011 LangSecRef=3002 LangRef=3124 Default=True RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32 RegKey2=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FindComputerMRU RegKey3=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\PrnPortsMRU RegKey4=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Map Network Drive MRU RegKey5=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComputerDescriptions RegKey6=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Direct3D\MostRecentApplication|Name RegKey7=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Direct3D\MostRecentApplication|Name RegKey8=HKLM\Software\Microsoft\DirectDraw\MostRecentApplication RegKey9=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\DirectInput\MostRecentApplication|Id RegKey10=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\DirectInput\MostRecentApplication|Name RegKey11=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\WordWheelQuery RegKey12=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TypedPaths RegKey13=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit|LastKey RegKey14=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Wallpaper\MRU RegKey15=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Wallpapers\Images Hmm, upon looking into this for you I realized that's why my wallpaper folder is always forgotten. Would be nice if Piriform separated some of those MRUs for a more tailored configuration. Edited January 15, 2016 by Andavari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted January 15, 2016 Moderators Share Posted January 15, 2016 Just looked again, you will need to untick both of these since they'll both remove the RegEdit MRU: * Cleaner > Windows (tab) > Windows Explorer > Other Explorer MRUs * Cleaner > Applications (tab) > Windows > RegEdit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trium Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 whats the difference between both? both delete last registry location...

Moderators Andavari Posted January 15, 2016 Moderators Share Posted January 15, 2016 Correct Trium they both delete this: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit|LastKey I made a post for the bug fixers to report it since it's a duplication, so if someone wanted to keep the MRU they'd never know there were two items in CCleaner to untick/disable.

Moderators Nergal Posted January 15, 2016 Moderators Share Posted January 15, 2016 You can use ccleaner's exclude section to tailor some of those not to remove 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.
