davesanibel Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 In the sub directory Users > Name > App Data> Local > Packages, one finds further sub directories for all the Microsoft installed apps. Each of these apps records its own listing of cached internet data and cookies (look under the AC sub directory in each app). Can CCleaner be configured to delete these caches / cookies?

davesanibel Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 One follow up point. The free malware product Superantispyware, does pick up the "packages" cookies and caches, and allows cleaning of same. The drawback is that Superantispyware scans all files and takes time to run. But it seems that the ability to locate these files could be handled by CCleaner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted August 5, 2016 Moderators Share Posted August 5, 2016 Many of these are already cleaned by ccleaner and even more by the community winapp2 file, found in the sticky in the ccleaner discussion board in my image the ones without a star are cleaned by ccleaner without add-ons the ones with * are from winapp2 you can see common apps like facebook and twitter, which have the cache and coookies like you say, are already in ccleaner 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.
