Iowa Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I use both Internet Explorer and Google Chrome as browsers. Does CCleaner automatically remove internet history, for both these browsers, when the "run cleaner" and then the "ok" buttons are clicked?

Moderators mta Posted January 22, 2017 Moderators Share Posted January 22, 2017 as long as the settings haven't been modified, then Yes. the options for History (IE) and Internet History (Chrome) are ticked be default. MS has made changes recently to IE in how data is stored, and CC has changed to cater for that, and some users are seeing slow CC runtimes or history not being cleaned, so get back to us if that is your experience. 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.

Moderators Nergal Posted January 22, 2017 Moderators Share Posted January 22, 2017 Be sure both browsers are exited before cleaning 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.

Corona Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I use FF and I noticed recently that it is not only memorizing my login names for various web sites (by using auto-fill when I hover over a blank fill-in bar), but it is also starting to memorize one of my recent passwords. I don't believe it's a History thing, but I can't find anywhere in FF options how to shut off auto-fill. Is it maybe a Windows thing? (I have Win7.) I don't recall ever turning that on if I ever came across it. And I don't remember where to find that as well. I hate growing old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trium Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I can't find anywhere in FF options how to shut off auto-fill i mean its in ff-options --> data protection (privacy) --> chronik --> create --> change to "after custom settings..." saves the entered search terms and form data --> deactivate this item :-) i dont know how the exact terms are in the english ff Versions of CCleaner Cloud; Introduction Ccleaner Cloud; Ccleaner-->System-Requirements; Ccleaner FAQ´s; Ccleaner builds; Scheduling Ccleaner Free Es ist möglich, keine Fehler zu machen und dennoch zu verlieren. Das ist kein Zeichen von Schwäche. Das ist das Leben -> "Picard" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corona Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Trium, I went into the Privacy settings in FF and the closest thing I could find to disable 'auto-fill' was this (with an on/off checkbox)... "Remember search and form history" "Form history" is the closest term that I assume would match "auto-fill" in FF. So I turned it off. Then I turned it on again. Then off again. Then on again. Then off again. Five minutes later I got a call from some woman in Cambodia. She said, "Stop doing that." On a more serious note, I'll see if turning it 'off' has any effect when I reboot FF later.
