eteran Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 many installers leave cruft behind. A prime example of this would be nVidia which can store gigabytes of temporary installer files in both: C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\Installer2\ and C:\NVIDIA\ To my knowledge, both of these directories can be emptied with no real downsides. I'd love to see a section for cleaning up all sorts of installers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted May 5, 2017 Moderators Share Posted May 5, 2017 OK I know what cruft is, but the origin of the word still makes me chuckle. Wiki will still tell you that the origin is unknown. I like the explanation that goes as follows- Crufts is the worlds largest pedigree dog show. As you can imagine after such a show there is a lot of dog cruft to clean up. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?

trium Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 C:\NVIDIA\ this can you delete manually or with the include-option. but the other "temporary installer" should perhaps stay, if i remember me darkly https://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=43683&hl=nvidia 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.
