Moderators nukecad Posted July 18, 2020 Moderators Share Posted July 18, 2020 CCleaner would/should not be cleaning your download folder. (Unless you had specifically made it an include). There is no setting in CCleaner for it because it doesn't do it. I would suspect that if you have not run another cleaner the it is Windows itself that has cleared the Downloads. Disc Clean-up has a tickbox for the Downloads folder, but Storage Sense would be my bet. When turned on Storage sense runs automatically either when needed or however many days you have set - and it will clear Downloads unless it is set to never do that. Edit. Here's a coincidence. I've been fixing and updating a laptop today, taking it from Win10 1607 to 1909, and as I was looking through the drivers a notification popped up to tell me that Windows had kindly turned on Storage Sense for me. (Whether I wanted it on or not). *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?
