Caz1964 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Thanks @nukecad-I might be making more of an issue than needed here. Just curious and perhaps the Vendor did advise the changes specifically on the update verses prior. If not, it does help to see that as you have mentioned here. I provided a compare of cleaning-both versions (no changes between either version). Now I just don't see where the CHROME ext. addresses come from. We will see what updates come in the future~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caz1964 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Did not allow the image I now see above. Anyway, it was just a compare of both versions and results ( 0 issues verses the 2 and 4 extensions/Chrome-Edge) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoyan Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 1. Remove all browser extensions. 2. Don't use Google Chrome or Edge browsers. 3. If the problem persist, copy the file from ccleaner, save it to file explorer. 4. Open the file with 0 kb in Notepad, copy it and erase it. Case closed. P.S. -- When I'm available will make a video demonstration. Have a great day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators nukecad Posted April 3 Moderators Share Posted April 3 @Stoyan, that is not very helpful at all. People want to use browser extensions. People want to use Chrome and Edge. & 4. Doing that will not prevent the files from being recreated next time you use the browser. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?

SumGuy Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Just wanted to mention that CCleaner v6.23 no longer shows entries for the Edge/Google Chrome cookies before or after running Custom Clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually , it does show entries for cookies for Edge and Chrome if there are cookies in there. If all that's in there are the browser extension placeholders , they no longer show.

Is anyone who has updated to the latest CCleaner v6.23 (rel. 17-Apr-2023) still seeing "leftovers" like the ones shown in nukecad's 14-Mar-2024 image <here> (e.g., with descriptors like "Cookie: extension://nkeimhogjdpnpccoofpliimaahmaaom") after they use CCleaner v6.23's Custom Clean to clean their Chrome and/or MS Edge browser cookies? Posting an image of what you observe would be helpful. Note that I'm still on CCleaner v6.21 and skipped the update to v6.22, in part because of this bug. --------- Dell Inspiron 15 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v22H2 build 19045.4291 * Firefox v125.0.1 * Microsoft Edge v123.0.2420.97 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.24030.9-1.1.24030.4 * Malwarebytes Premium v4.6.12.323-1.0.2309 * Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.7783 * CCleaner Free Portable v6.21.10918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SumGuy Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Sorry for the confusion, it was bedtime when I posted that. I meant that the previously mentioned anomalous Edge/Google Chrome extension cookie leftovers seem to be resolved in CCleaner v6.23. I can confirm that other cookies are in fact still detected and cleaned normally. Even though many show a file size of 0 KB, so we still really can't be sure what's actually being cleaned, or what may be "empty containers". Maybe it would be a good idea to have the option to view results in bytes? First analysis: Google Chrome Cookies: Analysis AFTER Cleaning: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tested Edge and the current version of Ccleaner (6.23) does indeed clean the cookies and afterwards , since only the extension placeholders are the only thing in there , the entry for cookies is not displayed.

jagged Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 (edited) I just updated to 6.23.11010. I no longer see the empty Edge and Google cookie remnants when a cleaning is complete. Likewise, when I look at Options > Cookies on Computer, there is no longer the extension://nkeimhogj... However, under Cookies on Computer, there is still a www.ccleaner.com cookie.

lmacri Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Thanks to everyone who provided feedback. Further to my 15-Mar-2024 post <here> about my built-in MS Edge browser extensions, I can confirm that this bug appears to be fixed in CCleaner v6.23. I use CCleaner Free Portable and ran test Custom Cleans ("Analyze" only, did not click "Run Cleaner" to proceed with the disk clean) with v6.21, v6.22 and v6.23 today. The buggy v6.22 found 20 MS Edge "cookies" to clean, including 3 extensions with descriptors like "Cookie: extension://nkeimhogjdpnpccoofpliimaahmaaom" ... ...while v6.21 and v6.23 both only found 17 "cookies" as expected. I ran a second scan with v6.23, but this time I clicked "Run Cleaner" to proceed with the disk clean, and all MS Edge cookies were correctly cleaned and no residual cookies were detected on a third scan. --------- Dell Inspiron 15 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v22H2 build 19045.4291 * Firefox v125.0.1 * Microsoft Edge v123.0.2420.97 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.24030.9-1.1.24030.4 * Malwarebytes Premium v4.6.12.323-1.0.2309 * Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.7783 * CCleaner Free Portable v6.23.11010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The release notes at https://www.ccleaner.com/ccleaner/version-history for the latest CCleaner v6.24.11060 (rel. 23-May-2024) state in part that "We've enhanced our cookie cleaning in Chromium browsers for even greater thoroughness." Does anyone know what this means? If "enhanced" cookie cleaning means that Piriform / Avast is making another attempt to clean data stored in Chromium browser extensions then that's definitely not something I want, and I'm going to have to disable cookie cleaning for MS Edge in my CCleaner v6.24 Custom Clean settings. ----------- Dell Inspiron 15 5584 * 64-bit Win 10 Pro v22H2 build 19045.4412 * Firefox v126.0.0 * Microsoft Edge v125.0.2535.51 * Microsoft Defender v4.18.24040.4 -1.1.24040.1 * Malwarebytes Premium v5.1.4.112-1.0.1244 * Macrium Reflect Free v8.0.7783 * CCleaner Free Portable 6.23.11010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
