dcrane37 Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I'm a newbie to CCleaner and was wondering if there is a way to configure the settings for CCLeaner for multiple users withing Windows XP? I want to set the app to NOT delete the cookies and to run at startup for every user that may logon to a Windows XP machine. However, I've found that the settings revert to the standard setup when a new user logs on. Can this be done? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFiresInTheSky Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 welcome to the CC forums Ccleaner cannot clean accross multiple profiles but you can create a shortcut with the /autorun parameter and place it in the startmenu>startup. this would clean everything out as soon as the user logs on. i or someone else can help you out if you need more assistance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that it won't clean across multiple profiles. What I want it to save specific settings across multiple profiles. I do NOT want to clean the cookies on all profiles. I want every user that logs on to the PC to use the SAME settings so it clean their profile to my specific setup. Doable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFiresInTheSky Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 i see what you mean now. what you need to do is log onto each account and make the settings you want for that account. every account can have different settings for ccleaner.

Moderators Andavari Posted September 28, 2006 Moderators Share Posted September 28, 2006 Like Aaron stated you'll have to log onto each user account to get CC configured for everyone, then using the very last part of this thread you can create one shortcut that deals with all user profiles.

Hmmm.....That's not going to work. I want to deploy it on over 150 machines in 5 different buildings. There could be any one of over 300 people that could log on to the machines. There's no way I can do it by manually logging in as every possible user. I'll keep looking for a configurable app. Maybe this could be included in a future upgrade. Thanks.

DanF0413 Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I do not have time to test it but figure out where your settings are save and if they are saved in the users profile go in and add the custome settings to the defaul user profile of each computer. You may also be able to create an install scrip for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted February 12, 2007 Moderators Share Posted February 12, 2007 CCleaner can now have all settings saved into the .ini file CCleaner.ini, you just have to enable it in: Options > Advanced > Save all settings to INI file Rather this works for multiple user accounts I don't know.
