CCleaner crash Windows 7 Services !

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 05:52:05 -0500

So, this is the problem that i was getting in my new Windows 7 Ultimate 64bits installation without knowing the culprit:

QUOTE

if i try to disable a service from manual or automatic, no problems, but when i try to go from disable to manual or automatic, i receive a message error: The system cannot find the path specified. But if a go to registry, i can change the startup type with no problems and it works, but for some reason, after the change (Man/Auto to Dis then change from dis to Man/Auto on registry)when i try to change from manual or automatic to disable like before, now i�ve got the same error. Any idea what is going wrong ?

So i�ve decide reinstall everything again and test with image points (using acronis trueimage). Every thing was fine until i�ve run CCleaner (not registry). After the clean, the problems starts. With some " restore/test" i�ve discovered the problem:

QUOTE

When you check Advanced Windows files/IIS Log Files, CCleaner clean inside this folder: C:\Windows\System32\LogFiles. Unfortunately, inside this folder there is another folder called Scm, which unlike other windows versions (XP doesn�t have it; Vista 32 have it with SCM.EVM file that can�t be deleted), is empty on 7. So CCleaner understand that this folder can be deleted, and the problem with services starts to occurs.

Recreating this folder, all problems go away.
So, my recomendation is: disable IIS Log files clean !!!
Maybe a next release of CCleaner can also ignore this folder by default, even with IIS Log files enable.

Scheduled cleaning

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 13:49:09 -0500

I'd like to request a new feature to ccleaner. Please include an automatic cleaning feature so that nightly or hourly it can clean the cache. It could help for public computers.

Corrupt File Notification on removing restore point

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 13:43:34 -0500

Problem with System Restore - removing Restore points.

Ccleaner Vers 2.25.1025,
Vista Home Prem SP2
2Gb RAM,Intel dual cpu T2310@1.46Ghz, Mobile Intel 965 express chipset family.

When using 'Tools',System restore,then removing a restore point - the following warning appears on pressing 'OK' to remove.
"Piriform ccleaner:ccleaner.exe File Volume Data\System\volume information is corrupt & unreadable.
Please run Chkdisk."

The utility does remove the highlighted Restore Point but the above warning is displayed each time.
Running Chkdisk and reinstalling ccleaner have had no effect.

I apologise,in advance,if this has been covered elsewhere or this is not the correct place for my contact.

First Look Pro program files being removed by Ccleaner

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 13:22:47 -0500

We have several computers with the First Look Pro program and after installing CCleaner the First look pro program needed to be reinstalled and the install takes a lot of time.
Is there a patch or workaround so the CCleaner program can be used or are the users out of luck ?

Improve Better Cleaning, in CCleaner

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 09:43:54 -0500

CCleaner has been Rated #1, for cleaning your PC of Debris, Tracking, Harddrive Space etc..

But it's NOT the best(that I have found) and other Software are in the same line.

For People like me to whom would like to Protect their Privacy etc., I have found that CCleaner even when you use the "Secure File Deletion - 35x" setting that Data can be recovered using "Recuva", which means that if a FREE Software can recover Deleted Data, it's NOT being erased "permanently" as people are assuming. Even items in the Recycle Bin can be recovered, in my opinion, that is NOT secure file deletion!

How, I know cus I've tried to cover Internet Browsing History, Deleted Recycle Bins items, & even Empty Space from the HD, all were recovered, in a matter of mins.

Needless to say that I am impressed with CCleaner, it does remove what it states But unfortunately NOT permanently

I would like to Suggest that there can be improvements to make sure that anything that is deleted, is permanently gone, and can't be recovered by any means, maybe change the "Secure File Deletion" settings from 35x to 100x or even unlimited. But make sure that it works, & permanently!

Keep uo the Good Work!

Firefox cookie delete

If I delete all cookies using the Firefox cookie delete function, will CCleaner prevent deletion of the cookies I have set up to save?

Automate

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:12:17 -0500

Have just started using CCleaner since ZA did away with Cache Cleaner. What I am trying to do is to get CCleaner to carry out an automatic clean once a day, preferably unattended. I ma running WinXPPro and IE8. I seem to have two problems.

1. To get CCleaner to carry out an automatic clean without me having to restart the computer/login etc.

2. To do this automatically at a scheduled time from hibernation without having to use a password.

Am I wishing for the moon?

Firefox & CCleaner cookies

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 12:06:04 -0500

I am running Firefox and using CCleaner to manage my cookies. I have successfully set up my list of cookies to save.

My problem is when I go to cookies in CCleaner it shows no cookies to delete but if I look at the cookie list in Firefox, there is a long list of cookies.

How do I delete all of these cookies without deleting those cookies I want to keep?

Firefox 2.x cookies not deleting with latest version

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:00:43 -0500

I go into cookies and the cookies are still there even though it shows no cookies to be deleted! This latest version is completely bugged with Firefox 2. I know it's old but I have not found anyone willing to take the Lolifox theme and upgrade it to Firefox 3.x and I hate any other theme.. so continue to use 2.x since it has the look I like.

Currently went back to 2.13.720 and it works fine.

Request...

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 10:46:48 -0500

I was thinking that Piriform could make a new software called Tweaker or something.
It should offer similar features to TweakXP but be able to adapt to whichever version of windows it's on (like CCleaner)

Just a little suggestion, can you add netscape in your list of browser ? I know it's an old browser but somebody use it for test...

Thanks.
