Can you quickly fix the bug that does not delete zero byte length files when secure deletion is selected.

This bug appears to have arisen at version v1.39.502


Many thanks

Joe

Version 1.40 has fixed that issue. Download it here.
Complexity of incoherent design.

Just had a thought, the secure file deletion should also scramble the filename prior to deletion as well as data in non-zero length files and should obviously still securely delete zero byte length files.

I'm still getting this problem in 1.4
Message reads "CCleaner has encountered a problem and needs to close..."
The folder concerned appears to have been cleaned, though, and re-opening CCleaner and running it the second time it works normally.

Still doing it. Bug appears un-fixed to me.
