This is a problem that has plagued every release of CCleaner, and has yet to be resolved. You are given the option under Advanced to have certain files/folders deleted when you do a basic cleanup. I add the folder %systemroot%\Prefetch or C:\Windows\Prefetch and it never empties the folder. Plus, I have selected other various files to delete and they are never removed per my request. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Have you ticked the 'Custom files and folders' box under CCleaners advanced section (Under the cleaners Windows tab)

Thanks, JDPower. It worked exactly as you stated. I appreciate it.
