Cleaning with the:
Advanced
Custom Files and Folders

When Adding files to the "Custom Files and Folders" list, is it possible to use wild cards. For example I have many folders on my L: partition. I would like to have CCleaner delete all of the files named d3plot, d3plot01, d3plot02... etc in every folder on the complete L: partition.

Could I add a line something like --- L:\\\d3plot??.*
to have CCleaner to delete only the d3plot** files on the complete L: partition?

Example of file locations.

Al,

It wouldn't take more than a few minutes to set up a dummy folder with a few copied files in it and try it.

Rgds.
