I want to add all of my CCleaner settings and saved cookies to my daily backup routine in case of a HD failure. I would like to be able to reinstall CCleaner and restore the file or files with that data in so I don't have to start all over.
Does anyone know where that data is stored?
Thanks
Floyd

They are stored in C:\Program Files\CCleaner\CCleaner.ini as long as you have Save all settings to INI file checked in Options then Advanced.

But I don't see any of that. I guess you mean:
Go to internet \ extra \ internet options \ advanced \
then where is it?

I have the Dutch version of Windows XP service pack 2.

Hi,
In the CCleaner window you will see the OPTIONS function listed on the left..
Click on that then click on Advanced button.
Good Luck,
