Hi all,
I see that we now have the option to Shutdown the machine once CCleaner is running in the background, but I was wondering would it be possible to add to CCleaner's context menu (in addition to the already existing Shutdown), the option to "Hibernate After Clean", as some people don't necessarily want to completely shutdown their machines, and prefer to just Hibernate once they've finished...

Here's hoping

Thanks

Ed

There is no hibernate.exe like there is for shutdown.exe in C:\WINDOWS\system32 Folder so I doubt it would be possible.

It should be an easy feature to add.


XP + Vista (maybe earlier aswell):
rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState Hibernate

Vista Only:
shutdown /h

@mushu13 - Exactly what I was thinking could be added, as I use this command line in Newsleecher to tell it to hibernate when it's finished downloading:

rundll32 powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState

@Yokenny - Close, but no banana

Here's hoping it might be added one day...

This can be achieved using WSH.

DIM Wsh
Set Wsh = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

Wsh.Run "C:\Program Files\CCleaner\CCleaner.exe /AUTO", 1, True 'The True flag causes WSH to wait for CC to exit
Wsh.Run "RunDll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState", 1, False 'We use False flag so WSH isnt running while in hibernate

Set Wsh = nothing
WScript.Quit

Open Notepad. Copy & paste. Adjust the path for CCleaner.exe on line 4 as needed. File menu, Save As (not save) for the file name type: CCSleep.vbs
In the file type box, click the drop down and select "All files"

Edit: This assumes you enabled the option in CC to close after cleaning

CC always closes automatically with the /AUTO switch.

Thanks for the correction. I picked that up from another thread.

[egnm1969]

Haven't I seen you somewhere before on this forum Disk4mat ?
Yet again Disk4mat you've outdone yourself I just tried the script you left and it worked fine apart from one correction. Seems the vbs script under XP only accepts ye olde 8.3 filenaming as I had to rename line 4 to:

Wsh.Run "C:\Progra~1\CCleaner\CCleaner.exe /AUTO", 1, True 'The True flag causes WSH to wait for CC to exit

... as it balked at the Joliet method. Strange but true... it's probably my laptop

Well this quickfix will do for the mo, and hopefully someone at Piriform might one day incorporate this request into CCleaner to make it even better than it is already now

Thanks Disk4mat & everyone else who helped out for this fix... Much appreciated
