Greetings,

I've been using CCleaner for years, even before the whole Piriform thing. Great changes BTW, love the pear :P [and the complete rewrite in C++!!!!]

The only thing making us still use Privacy Guardian for our clients, is the software's inability to delete temporary files within our users computers.

The Documents & Settings etc. are all mapped to non-standard directories, so I don't know how Privacy Guardian succeeds in its deletion of those file, all I know is that it does.

In your next CCleaner release, please add support for this.

Thanks in advance,

Panarchy

Privacy Guardian is NOT free.

It costs money and resources - it runs in the background.

Perhaps it just observes on-the-fly the creation by various browsers of *.tmp etc. where ever they are dumped,
so that when it thinks they are not needed it can go back and kill them.

Alan

That could not be possible, as I install the software on a Terminal Server, then run it straight away and it is able to delete the temporary files for ALL USERS.

Can CCleaner not be made to do the same?

Thanks in advance,
