Hi,

I noticed that when I use "Run CCleaner in Recycle Bin" in v2.25.1025 CCleaner erase not only the recycle bin content but also the browser's caches and temp files like if I would be performing a complete cleaning from the program interface. This didn't work in this way in the past, in previous version when I run CCleaner from the context menu of the recycle bin only the recycle bin was cleaned. Is this a bug or a change of behavior? I hope it's a bug.

I just checked this in v2.24 and this problem is present too , I really don't know when was this change/bug introduced but I can ensure that until v2.20 if I press "run CCleaner" in the context menu of the recycle bin CCleaner will delete only the content of it, nothing more (like should be).

Hi TGB_72.

I've just installed V 2.19.901 to try this out, and the option in the right click recycle bin menu runs CCleaner as a full clean, which appears to be the way it's always worked.

I'm not disputing what you say, and that's the only "older" version I've tried, but I'm assuming it's the normal behaviour.

The two recycle bin menu option either run CCleaner or open CCleaner.

If you want to just clean the recycle bin, you can right click the entry in CCleaner\Windows\System and select analyze or clean.

Hope that helps.

I always assumed it cleaned everything (or as per what you had selected in ccleaner last time you used it)...
interesting.

It has performed this way right back to the early versions. (just tsested 1.41) it performs a full clean.

Where does it say 'run ccleaner in recycle bin'?

[TGB_72]

Thanks to all for reply,

Well, looks like it's like all of you said, that function makes a full clean, I thought that it was only to wipe with several passes the recycle bin.
Anyway what I reported above was true in some way, until a couple of days I was using CCleaner v2.20 with some beta versions of Opera 10 and FF 3.6 so when I ran that function from the recycle bin the browsers caches remained intact (obviously was due to the lack of full support for the new versions of these browsers), now that CCleaner fully support the latest versions of Opera and FF I could see the real behavior of "Run CCleaner" in the recycle bin.

This setting adds it:

sorry dennis i was being facetious, the quote was 'run ccleaner in recycle bin'

I was pointing out not very well it does not actually say this at all.

I was waititng for a response before i carried on my reply, but they solved the issue.

No worries. People sometimes do miss things so I thought you were serious.

I only recently found that there's a forum help section up in the top right corner. Who'd have thought?

Using the right click on the Recycle Bin to 'Run CCleaner' has always did a full clean, of course it also always respects the user enabled CCleaner settings.

thought it was only for ccleaning the recycle bin.
