I have two laptops. Both running Windows XP SP2. Both laptops have Opera 8.54 and Opera 9.02 installed. I just installed CCleaner on both laptops and it's working great on both. I have noticed something strange though with how CCleaner handles Opera. On one of the laptops when I select Opera and than run analyze it returns results for both 8.54 and 9.02. On the the other laptop it only returns results for Opera 8.54. I have noticed that in the winapp2.ini sticky there is an entry for "Opera 9 classic". I have not added this entry to either computer and as I said both machines have Opera 8.54 and 9.02 installed. Why is Opera 9 being detected on one laptop but not the other? Thank you
CCleaner and Opera

I tried to add Opera 9 to the winapp2.ini on the machine that is not detecting Opera 9 and CCleaner still does not detect Opera 9 even with it added to win ap2.ini

Nobody know why Opera 9 doesn't show up in CCleaner?

Did you install opera in its default location? That is necessary for it to show up in ccleaner.
If so then try this:
Open notepad and paste in this:
Then save the file as winapp2.ini.
Put the file in C:/program files/ccleaner.
If so then try this:
Open notepad and paste in this:
[Opera 9 (Classic)] LangSecRef=3022 DetectFile=%ProgramFiles%\Opera 9\Opera.exe Default=True FileKey1=%ProgramFiles%\Opera 9\profile|cookies4.dat FileKey2=%ProgramFiles%\Opera 9\profile|global.dat FileKey3=%ProgramFiles%\Opera 9\profile|vlink4.dat FileKey4=%ProgramFiles%\Opera 9\profile\cache4|*.* FileKey5=%ProgramFiles%\Opera 9\profile\cacheOp|*.*
Then save the file as winapp2.ini.
Put the file in C:/program files/ccleaner.

Yes both Opera 8.54 and 9.02 are in the default location. On the machine that Opera 9 does not get detected by CCleaner I added the winapp2.ini entry you listed and still it does not detect Opera 9 but does detect 8.54. On my other machine CCleaner detects both Opera 8.54 and 9.02 and I did not need to add the winapp2.ini entry, CCleaner detects both Operas by default.

Looking at this again it seems Opera 9 is not in the default folder. On the machine that CCleaner detects Opera 9 it is in the Opera 9 folder but on the other machine it is in the Opera9 folder. The space between the 9 and Opera is the problem.
