ErnieLane Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 One of the things CCleaner cleans is the "session" in various browsers. Now, I tend to use Chrome or Firefox. I just ran Ccleaner when I had several tabs open in each. After runing CCleaner, no tabs. Does CCleaner wipe these out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted July 20, 2017 Moderators Share Posted July 20, 2017 Yes, you discovered your answer yourself. Session wipe will make it so previous tabs are wiped ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Moderators nukecad Posted July 20, 2017 Moderators Share Posted July 20, 2017 If you run analyse - for sessions only, look at the detailed results, and maybe right click and go to folder, then you will see that these are mainly log, bak, and other recovery files for that particular browser So yes these are the files that have info on what tabs were open when the browser last closed (for whatever reason). *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?

greatmastermario Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 As one piece of further clarification, I am running CCleaner free, version 5.32.6129 (64-bit). I just did a cleanup, and I had my Microsoft Edge "Session" option checked. I now lost my saved tabs, a new feature in Windows 10 version 1703. Is this saved in the MS Edge session even if you exit the program? I have it turned off in the background apps, and I have restart my computer and the tabs save in the top-left corner to be recovered later.

Moderators nukecad Posted August 1, 2017 Moderators Share Posted August 1, 2017 I don't think anyone but the developers at Microsoft could answer that one. (And they would probably struggle to know what their co-worker at the next workstation has just changed in the Edge basecode). Edge is a work in progress, and they keep changing things. Which is one reason why third party cleaners, AV's etc. have problems keeping up with just what MS have changed in Edge from month to month. (Or week to week if you are on the insider rings). *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'? Worried about why some files come back after cleaning?
