MrKite Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 If this has already been discussed, I apologize. Recently, when I run ccleaner it shows deleting Internet Explorer Temporary Internet Files, 5,121 KB. It keeps reappearing after deletion like something is looping. I have unchecked everything I could find in IE, even tried turning it off, but to no avail. Has anyone else seen this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSGalloway Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 What windows version are you running? What happens if you run CCleaner while in safe mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKite Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 Thanks for the response. Windows 10, 64-bit Pro, Anniv. edition. I tried it in Safe Mode, same result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also remember in Windows 10 - there is Edge and IE. The other thing I can think of is maybe there is a antivirus program running that is trying to connect to the internet?

MrKite Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 I checked the location of the files that are/are not being deleted - C:\Users\XXXXX\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Low\SuggestedSites.dat When I follow this path I get to Windows but no INetCache folder. This tells me the folder is indeed being deleted, but why does it keep reappearing in ccleaner? A ccleaner bug perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSGalloway Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 What is the entry that lists SuggestedSites.dat? I have windows 7 still and don't have anyhting you mentioned pasted \Windows\ ...... that path does not appear in the *.ini files inside CCleaner.exe or in the current winapp2.ini - so not sure how it's getting found in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKite Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 I double-clicked on the IE Temporary Internet Files, 5.121 KB, that keeps appearing, and that is where I got the path information. You hit the nail on the head, "so not sure how it's getting found in the first place" - me neither. Not a big deal, apparently no such file exists, but it is intriguing.

CSGalloway Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Here is the entry that I exported from CCleaner.exe [Temporary Internet Files]ID=1001LangSecRef=3001LangRef=3101Detect=HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet ExplorerDefault=TrueSpecialKey1=N_INT_TEMP I have no idea what N_INT_TEMP does and I searched all the forums on Piriforms site and no relevant matches were found. No ideas - maybe contact the programmer - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKite Posted August 20, 2016 Author Share Posted August 20, 2016 I stumbled upon the fix. I opened up IE, Tools>Internet Options>Advanced tab. Under browsing, I checked 'Enable Suggested Sites'. The entry is now gone from ccleaner. Thanks for your interest and help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS OConnor Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I know this questions has been asked and probably answered but - I use CCleaner Professional after I close the default browser, FireFox, but it will not clear two Internet Explorer files C:\Users\Benetta\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Low\SuggestedSites.dat – 5121 KB C:\Users\Benetta\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCookies\deprecated.cookie – 1 KB And one Windows file - C:\Users\Benetta\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WebCache\V0100474.log – 512 KB No matter how many times I run the cleaner, these 3 files continue to show up every time, so I know these files have not been cleared from my computer. I have a Windows 10 – 64bit system and do not use Internet Explorer as my browser. (I can’t delete, or make inactive, IE 11 because QuickBooks needs some IE file to operate.) Is there any way to clear these 3 files from my system? Just so you know, I am not computer savvy – There was a reply as follows (but I don’t understand what or how).

Moderators nukecad Posted September 13, 2019 Moderators Share Posted September 13, 2019 I can't say for definite without checking the others. But 'depricated cookie' will always be recreated if/when you delete it. If you open it in notepad you will see that it's just a notice that cookies are no longer saved there. *** Out of Beer Error ->->-> Recovering Memory *** Worried about 'Tracking Files'?

Moderators Nergal Posted September 13, 2019 Moderators Share Posted September 13, 2019 This is an empty index, it's recreated by the os after ccleaner deletes it. All of your examples are files recreated empty after deletion. 3 hours ago, BS OConnor said: C:\Users\Benetta\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Low\SuggestedSites.dat – 5121 KB 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.
