Hey, Thanks for helping.. It didn't work! I tried this one: [MS Office 14*] LangSecRef=3021 Detect=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\Outlook\0a0d020000000000c000000000000046\101f0446 Default=False RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\Outlook\0a0d020000000000c000000000000046\101f0446 | Basically, what I need done is everything in the 101f0446 key (all the values) need to be deleted. I double checked the value of the registry, and correct it slightly... but it is still not deleting. What am I doing wrong?

OK, Here is what needs to be done: The registry key data for here need to be deleted: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\profile_name\0a0d020000000000c000000000000046\101f0446 Can someone take 30 seconds to write the code I need to insert int he winapp2.ini file to do this? Thanks

Hi, I am trying to clean the "Most recently used" MRU list of 5 contacts that Microsoft Outlook 2010 stores. The list is a "drop down" list that is shown when you click on the Ribbon Interface at the Outlook Contact in the Find box at the extreme Right. I have read here that it is stored here: "i finally found it - i think its only written when outlook closes - until then, changes are stored in memory." HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\profile_name\0a0d020000000000c000000000000046 Name: 101f0446 http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/outlook/thread/0fe76d73-eb9b-4990-ad92-aa5ea8d27a88 Can someone who is adept at writing winapp2.ini code either add this into the big winapp2.ini above, or kindly write a drop in piece of code for me to add to the file? Thanks!

Hi, Can anyone tell me if they have a "ready to use" winapp2.ini for clearing the data that Microsoft Office 2010, particularly Office Outlook 2010 logs --- I am specifically referring to the "last entry looked up" in the "Find" box for Contacts. Thanks

Anyone have a winapp2.ini file written to clean the tracks for Skype? I am looking for one that can delete the IMs, user names, etc... Thanks

Hi, There is a rather disturbing article in the NY Times blog today about Adobe Flash and how it sets its own cookies that are not cleared normally when you clear the browser. See: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/12/30/a...rivacy-test/?hp and Adobe's Official Manual for removing these cookies: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewConten...8&sliceId=1 Can someone tell me whether CC Cleaner clean this by default, or should I write a custom profile? Thanks

The situation is far more complex. There is no advantage to routine defrag as in something that runs in background like Vista's automatic defrag. However, SSDs do need "conditioning" as it fills up and there are fewer and fewer cells to use for wear leveling / scattering. I have used defrag (including defagger) to do a form of wear leveling that exposes new cells to use. Use of this occasionally (once a month, every few weeks) have resulted in performance improvements, but not due to defrag per se, but due to more efficient use of the wear leveling system. There is not a real good commercial tool available right now that does what we might call good SSD conditioning. I am bugging these guys to come up with one. For more info on this, visit with me on d111 at OCZ SSD Forum.... a place where you will find a wealth of info on tweaking SSDs to perfection.

Hi, Solid State Drives (SSDs) are beginning to be pretty common. Typically, they do not need Defrag per se, but they do benefit from optimization. At this time, there is no programs available (at all) for SSD optimization and I am wondering if you would be interested in writing a module to your Defraggler that, a) recognize a SSD optimize it I can provide you with some help on the technical and engineering issues involved (wear leveling, why SSDs progressively slow down as it fills, etc.). Please contact us at OCZ Forum here if you are interested: http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/fo...splay.php?f=186 I am d111 on there.

Forgot: Please also set CCleaner to find and delete the file: places.sqlite That is where FF 3 puts the image of the aggregated bookmarks data in.

OK, I got the problem with clearing FF 3 figured out. Here is the crux of the problem: The "Awesome", I mean Aweshit Smart Search Bar polls two sets of data for its suggestions: A) It takes data from your Browsing History, which is kept during a browsing session until you close the Browser (if you choose it to automatically delete it then, it does), or if you order a "Clear cache" in mid-session. Data is also obtained not only from your Bookmarks, but from every single file of Backup Bookmarks. That is why there appear to be no way to eliminate the history even though you have deleted it from your current bookmarks. Here is the fix: A) Set CCleaner to, by default, delete your backup bookmarks (and lose the protection of having a backup automatically created). Get rid of that stupid Aweshit Bar. Do it by telling it to ignore sites you have visited: Here is how to disable Aweshit bar: Information on how to exclude websites that you HAVE visited from the ?smart? location bar: EXCLUDE BOOKMARKS YOU HAVE VISITED places.frecency.bookmarkVisitBonus This preference set to 0 (zero) will remove the bookmarks you have visited from your results. EXCLUDE URLS YOU HAVE NOT VISITED places.frecency.unvisitedTypedBonus This setting will have the greatest impact on how your results are found A setting of 0 (zero) should give you a result of finding your URLs based on what you type being anywhere in the URL or page title. A setting of 1 should result in placing of what you type anywhere in the title or URL being first, followed by the URL or title beginning with what you type. A setting of 2 should result in only showing results based on what you type being at the beginning of the URL or page title. INCLUDE ONLY URLS YOU HAVE TYPED browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped Set to: true Here is how to DISABLE AWESOME BAR: DISABLE ?AWESOME? (LOCATION) TOOLBAR Type: about:config in the Location Bar In the filter field, type the below names: browser.urlbar.matchOnlyTyped Double click & value will be set to: true browser.urlbar.maxRichResults Double click and type: -1 (Default is 12) If this list is too LARGE or too small, right-click in the about:config list and choose: New | Integer Type: browser.urlbar.maxRichResults | press Enter. When prompted, enter a value lower than the default of 12 if you want to see fewer lines in the drop-down list. Enter a higher number if you want to see more lines here. The list adds a scroll bar once it exceeds a certain size, so you can scroll through whichever number of items you requested in this setting. It is not known if doing this will mean that no data will be collected in background even though it has been excluded. http://www.windowsbbs.com/firefox-thunderb...-0-tips-tricks- ================== See also this for additional information: Here is how to fix the FF Data retention problem: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.ph...=a&start=15 Message: Post 2262 on page 2 of link: Posted July 21st, 2008, 3:07 am markofkane wrote:2. When I type ?youtube.com? I don?t want it to have at the top of the list ?youtube video showing marine throwing puppy over cliff? I had to delete some of the results in the Places file, AND delete the files in ?bookmarkbackups? folder to stop it from showing up again. ?The awesomebar gets its results from two places: - History (empty star in dropdown) which you can remove by highlighting the entry and pressing the delete button (or searching in the Library or history sidebar and deleting it). - Bookmarks (gold star in dropdown) which you can search for in the Library or bookmarks sidebar and delete. You never need to edit the Places file. My guess is that you accidentally clicked the star button in the location bar while you were viewing the Youtube page, doing that created a bookmark in Unsorted Bookmarks (you can see all of these in the Library). That would explain why it didn?t disappear when you cleared history or used CCleaner (as it was a bookmark not a history entry).? =============================== It appears that data is obtained from both History (which can be cleared) and the history files of old Bookmarks (which can be deleted, but they don?t tell people about this). That is why old sites that you have deleted from bookmarks long ago still show up. STUPID ENGINEERING TO NOT WARN USERS WHAT THEY ARE DOING. THE FIX: DELETE ALL OLD BOOKMARK BACKUPS ON MACHINE AND REGULARLY DO SO WITH, eg, AN AUTOMATED CCleaner RUN.

OK, here is another one I want to do: Clearing the tray icon stream. I know how to do it manually, so here is my rough code, am I doing it right? [*MS Windows XP Tray Icon List] LangSecRef=3021 Detect=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TrayNotify Default=True RegKey1=HKCU\Software Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TrayNotify Will this clear both the IconStreams and PastIconsStream values ? ------------------------------------ How To clear the Past Items or Icons list in the TaskBar, perform the following steps: 1.Open Regedit Navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TrayNotify 2.Delete the IconStreams and PastIconsStream values 3.Open Task Manager, click the Processes tab, click Explorer.exe , and then click End Process . 4.In Task Manager, click File , click New Task , type explorer , and then click OK . BallonTip IconStreams PastIconsStream BTW, both the Outlook MRU Clear and This need to be in the 'off the shelf' release of CC CLeaner.

It worked --- my Outlook 2003 is now blissfully free of the memory of which contact I looked up last. FYI, here is the code out of my winapp2.ini file: [*MS Office 2003 MRU Common List]LangSecRef=3021Detect=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickFindMRU\QuickfindMRUDefault=TrueRegKey10=HKCU\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickfindMRU|KeyDetect=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickFindMRUDefault=TrueRegKey10=HKCU\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickfindMRU[*MS Outlook 2003]LangSecRef=3021Detect=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\OutlookDefault=TrueRegKey1=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickFindMRU Thanks to Andavari and everyone else who got this fix in.

Thanks everyone.

OK, here is the problem, I patched the code to winapp2.ini and it still doesn't do the trick. I am running Office 2003. I am able to clean it by deleting the entire Office 10 key as above, OR: I can clean the MRU drop down list by using JV16 Power Tools 2007 in the following manner: 1. use Registry Finder to find QuickfindMRU 2 entries turn up: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickFindMRU\ {key} HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickFindMRU\ {entry is QuickfindMRU} Deleting the first key only does the trick. Deleting the latter entry {QuickfindMRU} does not do the trick So what code do I really need to get that key deleted? Thanks

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickFindMRU\ The entire key, including the 'default' and the 'values' have to be deleted in order for it to clear. Thanks ------------------- Outlook stores the MRU lists for the Standard toolbar's Find a Contact box and the Tools menu's Find command in binary format. You can't edit these lists, but you can clear them. To clear the Find a Contact list, delete the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Outlook\Contact\QuickFindMRU\QuickFindMRU
