  1. NOt much to be gained by deleting prefetch files. Periodically, it needs updating but Windows updates periodically as part of its normal operation. If you need the few nanoseconds it might save you not waiting for windows, then just delete all the prefetch files and windows will start building over again.

     

     

    lol :P

     

    Yeah! I know. I forgot that one.

     

    Btw, I just noticed I wrote D:\ :rolleyes:

  2. If the option screenis not coming up on your machine(s) when you install, even when you install over a prior version, then it is not installing correctly. Not having the option screen show up is not be design but by mistake. Seems lots of programs recently have had the yahoo stuff as default add-on with option to not add. Nero for one. So long as I can refuse the yahoo, I don't mind. Yoy should probably contact the techs re why the program is not installing correctly on your machines (ie., mistakenly skipping the option screen before isntalling an update). It could be a matter of not using default directories for CCleaner--that sort of things cnfuses some programs when installing updates.

  3. The older 1.41.544 works better than 2.0.500 on most machines. The 2.0 bugs (for example, not cleaning tem interenet files) have apparently been worked out in version 2.01, which should be availalbe today or Monday. Check the download/versions page for what's been fixed in 2.01.

     

    In Vista, CCleaner 2 is definitely better than the previous version...the Registry Issues cleaner no longer breaks certain programs and

    it now cleans the "recent files" in Vista...for two examples.

  4. Yes, go back to 1.41.544. Version 1.42 apparently doesn't catch everything either.

     

     

    This plus the not deleting Temp Internet files bug suggests reverting to 1.4 until 2.x gets fixed. It apparently has has some of these probs al the way through beta and 2.x releases so far.

    Definitiely a bug. I tired it on several machines, and it simply doesn't delete those temp internet files :-(
  6. Search the forum; it's been reported more than once. You apparently have to use an older version of CCleaner for that fucntion to operate correctly.

     

    CCleaner don't erase the content files of:

     

    C:\Documents and Settings\Administrador\Configuraci?n local\Archivos temporales de Internet ????

     

    in english: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content

     

    If I go to CMD and put:

     

    del "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Configuraci?n local\Archivos temporales de Internet\"*.* /S /Q /F

     

    don't erase nothing.

     

    why???

  7. That's the index file. But in any event, CCleaner used to delete the temp internet files and with the latest updates, it doesn't. If you run Analyze under CCleaner, it won't even list all the temp internet files.

     

    Hi jjsan1 B)

     

    Some things wont be cleaned (removed) while Windows is running, they will if you restart your computer.

    The Information below is from the "Beginners Guide" for CCleaner, it's well worth reading the whole guide ;)

     

    Delete Index.dat files

    Although essentially undocumented by Microsoft there are several hidden files, all with the filename index.dat that reside in directories on your system. These permanently cache website addresses and cookies from sites you have visited. This list is never deleted and gradually increases in size, resulting in IE slowing down. Selecting this option will mark these files for deletion the next time your computer is rebooted. (Unfortunately these files cannot be deleted immediately as they are permanently in use by the operating system.)

    I reinstalled version 1.41.544 and it works perfect..I am just wondering if my problem with version 2 is a bug ,and will it be fixed?im fine using the old version if the new version will be fixed,i just need to know if this is a confirmed bug or just a problem for me..But i have seen other post about this so i cant be the only one.. and no reply..thanks in advance
  9. Is there a way to have CCleaner do a cleaning without having to open the program and then click on the "Run Cleaner" button? I mean, like jsut click the desktop icon and it opens itself, runs the cleaner, and closes?
