[New Way to detect install folder.]

Many people install programs in a different folder then the default %programfiles% folder. Many programs store the installation folder inside the registry. To be able to detect those things that are installed in a different folder, it would be nice if the winapp2.ini file could get an extra item like this:

 

[*GuildWars]LangSecRef=3024Detect=HKLM\SOFTWARE\ArenaNet\Guild WarsInstallFolder=HKLM\SOFTWARE\ArenaNet\Guild Wars|PathDefault=TrueFileKey1=%InstallFolder%|*.log

 

The variable %InstallFolder% will now contain only the path to the installation location of the program (in this case the game GuildWars).

This opens up many new ways to check if a program has left some garbage to remove.

I myself always install my large games on a different drive (and not in the default %programfiles% folder), so that when i have to reformat my pc, i can reinstall those games ontop of itself and it keeps all of my personal settings (and as for GuildWars, even ALL the updates wich now is around 1 GB worth of downloads, all packed into a single file)

[Mozilla Firefox Plugins]

Hey All,

 

small question about winapp2.ini.

I have several plugins for Firefox that create logfiles in the profiles directory of firefox (example: C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\profile.default\chatzilla\logs\).

Is there any way with CC-Cleaner to also delete those files as the profiles directory can be any name on any machine. I have my profile always custom created and always has a fixed name, but this is not the default behavour. it always consists of random lettersand numbers followed by .default. Buthow can i delete files (using CCleaner and WinApp2.ini) out of that direcotry.

 

Thanks in advance for any help....

 

p.s. i have already submitted a few new programs to be added to the winapp2.ini file.
