[Windows 7 Beta / CCleaner Doesn't Work]

I haven't been in the boards in a while, so first let me say howdy to all the regulars. This post really caught my eye. "theunseen" I'm not trying to be mean, but ARE YOU KIDDING? First CCleaner doesn't, and really couldn't, support beta software, especially if it only came out one day ago. Also do you really think it's smart to run any utility on the registry of the OS that just came out? If you are going to do that, I would back up the whole registry, not just the removed items like CCleaner does. Windows 7 is bound to go through quite a few changes before it comes out as a fully functional OS, so I would take a lot of care fooling with it.

 

Now all that said, I've not seen too many programs that tried so hard to take care of so many different OS's and programs to clean as CCleaner. I wouldn't be too surprised to see that the folks that do the code for CCleaner actually do have a version that works with Windows 7, but I won't hold my breath.

 

My suggestion would be to just do the cleaning for all the temp files and keep an eye on the change log for CCleaner and see if they start supporting Windows 7 sometime in the near future.

KIDDING about what? Seriously, get a grip and don't pop a vessel in your head.

[Windows 7 Beta / CCleaner Doesn't Work]

Greetings,

 

I know Windows 7 Beta released officially yesterday to 2.5 million, I'm one of them.

 

I installed latest version of CCleaner today after installing W7 (64 bit) Beta today.

 

It seems CCleaner doesn't work at all, the actual functions do nothing basically.

 

Exampmle:

- fix registry, always shows up 148 problems after fixing all if I rescan.

- settings area, choose to show option to run and open CCleaner in recycle bin, it never saves the options

 

Cleaning cache (run CCleaner main feature) seems to work otherwise
