  1. From your above description it sounds like a confusing venture into tweaking the system. At least you found the cause.
  2. You could've always searched on YouTube! The techies on YouTube have umpteen WiFi 6 videos.
  3. It would be better if they only removed things from that area with a one cleaning entry instead of two in CCleaner, and if it was named accordingly for what and where it cleans, i.e.; Quick Access. That's why on Win10 for 2 years and 2 months I had no "recent documents" and didn't know why so I always thought it was broken in Win10, I'm so used to not having it that I had turned on to keep the MRU list in my chosen text editor as a work around. That kind of clean it twice with two cleaners needs to be corrected, and in my opinion this topic being in the Bug Reporting area is oh so very appropriate!
  4. There's always Resource Hacker (http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/) to "try to increase the fonts" in programs that will allow it (many don't). In some programs it's easy, it's literally changing for instance the font type size from for example 10 to 12, but it can screw up any dialog boxes a program may have and it's only useful for very old programs that don't get updated frequently or for those which are abandon-ware. It isn't worth even trying with CCleaner being that it's digitally signed and will probably cause antivirus to think it's malware, and since CCleaner gets updated too frequently.
  5. See if this helps: https://community.ccleaner.com/topic/40285-ccleaner-not-deleting-google-chrome-history-fix/
  6. The bug started back in CCleaner v5.64: https://community.ccleaner.com/topic/57030-ccleaner-v5647613-cleaning-duplication-doubling-bug/
  7. You have to uncheck both for it to leave files you've recently opened to show in Windows 10 Quick Access. At least that's what I found out.
  8. Try giving HWiNFO a try and see what it detects, it's more up to date.
  9. I think you might need to, reason being anyone could login and say "delete this account". Such as this topic for example since you aren't logged into the account to request its removal.
  10. I don't think the updating is done just yet! There's also no themes to change the forum coloring which the moderation team has complained about.
  11. Original retail Descent games on CD don't work on Win10, I tried last month and got the failure I was expecting.
  12. The only reason I still have an old Dell that runs Win98 (should've bought the 98SE upgrade disc back then) is to play the Descent games that never worked in later versions of Windows.
  13. Correct. I guess it's a good time for people with bookmarks that are saved to spend a few minutes tidying them up, for instance make sure they use the secure "https://" and that the sites actually still work after changing them, some sites still use the insecure "http://".
  14. It's actually been "https://community.ccleaner.com" for awhile now. You may also notice things like the Documentation site, etc., have all moved awhile ago also to CCleaner.com.
  15. Because your hardware is likely newer than Speccy which needs an update for newer hardware. Then again I haven't used it in so many years I can't remember if it had temps for those or not. There's always HWiNFO and/or HWiNFO Portable which is freeware and regularly updated to be compatible with the newest hardware.
  16. You could try Geek Uninstaller Free and Revo Uninstaller Free, but without the unins000.dat file they may not be of any help.
  17. I remember a friend getting Win95 and inviting me over to play I believe the game was MechWarrior at the time. I don't miss the Win9x era VxD bugs, and remember on Win98 making a VxD bug fix script that would re-copy the good/working and not corrupted VxD files back into the OS - made having to reinstall the Win98 OS fresh every few months (sometimes every 6 months) for that specific error a thing of the past.
  18. That might be what's causing it on your system. On my system it shows the Recent Files List and none of the cleaning tools built into Windows will remove that list I've tried Disk Cleanup and Storage Sense and both leave it intact. Exactly as Hazelnut has stated CCleaner always removes the Recent File List, it doesn't matter if it's enabled or disabled in CCleaner it just removes the list, although I'm on a now old version CCleaner v5.63 so I can't say what the newest CCleaner version does. It's probably why I always thought the Recent Files List was broken in Win10 ever since I started using the OS in 2018, I could never find the list which was likely CCleaner removing it the whole time - although Microsoft did place it in a very piss poor location in my opinion.
  19. They seriously need to update their other tools, they keep saying they'll eventually get around to them since CCleaner gets most of their attention. ---------------------- Depending upon how a drive is formatted such as a USB Flash Drive it's easy to also fool Windows 10 into reporting one as an HDD.
  20. Open several dozen tabs if your device supports it, and then open Task Manager in Windows and see how much of your RAM Chrome is consuming. Chrome also has a bug when combined with Windows 10 that doesn't support YouTube HDR video.
  21. Windows Defender or possibly you allowed it as an allowed exception. If you really want it gone off your system such as you have no plans to ever use CCleaner again open Windows Defender, and go into: 1. Virus & threat protection 2. Manage ransomware protection 3. Allow an app through Controlled folder access 4. Delete the offending file from the list (it should be in there). Done. Note: Don't remove anything that looks like it's built into Windows from the list such as chkdsk.exe, etc.
  22. From a quick search I did: Up to a certain version of Windows 10 it only supported up to 64K cluster size (like several previous versions of Windows did). At some point Microsoft included 128K and above in Windows 10. Since Microsoft changed a standard it will take disk based tools like defrag tools, recovery tools, etc., time to catch up to the change - if they bother at all. As you've found out Defraggler doesn't support larger than the old/legacy standard of 64K, and the same issue will be present in most third party disk tools. Therefore you'll likely be limited to only using the Microsoft defrag tool already built into Windows, or if you can find some commercial defrag tool to purchase that supports it.
  23. If it's a hard disk drive defragment it using the built-in Windows defrag tool.
  24. Saw a YouTube video a few hours ago about Apple kicking them off their platform, seems more interesting with others doing the same. I wonder if any U.S. laws have anything to do with it getting kicked off platforms, since the game is supposedly backed by China. I've never been interested in the game, it looks too cartoonish for my tastes.
