  1. Thanks for all the input gentlemen. It is always nice if you can find a free program that works. In this case, for me, it doesn't and I have spent long enough trying. I have been testing 'Shadow Professional', the upmarket version of Index.dat Analyzer and it works splendidly and painlessly so I shall buy it. It's a good cleaner too but the best thing about it is that index.dat files don't even get written to. I went through similar pain with anti-virus programs until I discovered Eset some time ago. Also splendid, painless and not a system hogger. Also, years of pain with so called called Registry cleaners was solved with 'Wise Registry Cleaner Pro' - a first class product. Again, thanks for all your help. Vista x64 can be a very good OS but it does require well researched and well written software to perform at it's best.
  2. Maybe the developer could comment?
  3. Augeus and Marmite 1. I did not have CC set to run on startup 2. I rebooted and ran CC. Index.dat analysis stated '0 files to be removed. 3. the registry address "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\PendingFileRenameOperations" does not contain a field "PendingFileRenameOperations". I ran a search of the registry for "PendingFileRenameOperations" and the only reference I found was :- [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\KeysNotToRestore] "Pending Rename Operations"=hex(7):43,00,75,00,72,00,72,00,65,00,6e,00,74,00,\ 43,00,6f,00,6e,00,74,00,72,00,6f,00,6c,00,53,00,65,00,74,00,5c,00,43,00,6f,\ 00,6e,00,74,00,72,00,6f,00,6c,00,5c,00,53,00,65,00,73,00,73,00,69,00,6f,00,\ 6e,00,20,00,4d,00,61,00,6e,00,61,00,67,00,65,00,72,00,5c,00,50,00,65,00,6e,\ 00,64,00,69,00,6e,00,67,00,46,00,69,00,6c,00,65,00,52,00,65,00,6e,00,61,00,\ 6d,00,65,00,4f,00,70,00,65,00,72,00,61,00,74,00,69,00,6f,00,6e,00,73,00,00,\ 00,00,00 "Pending Rename Operations2"=hex(7):43,00,75,00,72,00,72,00,65,00,6e,00,74,00,\ 43,00,6f,00,6e,00,74,00,72,00,6f,00,6c,00,53,00,65,00,74,00,5c,00,43,00,6f,\ 00,6e,00,74,00,72,00,6f,00,6c,00,5c,00,53,00,65,00,73,00,73,00,69,00,6f,00,\ 6e,00,20,00,4d,00,61,00,6e,00,61,00,67,00,65,00,72,00,5c,00,50,00,65,00,6e,\ 00,64,00,69,00,6e,00,67,00,46,00,69,00,6c,00,65,00,52,00,65,00,6e,00,61,00,\ 6d,00,65,00,4f,00,70,00,65,00,72,00,61,00,74,00,69,00,6f,00,6e,00,73,00,32,\ 00,00,00,00,00 May I ask whether you two are running Vista? If so, is it x64? I also ran "Index.dat analyzer" which DOES clean the dat files. "Why Reboot" showed nothing and no new PendingFileRenameOperations entry appeared in the registry. Thanks
  4. I added the index.dat because the regular one didn't work. Seems neither of them work.
  5. Aha, result is 'No files listed'. What next? That is always assuming that 'Whyreboot' works with Vista x64. Edit :- 'Why Reboot' doesn't work with Vista x64 - I ran a check. Thanks
  6. As I said, the content and size remain the same after running CC. The content is shown using the aforesaid program 'Index.dat Analyser' which also makes a good job of clearing the contents if required.
  7. Size and content remain the same. Index.dat analyser works fine.
  8. I have the latest CCleaner running on Vista Ultimate x64. I always run CC as administrator. There is only one user 'david'. By default CC does not clean the temporary internet files and index.dat situated at :- "C:\Users\David\AppData\Local\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 " I added the path and the following appeared in the .ini file :- (App)Delete Index.dat files=True Include1=PATH|C:\Users\David\AppData\Local\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\|*.* |RECURSE (App)Autocomplete Form History=True (App)Windows Error Reporting=True (App)DNS Cache=True (App)Start Menu Shortcuts=True (App)Desktop Shortcuts=True (App)Custom Folders=True Include2=FILE|C:\Users\David\AppData\Local\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\|index.dat (App)Options=True DelayTemp=1 The temporary files are now cleaned but Index.dat is not, even after reboot. In fact none of the index.dat files are cleaned at reboot. Is it possible to clean Index.dat files with CC? If so, how? Thanks
