Do the RegKeyN's occur in every Windows version? Do I need a DetectOS here?

[CCleaner.ini and Uninstall]

I think it would be quite beneficial if when a user removes CCleaner from Add/Remove programs, that the uninstall program moves CCleaner.ini to the User's Desktop so that is the user wants to reinstall later - they can just place their selections back quite easily.

@Nergal CSGalloway's question was not directly related to Winapp2.ini, but to a batch script on GitHub.

 

Unfortunately, I have very little time for other things at the moment, but with a little trick I was able to insert the leading zeros quickly. You can download the updated batch script on GitHub.

Excuse me, but I don't quite understand the line number question. Which line number should be output where exactly? And what use is the information about the line number then? Since the batch script skips all blank lines, the line numbers would not match those in Winapp2.ini anyway.

Please keep in mind that this is only a simple batch script. Compared to a "real" programming language it has very limited functionality and performance.

The change I see is

SET "wais_rule=0000%wais_entry%"

and I wanted the entry to be padded out to the length of the wais_entries so if wais_entries was 3105 then entry 1 would be 0001, 10 would be 0010, 100 would be 0100, and 1000 would not be padded out.

The line numbering question has to do with

ECHO !wais_line! >>"%wais_folder%\preamble.txt"

I would just like to output the line number from the INI file before the wais_line.  Something like:

ECHO nLine | !wais_line! >>"%wais_folder%\preamble.txt"

where nLine is the line numbere from the INI file being read.

i'd like some assistance in, for instance if the INI file has 1035 entries, have the first one be numbered 0001 and not 1, and so on and so on......

Also how can I output the line number that the current line from the INI file is going to preface and not the new split INI file?

A huge thank you !

[Winapp2.ini additions]

A long time ago someone had sent me a batch file to split the rules in each INI file - think it was called Splitrules.bat - and I can not find where that is so would greatly appreciate it again please....

New Winapp3.ini entry:

[Firefox Old Data *]
Section=Dangerous Firefox
DetectFile=%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox
Default=False
Warning=The folders are created as part of the "Refresh Firefox" process and can contain important data.
FileKey1=%UserProfile%\Desktop\Old Firefox Data *|*.*|REMOVESELF

If Firefox Old Data is basically the same structure as %appdata%\mozilla\profiles then why not have copies of all the firefox entries and just do

    Detectfile=%UserProfile%\Desktop\Old Firefox Data *

and for instance have the new rule for the old

  [Bookmark Backups *]

be

[OFD Bookmark Backups *]

??

[Winapp2.ini additions]

I would assume that if there were multiple "%userprofile%\Desktop\Old Firefox Data\" that it would be okay to just have

"%userprofile%\Desktop\Old Firefox Data *\"

I did a DIR of such a folder.....  It's attached.

OldFireFoxData.txt

[Winapp2.ini additions]

A lot of FireFox users have %userprofile%\Desktop\Old Firefox Data\ and I think it would be nice if there was an entry that would clean this and similar named folders.

I added a link directly to the Creating Entries section of the ReadMe to the top level post. For sanity/version control reasons, it's much easier to link to GitHub resources from this thread than to maintain separate copies

I see an entry for [Auslogics Registry Defrag*] is in the winapp2.ini but not showing up on my system. I am using windows 7 x64. The places where Auslogics is mentioned in my registry are the following:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Auslogics\Registry Defrag\11.x

The reports are stored in "C:\ProgramData\Auslogics\Registry Defrag\11.x\Reports"

Btw APMichael,

Do you know how to set up Winapp1.ini so that it will not show such entries as [Twitter Metro] and several Bing entries link [Bing Finance]?  I cannot seem to find any instructions on how to do this little known trick.  

I would assume just extract the winapp1.ini from the ccleaner.exe or ccleqaner64.exe using tghe /export command line option then edit the winapp1.ini and just comment out using ";" the lines you don't want processed.

Does this look right to exclude that whole path you refer to?
ExcludeKey1=PATH|%LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.Cortana_*\LocalState\|DeviceSearchCache

Edit:
Couldn't get it to exclude using a path, however I got this to work as intended:
ExcludeKey1=FILE|%LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.Cortana_*\LocalState\DeviceSearchCache\|*.*

Also the way you suggest to restore Cortana functionality does not work if Cortana is purposely disabled by the user, and the user is instead just using it as a normal local search, hence the reason I use a batch script to restore the functionality.

Please share the batch script you mentioned.....
