Winapp2.ini update: https://github.com/MoscaDotTo/Winapp2/commit/119c7721ece6813754e197b830f628c3df049837 Winapp3.ini updates: https://github.com/MoscaDotTo/Winapp2/commit/d268ef1c233866620e45564daf03a5fe27ff8a48 https://github.com/MoscaDotTo/Winapp2/commit/b5660b245dce4d90a8f101a3c7f42489abad1b87

Add option for traditional Advanced Results page
APMichael replied to jaddorf's topic in CCleaner Suggestions
1) The option is still there (please check the screenshot). 3) The CCleaner installer offers Avast, not McAfee. (And the CCleaner installer always offers Chrome if it is not installed.) -

Winapp3.ini: IMHO the entry [Useless File Extension *] should be used with "Analyze" only. It would be hard work to make this entry safe. The entry [Windows 10 Useless Files *] seems to be wrong: The path "%ProgramFiles%\WindowsApps\Microsoft.CloudExperienceHost_*\" doesn't exist; it should be "%WinDir%\SystemApps\Microsoft.Windows.CloudExperienceHost_*\". But the sub-folder "media" doesn't contain *.mp4 files. We can correct the path and rename the entry to "Windows Apps Media Files". (Or because the files don't exist on your system also; maybe we can remove the entry then?)
-
The entry was removed by request: https://forum.piriform.com/topic/32310-winapp2ini-additions/?page=234&tab=comments#comment-277438. I was not happy about that also: https://forum.piriform.com/topic/32310-winapp2ini-additions/?page=234&tab=comments#comment-277444. That's just a mistake; all entries should have Section=Dangerous. I can't find any information why this entry was removed from Winapp2.ini. (It seems that the folder isn't used by Windows anymore. On my systems the folder is empty always.)

I checked the registry and found the following key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AvastAdSDK\". If I delete the value "LastOffer" the Avast offer shows up again.
-
It is! But if you had installed Avast already; the Avast offer won't show up again. Your screenshot doesn't show the first page; it's the "Customize" page! This is the first page:

Thank you very much for your reply.

Winapp3.ini: Thanks for your feedback. It seems that all GhostScript based tools use that "Fontmap.Sol" file. We could make the ExcludeKey more universal: [Flash Local Shared Object Files *] Section=Dangerous Default=False FileKey1=%SystemDrive%|*.SOL|RECURSE ExcludeKey1=FILE|%SystemDrive%\*\|Fontmap.Sol And I think we should remove the entry [Flash SOL Files *], because it deletes nothing but those GhostScript files. Edit: Or should we remove both entries, because Flash is a "dying" software anyway?

sfc /scannow finds errors every time after cleaning
APMichael replied to Jazz Dawg's topic in CCleaner Bug Reporting
Ok, something corrupts your system files. Sadly, I can't tell you what. As far as I know there are no cleaning rules that will touch those windows system files or directories. And I never had that problem on any system using CCleaner. Did you check the health of the Windows image already? Command: DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth -
sfc /scannow finds errors every time after cleaning
APMichael replied to Jazz Dawg's topic in CCleaner Bug Reporting
Are the errors only logged in the "cbs.log" file? Or does "sfc /scannow" also output that it found errors (and fixed them)? -
I think there went something wrong with the upload. Winapp3.ini and Winapp2.ini are identical files now. If you click on "Load diff" you can see that Winapp3.ini was replaced by Winapp2.ini.

sfc /scannow finds errors every time after cleaning
APMichael replied to Jazz Dawg's topic in CCleaner Bug Reporting
There are no cleaning rules which clean those directories. Did you include "Custom Files and Folders"? Or did you use extensions like "winapp2.ini"? -

IE cleaning causes multiple ESENT errors
APMichael replied to TheOwner's topic in CCleaner Bug Reporting
Please check this post: Edit: Sorry, I noticed too late that you are using Windows 7. -
That's done already. https://forum.piriform.com/topic/32310-winapp2ini-additions/?page=282&tab=comments#comment-292586

Did you read your old post?! You clearly talked about "%LocalAppData%\Packages\*\AC\INetCache"! IMHO it's not a good idea to recommend something if you don't know why... But let's forget the topic. BTW, I checked the container.dat files on my system. They all are empty and have 0 KB. And they get recreated after deletion. It seems there's no reason for deleting them.

It seems that just a few apps need the ExcludeKey. But you wanted that we add the ExcludeKey to all Windows Store entries! https://forum.piriform.com/topic/32310-winapp2ini-additions/?page=281&tab=comments#comment-292447 Now you changed your mind again... Those apps need the ExcludeKey: Bing Weather, HuluPlus, Netflix (and maybe other?) https://forum.piriform.com/topic/32310-winapp2ini-additions/?page=205&tab=comments#comment-266270

Please add an optional setting for cleaning the VirtualStore of Windows Vista and newer. If you enable this setting the variables used in FileKeys get additionally expanded to: %ProgramFiles% additionally to... %LocalAppData%\VirtualStore\Program Files %LocalAppData%\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86) %CommonAppData% additionally to... %LocalAppData%\VirtualStore\ProgramData Older applications and games are still used by many users, but the data of those programs get redirected to the VirtualStore. (Another benefit of the setting would be that all VirtualStore FileKeys could be removed from winapp.ini/winapp2.ini.) Edit: RegKeys with "HKLM\SOFTWARE\..." should also check and clean "HKCU\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\...".

Thanks for the tip. I probably never checked the bottom of the applications tab!

The LangSecRefs of winsys.ini unfortunately don't work with winapp2.ini.
