Just a comment/suggestion:
The last big overhaul merged many entries with duplicate FileKeys. Therefore, the entries count and file size was dramatically reduced. IMHO it would be wise to continue that.
The 3 new "ACDSee" entries could be merged with the 2 existing ones into one big entry, like the many other "versions independent" entries:
[ACDSee Photo Studio *] LangSecRef=3023 Detect1=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Pro\90 Detect2=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Professional\110 Detect3=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Standard\210 Detect4=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Ultimate\110 Detect5=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee\60 Default=False FileKey1=%LocalAppData%\ACD Systems\ICMCache|*.*|RECURSE FileKey2=%LocalAppData%\ACD Systems\Logs|*.*|RECURSE FileKey3=%LocalAppData%\ACD Systems\SavedSearches|*.*|RECURSE RegKey1=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Pro\90|HistMCFDestFolder RegKey2=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Pro\90|HistPaths RegKey3=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Pro\90|LastOptionPageName RegKey4=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Pro\90|OpenFolder RegKey5=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Pro\90\PrintOptions\OutputContactSheet|ContactSheetFN RegKey6=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Pro\90\PrintOptions\OutputContactSheet|ImageMapFN RegKey7=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Professional\110|HistMCFDestFolder RegKey8=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Professional\110|HistPaths RegKey9=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Professional\110|LastOptionPageName RegKey10=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Professional\110|OnlineHistPaths RegKey11=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Professional\110|OpenFolder RegKey12=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Standard\210|HistMCFDestFolder RegKey13=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Standard\210|HistPaths RegKey14=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Standard\210|LastOptionPageName RegKey15=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Standard\210|OnlineHistPaths RegKey16=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Standard\210|OpenFolder RegKey17=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Ultimate\110|HistMCFDestFolder RegKey18=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Ultimate\110|HistPaths RegKey19=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Ultimate\110|LastOptionPageName RegKey20=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Ultimate\110|OnlineHistPaths RegKey21=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee Ultimate\110|OpenFolder RegKey22=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee\60|HistMCFDestFolder RegKey23=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee\60|HistPaths RegKey24=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee\60|LastOptionPageName RegKey25=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee\60|OpenFolder RegKey26=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee\60\PrintOptions\OutputContactSheet|ContactSheetFN RegKey27=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\ACDSee\60\PrintOptions\OutputContactSheet|ImageMapFN RegKey28=HKCU\Software\ACD Systems\EditLib\Presets\Photo Repair 2|Last Used -

Removing files from that location removed login information of Windows Insider account on a Windows 10 Insider Preview (build 17083.1000), which I have reported.
Otherwise, it is recommended to empty this cache and I tested this on a Windows 10 (build 16299.192), no issues. I just forgot to mention this in that post.I should not have reported the Windows Insider account issue here since it was with a preview build.
I always use the latest Winapp2.ini file. I have put those entries in order, that is why the order is changed.
I am not asking to change the sort order of all the entries that are already there, but at least from now on we can keep the order. This way, it is easy to locate the location or path when modifying an entry with lots of Filekeys or RegKeys.
Thanks for your clarification. Ok, but changing the sort order of new entries will break WinappDebug/Winapp2ool. I personally prefer alphabetical order, but let’s wait for other comments.

...[Adobe CC *], [Adobe CS *], [Adobe Dreamweaver *], [Adobe My Digital Editions *], [Adobe Photoshop *] and [Adobe Premiere Pro *].
[Adobe Photoshop *] was an amalgamation of several older Photoshop entries: CS1,CS2, CS3, etc. during the last refactor. I use this one with Photoshop CS2 and haven't had any issues...
It seems that the removed entries are just outdated. Maybe we can add them to the "Removed entries.ini" file?

Please don't take it personally, but you change your mind very often. Please test your modifications a little bit longer before posting them. No need to hurry. And please use the latest winapp2.ini as template, because many of your revised entries are not correctly sorted. Thank you very much!
8 hours ago, SMalik said:I wonder why we have ExcludeKey in the entry listed below. This is for File Explorer Jump Lists. Almost every known privacy cleaning program has cleaning rules for this. Removing Explorer Jump Lists does not actually remove any of the programs from Explorer, same like the other jump lists.
[Jump Lists *]
...
ExcludeKey1=FILE|%AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations\|f01b4d95cf55d32a.automaticDestinations-msBecause this protects user made changes to "Quick access". If you remove this file then "Quick access" shows the default entries again.

You're absolutely right. It's a common folder used by various applications. (On my system it's used by a banking software.)

Sorry, but this isn't correct. They are on every Windows 10 system I have seen until now. And siliconman01 wouldn't post a modified entry without checking and testing also.

Is there a folder called CryptnetCache simultaneously alongside the CryptnetUrlCache folders I see on my machine? or some other folder name that matches this pattern? If not, I agree. The only sense in parameterizing filekeys with wildcards is to multiple clean locations with identical parameters, but it doesn't make sense to include paths that don't necessarily exist in such a parameterization...
SMalik added new FileKeys which include folders named "CryptnetFlushCache". That's why I changed the existing FileKeys "CryptnetUrlCache" to "Cryptnet*Cache". This covers both "...Flush..." and "...Url...".
17 hours ago, SMalik said:I will not recommend shortening paths like "Cryptnet*Cache". Something like "\nouser1\*\" is fine, where the name is different each time the program is installed. I suggest that we should implement this rule for all entries.
Then we have to undo many changes of the last overhaul... IMHO it isn't a problem if the shortened path includes keywords like "cache" or "temp".

Thanks for the updates!
Just a suggestion:
We merged many entries to reduce the entries count and the file size of winapp2.ini. But what about the Adobe Acrobat and Reader entries?
[Adobe Acrobat *] = [Adobe Acrobat 2017 *] + [Adobe Acrobat DC *] + [Adobe Acrobat XI *]
[Adobe Reader *] = [Adobe Reader 2017 *] + [Adobe Reader DC *] + [Adobe Reader XI *]Or do you prefer them separated?

All "ACDSee" entries had the same FileKeys. Therefore, we merged them into one big "versions independent" entry. (Please check the first two posts.)
[ACDSee Pro *], [ACDSee Standard *], [ACDSee Photo Studio Professional 2018 *], [ACDSee Photo Studio Standard 2018 *], [ACDSee Photo Studio Ultimate 2018 *] = [ACDSee Photo Studio *]
It's used for decryption of DVDs. The folder "%AppData%\dvdcss" gets created by several Media Player or DVD Copy software.
