JohnStreet65 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Save all settings to ini file ? What does this mean, is it win ini file or cc's, and for what purpose ? Thanks for your help. It think not having a User Manual wastes time and is boneheaded - the help forums are full of basics and duplication. Searches for 'save all settings to ini file' (topic title) gave no results and a search for 'ini file' (discussion) gave a topic that matched the word 'file' only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted July 29, 2008 Moderators Share Posted July 29, 2008 this is will save all of your settings in a CCleaner.ini instead of your registry. Mostly it's used by people like me who use CC as a portable (no install) application . ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

Moderators hazelnut Posted July 29, 2008 Moderators Share Posted July 29, 2008 In case you haven't seen it John here is the beginners guide. http://www.internetrotsyourbrain.com/ccleanerbeginnersguide/ One of the reasons an ini file is useful taken from the guide.. Save all settings to INI file (This will save all the CCleaner settings to CCleaner.ini instead of the Registry) Note: Saving to ini can be useful if your Windows account is limited and doesn't have access to the registry.

It will be created and updated in your C:\Program Files\CCleaner folder. Edit This link should help you understand how useful it is. http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=103253 Best wishes, davey http://www.ccleanerbeginnersguide.com/ CCleaner Beginner's Guide.com Bookmark and save to Favorites Edited July 30, 2008 by davey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
