For easy access here is the entry for Foxit Version 5

[*Foxit Reader 5.0]  
LangSecRef=3021  
Detect=HKCU\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader 5.0 
Default=True  
RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader 5.0\Recent File List 
RegKey2=HKCU\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader 5.0\RecentFiles 
RegKey3=HKCU\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader 5.0\Preferences\History\LastOpen 
RegKey4=HKCU\Software\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader 5.0\Preferences\Others|csInitialOpenDir

As I stated in the thread about this, it seems the last key does remove the last directory opened from the registry but Foxit still managed to remember the location (still at least the plain text loction is removed)

(Tested XP sp3 but as it is reg entries should work across all OS versions)

Ah, small errors, I'll fix those up

SMalik · July 30, 2011

I need help to create an entry for Winapp2.ini. I am listing a reg path here where "CaptureCount" is a DWORD value. I like to reset the value data to 00000000. Is there a way to do that? I don't want to delete the value.

I disagree with adding the above code to the current jv16 PowerTools 2011 registry compactor backup files removal code.

FileKey1=%ProgramFiles%\jv16 PowerTools 2011\Backups|*.*|RECURSE

removes the individual registry cleaning backup entries that jv16 stores when performing a registry cleaning. This is like removing quarantined items automatically along with logs on security programs which can be dangerous in the event of a false positive. I recommend a separate code block that users can leave unchecked.

Folks should leave MSE well enough alone and let it do what it does. Otherwise you're defeating the purpose as well as fudging up processes required for practical future development of the software at the very least.

You could be right, but which post does this refer to ?

N.B. I cannot see "MSE" on page 31, and life is too short to search the 30 previous pages !

Thank you.

You can do that with VBScript and run it from Ccleaner like this:

' add a scriptkeyX entry to the SnagIt cleaner code
'[snagIt 10...]
'Detect=HKCU\Software\TechSmith\SnagIt\10
'ScriptKey1=SNAGIT.VBS
'
' save the folowing code as SNAGIT.VBS
' ccleaner has already checked that SnagIt 10 is installed
SET sh=CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
sh.RegWrite "HKCU\Software\TechSmith\SnagIt\10\CaptureCount", 0, "REG_DWORD"
SET sh=Nothing

Alan_B · August 1, 2011

Thank you. I think there should be an easy option to reset value data.

For example: |RESET

VB Script is not an easy option.

Even better how about |ASSERT"nnnn" where nnnn is any chosen value that could be zero

Perhaps it should also stipulate what sort of value, e.g.

DWORD;

QWORD;

Binary value;

String Value;

etc.

I suggest it should be kept as a difficult option.

It does not seem right that WinApp2.ini should be used as a click-n-go fixit for the registry by those who cannot safely use RegEdit.

The hard part you have already done, you have identified what registry value you wish to change in which registry key.

I have not learnt how to program in VB script,

but have no difficulty in creating and executing a BAT script that incorporates a VB script and launches cscript.

I suggest that an EASY OPTION would be MERGE{THIS.reg}

Where THIS.reg is the path and name of an exported registry key,

which has then been manually edited so that desired defaults will be imposed when it is merged.

+1

if the program doesn't recreate the entry at 0 then the isn't much ccleaner can (should) do. Ccleaner does not write/create/modify registry entries. Ccleaner is not the correct route to achieve this.

Winapp2.ini · August 1, 2011

One treads upon dangerous ground, modifying the registry beyond RegKeys

Miroku4444 · August 1, 2011

BTW jv16 PowerTools does not create a backup file for License.xbin into Backup folder.

It does on my system. A copy of the License.xbin is in the backup folder.

Winapp2.ini · August 2, 2011

So the Backup folder is not safe to complete empty?

Miroku4444 · August 2, 2011

So the Backup folder is not safe to complete empty?

Why would you want to delete files in your back-up folders, that contain back-ups of your registry cleaning?

Winapp2.ini · August 2, 2011

Well I wouldn't add it to the cleaning of JV16 by default, it'd definitely be a second option.

RegKey5=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\LowRegistry\Audio\PolicyConfig\PropertyStore

RegKey6=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Stats

The paths listed above have diff. subkeys each time. I didn't want to delete the CpMRU, PageSetup, PropertyStore and Stats keys but, there is no option to delete subkeys.

Another example: RegKey7=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Cached

I didn't want to delete the Cached key itself I wanted to delete all the values on pane but, there was no option to do that.

I think there should be a cure for these when creating an entry for Winapp2.ini.

I use Ace Utilities (http://www.acelogix.com/), East-Tec Eraser (http://www.east-tec.com/) and R-Wipe & Clean (http://www.r-wipe.com/). I have provided them these suggestions and they have included in their programs. All the options work the way they should. I feel CCleaner is a good program of its kind and this should be more professional.

I feel CCleaner is a good program of its kind and this should be more professional.

I for one would prefer that CCleaner maintain its reputation as being safer than the common herd of registry cleaners and boosters.

It would be harmful if Piriform developers incorporated a rudimentary REG.EXE so that Winapp2.ini users have enhanced unsupervised super-killer capabilities.

I normally run CCleaner from a BAT script launched from a desktop short-cut.

The script first wipes out all the foreign language subdirectories that come with every Xmarks update in Firefox profile.

This script could also easily cause the merge of a previously exported and edited REG file with chosen non-zero default values.

All under user control and user responsibility.

Winapp2.ini · August 2, 2011

I think modifying registry values is overstepping the ideas of CCleaner a bit
