don_dolarson 0 Report post Posted November 13 May we user suggest an application to add for cleaning so it's gonna be there whenever winapp2.ini file is updated? Just installed an application, updated winapp2 file but the application isn't there. It leaves about 200MB of updates after it's done. I don't see "include folder" option in CCleaner.

You can suggest, but it's better to provide us with an entry yourself as only suggesting relies heavily on someone else with that program (which depending on the application may not be many or any) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It leaves update package files inside folder C:\Users\%USERDATA%\AppData\Local\MessengerForDesktop-updater Thanks, but we also need a program path or registry key to detect the program (and create a new entry for it). You can find instructions for new entries here: https://github.com/MoscaDotTo/Winapp2#creating-entries. I have found all the information and already created the new entry for you: [Messenger for Desktop *] LangSecRef=3022 DetectFile=%LocalAppData%\Programs\messengerfordesktop Default=False FileKey1=%LocalAppData%\messengerfordesktop-updater|*.*|RECURSE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

siliconman01 0 Report post Posted November 21 If any Winapp2.ini user also uses program "Internet Download Manager" but does NOT use Chrome or Chrome based browser, the user is subject to a potential issue/conflict when you update Internet Download Manager (IDM) to version 6.35 Build 12. This new update inserts a registry key HKCU\Software\Cococ to permit an IDM browser extension to be added into the Cococ browser (IDM adds this registry key irrespective of whether the Cococ browser is installed or not). Many Winapp2.ini cleaning modules for Chrome and Chrome based browsers perform a Detect=HKCU\Software\Cococ to determine if this chrome based browser (Cococ) is installed on the user system. Therefore once the user updates to IDM v6.35 Build 12, he/she may start seeing numerous inapplicable Chrome cleaning modules in the Applications tab when the user installs a new Winapp2.ini and performs the TRIM. There is no "clean" solution to this problem that I can think of....perhaps Robert or APMichael can ?? What I have done on my systems is add a Custom module to my Winapp2.ini as shown below to delete this registry key HKCU\Software\Cococ [Internet Download Manager Registry *] LangSecRef=3024 Detect=HKLM\Software\Internet Download Manager Default=False RegKey1=HKCU\Software\CocCoc Obviously I do not know what the IDM developer's plans are to add more browsers to IDM's supported browsers, but additional browser keys may show up in future IDM updates that will result in the same problem.

Maybe you can report this to the developers as a bug. It is easy for them to query if the registry key for CocCoc already exists and if the additional keys/values they want to add are necessary or not. It looks like a bug, because this only happens with the registry key for CocCoc. In the registry key for Chrome they do not add any additional keys/values (if Chrome is not installed). The only solution would be to modify the Detects for all Chrome/Chromium entries. But this would be a lot of effort because of an obviously buggy program.
