Moirty Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I notice that CC finds a very large amount of file space that can be freed from Office 2016. I did not see a place that describes what is actually being cleaned. Is this documented somewhere? It was such a large quantity that I'm worried that I might be purging useful files. I'm a relatively new user so apologies if I missed this information somewhere. Thank you, -Moirty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted November 12, 2015 Moderators Share Posted November 12, 2015 right click on the Office 2016 entry and click Analyse, that'll show you what CC wants to clean. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

Moderators Nergal Posted November 13, 2015 Moderators Share Posted November 13, 2015 right click on the Office 2016 entry and click Analyse, that'll show you what CC wants to clean.actually, that'll only give a small picture of it as that will only show the files cleaned and not the registry entries (such as recently opened documents). As far as 2016, the following is the rule that ccleaner's latest (as of the date on this post: future readers) version cleans FileKey1=%AppData%\Microsoft\Office\Recent|*.* FileKey2=%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\MSOIdentityCRL\production\temp|._sync FileKey3=%AppData%\Microsoft\PowerPoint\Sync\Temp|*.* FileKey4=%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Office\16.0\WebServiceCache|*.*|RECURSE FileKey5=%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Office\16.0\OfficeFileCache|*.* RegKey1=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Access\File MRU RegKey2=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Word\File MRU RegKey3=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Word\Place MRU RegKey4=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\File MRU RegKey5=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\Place MRU RegKey6=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Publisher\File MRU RegKey7=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\PowerPoint\File MRU RegKey8=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\PowerPoint\Place MRU RegKey9=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\OneNote\RecentNotebooks RegKey10=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Word\User MRU RegKey11=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Excel\User MRU RegKey12=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Access\User MRU RegKey13=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Publisher\User MRU RegKey14=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\PowerPoint\User MRU Source thanks to @Winapp2.ini http://www.winapp2.com/winapp.iniAll of the MRU regkeys are your most recently accessed files 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 mta Posted November 13, 2015 Moderators Share Posted November 13, 2015 I didn't worry about the reg stuff as it takes up no space (well, so little you can say no space) Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data.
