Not cleaning Google Earth temporary files


Walter V R

Recommended Posts

I use CCleaner v5.37.6309.

I also use Google Earth Pro 7.3.0.3832

In CCleaner, under Applications, Google Earth is checked.

In the past, CCleaner used to clean the Google Earth cache files.
As I use GE a lot, this is always a lot of disk space.

However, since a few CCleaner versions ago, the Google Earth files are not removed any more.

What happened?

based on what Google has done with Chrome, I'm guessing they may have also moved the cache location of GE.

go into your GE folder and find where the cache is located and add that as an INCLUDE to CC.

Backup now & backup often.

glad it worked, and yes, it should be temporary (although who knows how long for) until the cache location for GE gets reflected into the CC system .INI files.
