vane Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Is it possible to change browser path? I would like to view other browser's (Chrome-alike) Plugins. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted January 18, 2018 Moderators Share Posted January 18, 2018 Not sure if it works for addons, but custom location will add browsers not in default location http://www.piriform.com/docs/ccleaner/advanced-usage/ccleaner-ini-files/how-to-clean-user-data-from-non-standard-mozilla-browsers For chrome based browsers replace FIREFOX with CHROME. For opera replace with OPERA 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.

It however does not work with Chrome/Chromium-based SRWare Iron Portable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Andavari Posted January 19, 2018 Moderators Share Posted January 19, 2018 If you're attempting to add a browser using ccleaner.ini is probably the easiest way to do it in my opinion, you can do this by opening CCleaner and then go into 'Options > Advanced' and Save all settings to INI file, then look in the CCleaner program folder for ccleaner.ini. Examples of how to properly map to a custom browser location (including portable versions of browsers): CustomLocation1=FIREFOX|C:\PortableApps\FirefoxPortableESR\Data\profile CustomLocation2=CHROME|D:\PortableApps\IronPortable\Profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The browser I am using is 7 Star. Therefore I added the line below in the last row of INI file, but I still can't see the addons. CustomLocation1=CHROME|C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\7Star\7Star\User Data Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted January 22, 2018 Moderators Share Posted January 22, 2018 If 7Star is a Chrome/Chromium based browser is there not a Profile folder located in there for it? Usually the Profile folder is the path you want to point that CustomLocation to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vane Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 7Star is a Chrome/Chromium based browser, but there is no Profile folder.

Moderators Andavari Posted January 23, 2018 Moderators Share Posted January 23, 2018 Based upon that then and since I notice you've listed that it has a Default path pointing it to User Data should be enough, but with it not working using CustomLocation perhaps Piriform will have to officially add it into CCleaner for it to be properly supported.

Moderators Andavari Posted January 23, 2018 Moderators Share Posted January 23, 2018 Perhaps post in the CCleaner Suggestions area and ask them to support 7Star browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vane Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 Thank you for your reply. I will post it although 7Star is not popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
