dlhaas2 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) I always just used the free version of the CCleaner. However it started not cleaning everything so I just purchase the professional version. I did my first clean with the professional and it is still not cleaning everything. I am attaching an so you may see what I am talking about. These four items will not clean and the internet explorer I do not eve use so I don't understand why there are temporary files.

Hav0c Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Hey and welcome to the forum. The following two entries you have nothing to be concern about Windows Explorer - Thumbnail Cache System - Windows Log Files They are normal, day to day entries that are created by your system on a regular basis. For the other two, I just noted on my system, some software uses IE as the default Browser even though IE is not set as your default browser. Every line of code written by man can be undone by man .

Moderators mta Posted February 1, 2018 Moderators Share Posted February 1, 2018 you could also run Analyse, double click each of those entires, then right click the files shown and Add to Exclude List even though you may not use the IE browser, other MS products use IE libraries. (Skype, OneDrive, Defender, Office.... etc etc etc) 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Nergal Posted February 1, 2018 Moderators Share Posted February 1, 2018 They all look like regenerating empty files, to me 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.

"Maybe by unpinning certain things in the Windows Start Menu area will curb some of it" - but make sure you have a good system backup before messing around with the settings for an easy effortless way to undo any changes you may not like.
