Moderators Augeas Posted May 12, 2019 Moderators Share Posted May 12, 2019 The only thing you can do explicitly to any non-system disk is wipe free space with Drive Wiper. You can include folders and files on non-system disks by adding them to the Include list, have a look at the documentation to see how it's done.

APMichael Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 That's right. You can't delete an entire drive, only files and folders. You can only use "F:\" if you change "File Types" from "All Files" to "File Types:" and specify the files you want to delete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ben CCleaner Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 @azarober If you are trying to delete an entire drive, please use the 'Drive Wiper' function found in the Tools section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azarober Posted May 13, 2019 Author Share Posted May 13, 2019 BUT!!! I am NOT trying to delete the drive, BUT to CLEAN IT as I do with the system drives C: and D: !!! That's means what I asked in my first post: TO APPLY CCleaner on my external disks TO CLEAN and ANALIZE them ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators hazelnut Posted May 13, 2019 Moderators Share Posted May 13, 2019 Because your F drive doesn't have an operating system on it, I'm afraid you cannot clean it like you clean your C drive. On your C drive there is a structure which CCleaner can see C\Windows C\Program files C\Temp etc., etc., These don't exist on your F drive do they? It's just files and folders which you put on there yourself?
