    The installer only write one directory on the Program Files\UnCleaner that contains UnCleaner.exe and Uninstall.exe / Reg entry on the installer area.

    It is fully removed with Uninstall.exe that is acessible on Control Panel.

    I'll see the column and the explorer problem.

    Is really the concept of the app the slight simplicity of the configurations and I don't want to add more options to configure the main clean engine.

    Well that's interesting.
    Double clicking "C:\Users\Virtual\AppData\Local\Temp\acro_rd_dir\Cookies\index.dat" opened My Documents too :confused:
    Same for other normal path (no spaces, -, _, or any 'hard to get' path).

    These worked-
    C:\Users\Virtual\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail
    C:\Windows

    This one for example didn't-
    C:\Windows\Temp\TMP000008559EA179582174FCB9

    I'll drop the explorer.exe and start using the Shell for open the directory on a next update.

    Thanks for your feedback.

    Hi Josh,

    First of all, thanks for this great program! :)

    I'm having some problems clearing data. After cleaning several times, I'm still having 29.2GB which can be cleaned. I've also enabled auto clean but no different so far.

    I believe its the temp files..even Disk Cleanup can clear it.

    Please advise.

    Thanks!

    Sounds like that this amount of files is locked by some process or by the system.

    You've looked on the file report and the chart?

    BTW: You've an administrator account or you're running this app as 'Administrator'?

    Very good program, i just start using it. And i like it.
     
  14. And you did.

    Hey Josh. I want to say congrats on your application. Is certainly is unique and lightweight but I want you to help me understand something.

    Won't cleaning the prefetch folder actually make windows start slower? If the files are deleted, windows will be forced to re-create them every time it starts.

    If there is so many files around this folder, the Windows will be much times slower than re-creating again because every time it is looking for a lot of cached files stored on the folder.

    Hi Josh Cell:

    Is UnCleaner v1.7 compatible with Windows 8.1 with Media Center?

    Thanks

    Bug report:

    Uncleaner seems to erase Firefox sync and SteamGuard/Browser login data. It should neither or at least ask.
