W7's cleanup has a "Thumbnails" category. The closest thing I can find in CC is Media Player thumbnails which I'm pretty certain is not what W7's cleanup is listing. Over the years I've added all kinds of things to CC with the enhancer app yet I fail to understand what I need to include in the default or enhanced settings to clean the thumbnails. Thank you! I must be wrong as CC seems to have just cleaned them up!
Doesn't the Thumbnail Cache option in the Windows tab clean thumbs in W7? I use this in Winapp2.ini in XP, [Thumbnail Cache] LangSecRef=3025 DetectFile=%HomeDrive% Default=False FileKey1=%HomeDrive%\|Thumbs.db|RECURSE It adds Thumbnail Cache to the "Windows" category at the bottom of the Applications tab and searches all of drive C, it takes quite a bit longer though. I tried it on W7 and it found a few but it seems like it should've found a lot more. You might have to change "Thumbs.db" to something else in W7. When I ticked the Thumbnail Cache option in the Windows tab it didn't find anything. ***UPDATE*** ratchet, I see your post was revised while I was writing the above. Good to hear it's resolved.
Installed the new CCleaner version slim and it doesn't look too bad. The previous version had a classic look imho. (Just like MBAM had a timeless looking (classic) sofware prior to releasing their new version). Some boxes I had to untick in CCleaner.
I'm not impressed with CCleaner's new UI or any changes under the hood. I'm sticking with my older version because it looks better, richer, and easier on the eyes. Looks like they made changes for change's sake. There's only so many ways to build a mop & bucket.
The real usefulness of CCleaner, I feel, is in the winapp2.ini and custom path (include) menu button. Not in gussying up the UI.. I must have 100-200 additions, definitions, and extra paths that ccleaner empties out.
There are many cats around, so why no to pick the one, that even looks good. But since the most software move towards the ugly 8 GUI, not so many choices.
I couldn't care less about the UI, actually metro on Win 8 is better looking than CCleaner, my only disappointment is that every new version is not getting faster, unfortunately...
Well other than the new GUI, there is nothing really new in version 5, so I do not get, what is all the fuzz about, it is the same old ... .
After reading all the complaints about the 'new' UI, i thought it'd be some new hideous thing. Instead, its just a flat look witht he same old UI !! So I don't really understand the complaints, all they're trying to do is make it adhere to the Windows UI which is now flat and 'Metro like'. What's wrong with that?
For me it's a lot harder to read. Its ugly too but I could live with that if it was still as readable as before.
Saying that is ugly is a personal opinion, but it is just unpractical, to me it looks like the GUI has been squashed by tires. But I use it through CMD, so whatever.
Same over here, the new GUI doesn't bother me. And I didn't even know you could manage the Task Scheduler with CCleaner.
