Hi there,

since I used CrapCleaner/CCleaner for the first time, there was an annoying bug:
It doesn't remove any files in %temp%

Description:
I'm in German Windows XP SP2.
My current account is the administrator account (bad, I know, but I am an advanced user).

%temp% is

CODE

C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Administrator\Lokale Einstellungen\Temp

in short form:

CODE

C:\DOKUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOKALE~1\Temp

CCleaner doesn't detect files in there and doesn't remove them :-(
Of course, the checkbox is activated.

Currently, I'm running a batch-file to remove my temp-files:

CODE

rmdir /S /Q %temp%

It's a simple bug ... can you fix it please?

Best regards,
Tobias

Hello Tobias,

Please go to Options > Advanced, and UNtick the "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours" check box , should it be checked.

That ought to make a difference.
