  1. Imho, if you share your machine with other people, yes.

     

    A workaround could be to use a password manager like StickyPassword (as an example).

    It stores your passwords (on your machine or in the cloud or both), then it enters your passwords when needed.

    You can also tell it to block itself when you move away from your pc.

    You need to remember just one password (the masterpassword) to open the program. 

    You mustn't forget the masterpassword, otherwise you'll lose all your passwords.

  2. I'm using the portable version, but I have now tried the installed one.
    It also finds firefox cache.

    Did you already try these ones?

    • uninstall WDC
    • check if "C:\Program Files (x86)\Wise\Wise Disk Cleaner" folder is still present (it should be removed by the uninstallation).
      If present, delete it.
    • check if "C:\Users\YourWindowsAccountName\AppData\Roaming\Wise Disk Cleaner" folder is still present (it should be removed by the uninstallation).
      If present, delete it.
    • Reinstall WDC
  3. Hi Wesley909. :)

     

    I made a quick test with both (only firefox entries enabled).

    CCleaner found 60 files and 6 cookies.

    WiseDiskCleaner found 56 files and 4 cookies.

    Imo, not a big difference.

    ccleaner found these (WDC didn't find them) and some cookies:

    • index.sqlite
    • cookies.sqlite-shm
    • cookies.sqlite-wal
    • formhistory.sqlite
    • permissions.sqlite
    • sessionCheckpoints.json
    WDC found this (ccleaner didn't find it): content-prefs.sqlite

     

    Later, I fixed those items with WDC, then analysed again with ccleaner and it didn't find the items removed by WDC (it found the items that WDC didn't find, obviously).

     

    Using Win10STD x64, firefox 56.0 x64, WDC 9.5.6.678 portable and Piriform CCleaner 5.35.6210 free portable.

  4. That option checks whether "windows update" is set to automatic.

    If "windows update" is not set to automatic, clicking on FIX should correct this problem and therefore "windows update" will be set to automatic.

    This option is present in menu - settings - custom checkup - security projects - "check availability of windows update service".

    If you don't want wise care 365 to check the "window update" state, untick the option: wise care 365 will skip this check at next checkup.

     

  5. Hi RICK-pc. :)

     

     

    Open wise care 365 shortcut properties (right-click on it, properties) and change the paths in it with your new paths.

    If you removed wise care 365, then you can delete wise care 365 link.

    If you still can't solve the problem, reinstall wise care 365, or use its portable version (in this case, you will have to create a new shortcut on your desktop, if you want it on your desktop).

     

    Hope this helps.

  6. Hi KNRover. :)
     
    Bug confirmed.
    It worked only after I modified the shortcut:

    • In the link tab, destination, I have added the -safe parameter: "MyPath\Wise Registry Cleaner 9\WiseRegCleaner.exe" -a -safe
    • In the compatibility tab, I ticked run as administrator.

    I tried also the other two possible combinations: -a and -a -all.
    They didn't work.
    I'm not sure what should do the -a parameter alone.

    It also seems WRC:

    • doesn't create a backup of the deleted entries
    • doesn't check exclusions

     

    Wise Disk Cleaner 1-click instead works, but it doesn't query/use the usercustom.ini.
     



    I'd modify WRC parameters and their behavior:
    • -a should be removed.
    • -all should be removed
    • -safe: WRC will scan the sections specified by the user, then it will delete only safe entries.
    • -advanced: WRC will scan the sections specified by the user, then it will delete all entries (safe and not safe).
    • -allsafe: WRC will scan all sections, then it will delete only safe entries.
    • -alladvanced: WRC will scan all sections, then it will delete all entries (safe and not safe).

    After that, the one-click icon should be set with the -safe parameter (and run as administrator).

  7. Pc checkup: it says I have 5 residual files, but I still can't check what they are.
    Rescue center: storage still doesn't show itself completely (but the tooltip works).
    Hardware detection:
    - scroe is written instead of score.
    - first string says imedia s2870DESKTOP: true, but a space is missing before desktop.
    - in the monitor entry, Resolution isn't translated in my language.
     
     After half hour past the new installation, I received this error:

     

    ---------------------------

  8. The file favicons is in %localappdata%\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default.
    I.e., in %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\.
    It's about 20MB (on my machine, at least).

    I also noticed some doublets found by Wise Care 365 (and probably also by WDC).

    Doublets:
    Favicons-journal
    History-journal
    Network Action Predictor-journal
    QuotaManager-journal
    Shortcuts-journal
    Top Sites-journal
    Web Data-journal


    This is present three times (thrice?):
    Login Data-journal
