How do you run Crap Cleaner for All Users?


Just before you start, take this note : This cleans the user when they login. So you wont have to login to every user and clean their account.

Step 1 : Right, first off. If you don't have Crap Cleaner you can download it HERE

Step 2 : You are going to make a shortcut to the Crap Cleaner with the path

CODE
"C:\Program Files\CCleaner\ccleaner.exe" /AUTO


and place this in your

CODE
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup


directory.

So, when you login. The program runs silently and then cleans with the default options.

and who would like to make own slim version of CCleaner? Here's the guide:

- open ccsetupxxx.exe in 7-Zip File Manager with command 'Open Inside'
- extract everything to new folder
- delete everything ,including $PLUGINSDIR & $TEPM folders, except these two files: CCleaner.exe & winapp.ini
- now you have your CCleaner app slimed to 745KB wink.gif

Thanks, even though I knew about the AUTO option, it never struck me to use it this way.

This guide was written in May 2006 so things might have changed and to your question : It gives people like you a reason to moan.

I don't know but this is a resurrected thread.

CCleaner has a "Run at startup" option, and their website already have a slim version for download.
