NeoCleaner will be continued when I have the time for it... Which I don't even know when. If anyone here on Neowin wants to take up the coding, I'll send them the source. Or, people can write code for the bits that aren't finished and I can integrate them with the main source code.

New beta... :ninja:

Version 0.4.0.0 (BETA)

- Fixed dead main URL for Update Agent.

- Added drive settings for cleaning scan.

- Added option to try forceful deletion.

- Fixed bug where FolderExists function would return false when the folder did actually exist.

- Fixed background color bugs with settings toolbuttons when using Windows Classic appearance.

Try Update Agent, if not, here's the URL:

NeoCleaner Setup

EDIT: Thanks to Gelob who noticed that the uninstaller did not properly delete NeoCleaner's registry keys and values. This is fixed in a re-package of 0.4, now available for download.

Please do an uninstall of this new installer, then uninstall, then install again... lol.... or just delete HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Night Iguana\NeoCleaner.

Yeah, it's a weird one. I noticed that it was taking unusually long to complete its cleanup duties. Suspecting that the program had frozen (progress bar was not moving), I tried clicking one of the buttons. 'Update Agent' I think it was. That is when it crashed with an out of memory error.

Do you have a huge amount of files on ur PC? Does it freeze up during "Enumerating files and folders"? This might be because of filename caching in memory... I might disable it because it does use more memory.

For me it uses a max of 50 MB of memory during this part of the scan but drops back down to around 25 MB when completed.

Try uninstalling and reinstalling NeoCleaner. Make sure you have Windows Script 5.6 installed.

Um, how do I find out if I have Windows Script 5.6. I try to download it from Microsoft and validation is required. :angry:

I will try uninstalling/reinstalling.

EDIT: Nope uninstalling/reinstalling didn't fix it.

Hi jimbo,

Certainly looks interesting. A few things though...

1. When I enable Hide Windows Updates, I'm still seeing a lot of Windows XP Hotfixes in the remove programs list. After sending the output from NeoCleaner through WinMerge, I got the following list of files which WERE removed from the list

2. I don't recall reading anywhere in the past 30 pages about how long it took users during the Computer Cleanup analysis part. It takes almost 5 minutes on my laptop (P4/1.6Ghz/512Mb RAM/XP SP1), especially at the "Enumerating files and folders" part.

3. If I did an analysis and cancelled it, and started another analysis subsequently, I still see a "status bar" at the bottom of the progress bar page with values for "Total Results" and "Total Savings". Shouldn't these values only come up once an analysis is done and not while it's being done?

4. In the "Startup Programs" tab, am I supposed to be able to order the lists by clicking on the column titles "Title", "Location", "Path", etc? I'm not able to do this as of yet.

5. I don't have all my startup items listed in the "Startup Programs" list. Using Mike Lin's Startup Control Panel as a point of comparison, the items in his "Startup (common)" and "Startup (user)" tab do not appear in your "Startup Programs" list.

6. When selecting/deselecting items on the "Computer Cleanup" tab, I can click on the name of the item within each sub-section to select or deselect it. However, for the sub-section headers "Windows", "Internet Explorer", etc, I'm having to directly click on the tick box. Shouldn't it be the same for the headers as well as for the items under the header?

7. When I go to your webpage as listed on the very 1st post (http://www.neocleaner.net/), I get the following page:

NC.png

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v85/ramian/NC.png

It most certainly does not look like a page for NeoCleaner...

And some suggestions...

1. While the icon globe-like icon posted on the boards a few pages back does look nice, it isn't so on my desktop. I'm thinking it's the contrast on the white letters, but it just doesn't seem as clear as the icon posted on the threads. I'm not really good with graphics, so I don't really have any suggestions for you here.

2. When you do get to working on the browsers, I'd really really appreciate it if you could include cookie management for Opera (similar to the IE cookie management in CCleaner).

So far, it looks real good. I'll be playing around with it for a while and will certainly let you know if I find anything else. Oh, I'm using v0.4.0.0.

cheers!

Visual effects include options for masking, blue-screen, distortions, rotations, colour tools, blurring, obscuring and others. Configurable keyboard shortcuts and interface layouts. Rendering is done using a separate non-blocking process so it can be stopped, paused and restarted. Kdenlive also provides a script called the Kdenlive Builder Wizard (KBW) that compiles the latest developer version of the software and its main dependencies from source, to allow users to try to test new features and report problems on the bug tracker. Project files are stored in XML format. An archiving feature allows exporting a project among all assets into a single folder or compressed archive.

    • Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June games showcase week has been a packed one, with everything from major presentations like Sony and Summer Game Fest to indie-focused reveals coming in almost every day. Now, it's almost time for another big one, with Microsoft bringing its Xbox Games Showcase back later today. This is a double feature too, with a Gears of War E-Day deep dive also being attached to it. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase is kicking off at 10 AM PT | 1 PM ET | 6 PM BST | 7 PM CEST later today, June 7. The event will be available to watch on the official Xbox YouTube (4K 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, Steam, Amazon Live, and other portals. Separate livestreams for American Sign Language and Audio Description will also be available. "This year marks 25 years of XBOX, and this Showcase is poised to be a true celebration, offering world premieres, new gameplay, fresh updates, and more for a swathe of projects we cannot wait to share," said Microsoft about this presentation. With a new CEO behind it that is pulling off some interesting moves, Xbox may have some surprises to reveal today. New looks at first-party games like Halo Campaign Evolved from Halo studios, Fable from Playground Games, InXile Entertainment's Clockwork Revolution, Mojang's Minecraft Dungeons II, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 from Infinity Ward are to be expected here. We may finally get to see the new Blade from Arcane Studios in action and a new Persona game from Atlus at the showcase too. Surprise announcements may also arrive from other Microsoft-owned studios like Bethesda, MachineGames, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Rare, World's Edge, or Blizzard. Considering how every new release nowadays is staying away from November and December to avoid Grand Theft Auto VI's release, any launch dates Microsoft announces will probably skip those months as well. Once the Xbox Games Showcase ends, Microsoft will immediately kick off the Gears of War: E-Day Direct. This deep dive into the upcoming prequel from The Coalition should attach gameplay footage and perhaps a release window to the highly anticipated project.
    • People in the '50s and '60s had the same attitude, and we're still here over a half century later.
    • So after some fiddling I was able to get it to run at a pretty stable 30FPS. I'm slightly surprised about how much fiddling I had to do to get there though given what I thought was reasonable hardware: Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics Memory: 16 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor 1: AMD Radeon 780M Graphics Graphics Processor 2: AMD Radeon RX 7700S I think I could do it better if I use Linux rather than Windows, Windows RAM usage is stupid without stripping the system down. But once I got it working in a reasonable state, it was so awesome! I felt like a new Bond! If anyone has any advice to get things going a bit smoother FPS-wise, I'd appreciate it.
