    Help with CCleaner


    I regularly use CCleaner, probably around 3 times a week. The thing is, when it cleans out Firefox and Google Chrome, all my saved logins are gone. For example, I never log out of VF, SF or EF. My logins are saved. After using CCleaner, they aren't. Which options do I need to uncheck or check in the Chrome and FF sections to not lose my save logins or passwords.

    I also want to clean as much as I can including history, cache, cookies etc. What else is it safe to check? I'd like to check as many options as possible. I've attached a screenshot of my current options below.

    Uncheck cookies and that should eliminate the login problem.

    Right, so everything else should be fine to check?

    i agree, cookies store this info! the other stuff will not affect logins/passwords etc

    That's not going to hack it.

    Here I'll show you what I've got and what works!

    Incidentally, it is the session part that you need to uncheck.

    Oh? So checking cookies is fine? Hold on, I'll give it a try.

    Ccleaner is handy for stuff you don't need.. but every time I install it it seems to run autotmatically every now and then and forget my settings

    I don't run it automatically, manually IMO is much better.

    Anyway, I unchecked Session and check Cookies and I stayed logged in on EF but not SF. Seems strange, doesn't it?
