All CCleaner INI files must be located in the application
installation folder (typically, C:\Program Files\CCleaner). By
default, none of the INI files exist when you first install the
application.
Winapp2.ini - If you create this INI file, you
can add entries for new software that CCleaner can clean. See How to add your own program for CCleaner to
clean.
Winapp1.ini - If you create this INI file, any
applications you list in it will replace the default applications
on the Applications tab of the Cleaner area. See the same section
for more information.
Winsys2.ini - If you create this INI file, you
can add new areas of Windows files or Registry items for CCleaner
to clean. See How to add other areas of Windows for
CCleaner to clean.
Winsys1.ini - If you create this INI file, any
areas of Windows you list in it will replace the default ones on
the Windows tab of the Cleaner area. See the same section for more
information.
CCleaner.ini - This file contains all settings
for CCleaner that can be set within the program. If you are running
CCleaner Portable, or if you set CCleaner to save its settings to
an INI file (see Changing
Advanced Settings, CCleaner will save its settings to
CCleaner.ini. For more information on modifying this INI file, see
Using CCleaner.ini to modify how CCleaner
runs.
Note: The portable version of CCleaner 'knows' that
it is portable because of the presence of the file portable.dat in
the application folder. If CCleaner finds the file portable.dat in
the application folder, it will always save its settings to
CCleaner.ini. The contents of the portable.dat file do not matter -
you can create a dummy file.
