Cache Cleaner 3 problems?

Post by [OMA]Bite_Me »

Hi all,
Ever since the last 6 months or so, cache cleaner is not working properly. When i open it I get a box that says I need to point it to the UT root folder. Previously this was never needed, or at least I did it once and it remembered. Now that won't stick and happens every time I open CC3. I also need to point it to the cache folder once I set the root.

Any info would be appreciated

thanks

That program is at the level of the last century: it writes its configuration data to HKLM key in the registry:

Usually normal users don't have write access there.

Solutions:
1) Run that program once as Administrator and set the path.
2) Add the registry key manually (as Administrator).

Xbrowser has a built-in cache cleaner so you can actually do it in UT.

Thanks for that Barbie and Dr. Flay!

Barbie, can you tell me what registry to add?

I assume it's the cache directory one in your pic and i put in the correct path to my cache folder?
