I have my taskbar at the top of the screen. When I go to File | Settings, the window's title bar appears behind the taskbar. I can't grab a hold of it and move it anywhere.

I would just like to say that I tried the new PT2009 version and i am very impressed with the speed of user interface especially

when you removed the analog scale that used a lot of memory but the way you changed the registry cleaner is not so good because is

too big and complicated It`s not smal and readable like the PT2008,you can also try improve the history cleaner to be more faster and with more

options like internet cleaner or something like that.Beside those smaller changes this software is best on the market.

I wish Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all users of this forum and Macecraft Team i hope the new year will be filled with good

software with the upcoming PT2009 : .

I accidentle posted a feedback about beta3 testing in the Screenshots of PT 2009 section of this forum : ,but any way this is my report about beta3 .

Beta4 with a new testing time of 30 days will be released hopefully in this week. After Beta4 it's time for the RC1.

Unlike before, we will be taking this nice and slow this time, the release date is 2.2.2009 so there is absolutely no need to hurry and release the final version too soon.

An excellent approach that will have significant benefits!!! Thank you!!! The system utility marketplace is very competitive, with lots of companies looking to take jv16's crown. Take your time and get EVERYTHING functioning as well as possible.

I noticed today that files in C:\Users\Owner\Documents, for example, are not enumerated in FileCache.dat.

Why is that?

The creation of the File Cache is restricted by both time (i.e. it must not take too long, even if the user has dozen hard disks) and by directory structure (i.e. the process skips the deepest directory structures to save time).

Registry Cleaner -- structured list

Double clicking a detail line does nothing.

In the raw list, it causes a regedit window to come up with the line's key.

1. Before launching PT2009, delete, rename, or move . . .\Settings\Tips.dat.

2. Start PT2009 beta3 and, for one example, click the Registry Cleaner icon.

3. Drag-resize the tool window to make it wider. . . .

4. Added note: it does not happen with all tools (for example, History Cleaner, Startup Manager, and Software Manager don't do it). It also doesn't happen with a window already very wide -- to reproduce, you must make the window(s) to be widened small and exit PT2009 before doing step 1.

Here are more examples:

This bug is now fixed, thank you for reporting!

You are correct, small user interface things like this were not yet implemented. I have now added this handy feature, thank you for reporting!

I'm sorry but I don't quite understand, could you please rephrase?

tullik

He wants you to reissue beta3 with the trial license timer reset to give more time.

If beta4 comes out this week, reissuing beta3 would make little sense. :

Is there a way to make a message box follow its associated window when that window is minimized and restored?

This bug is now fixed, thank you for reporting! The next released version (Beta4) will contain the fix.

bllr wroteIf redseujac is correct ("..no need to compact the rest?") then I'd suggest repeating the numerical value in the right-hand column rather than having it show 'Unknown' which implies a problem of some form. …

I agree. Or put in that column to indicate that a windows return code said, in effect, "The hive already has maximum compaction."

You are correct, this little issue is now fixed. Thank you for reporting!

I am using Beta3, but this is happening to me with all last versions and all the pcs where I've tested this software (XP SP2, SP3, and VISTAx64).

When I right click an entry in the RCleaner results window, I get a context menu:

-Fix

-Custom Fix...

-Delete

-Remove from list

-Regedit

-Copy to clipboard

-Never show again

-Export as .reg file...

-Save as program backup file...

...but none of these options leads me to the registry entry at the windows registry editor. The option "Regedit" only makes the regedit.exe open, but doesn't lead me to the registry entry.

The same happens with "Registry Finder" and other features when I click "Open in regedit" in the context menu.
