"Remove God Mode link from Desktop" is not a tweak in my opinion. It is rather the opposite. I mean creating God Mode link on Desktop would be a tweak :

"Browser History Data" and "Browser Cookie data"

I've deactivated all other collected errors and then I used fix "Browser History Data". After starting "System cleaner" again, I got the message there are no errors or unneeded data found.

The next start jv16 PT works normal and the tool founds new errors.

P.S. The old problem is not fixed. Editing the file "places.sqlite" destroys bookmarks or makes them useless.

Known bugs (no need to report, we are working on a fix):

...

7) Using the browser data cleaning feature of System Cleaner can disable or clean the bookmarks from Firefox browser. So far three users have reported this. We have not been able to reproduce or fix this yet.

Just looked at the list of backups. The dates seem a bit random - or am I misreading?

I confirm.

It also says: "They are in chronological order with the latest backup first on the list".

That should mean, that the latest date is first on the list and the first backup date at the botom of the list

in order to create a logical timeline of sorts!!? : : :?

Instead, it seems to be sorted (ascending) by the 'codes' in the first column.... :

The backups are now chronologically (decending) ordered!

System Cleaner - System Restore Point issue

1) Although in Settings of System Cleaner "Always create a System Restore Point before Cleaning" is selected, NO System Restore Point is created before cleaning.

2) When I clicked Fix, a Warning was shown that System Restore seemed to be disabled on my system, while in fact it IS enabled on drive C:\ (not on D:\ and E:\) :

Obviously the System Restore feature does NOT work properly and that's rather an alarming finding.

Hi please work more on the feature of removing programs that it does not work fully only delete files but not 100%

jv16

Initial Setup

1) Not faster than previous builds

On average in our test systems it is. More speed improvements are still coming, too.

2) Does NOT create a System Restore Point (in previous builds neither)

The program calls the Windows API to create a System Restore Point. If Windows refuses to do so, I'm afraid there is nothing we can do about it. I think this is what is going on here.

This is the issue mentioned in the Known Bugs list in the release notes. The feature is supposed to allow user to add or remove the God Mode link from desktop, depending if one already exists there or not.

We are working on improvements for the Software Uninstaller. If you have programs that it cannot uninstall, please list the names of those software and we can add them to our testing routines. At the moment we are testing with about 100 third party software in our software uninstallation testing.

OK. Actually when I removed the link I have to add it again manually. The feature "remove" is not replaced by "add" :

Notice that the "tweaks" do work for "Enable Windows Registry Backups". After "Enable" this feature is replaced by "Disable..." and vice versa.

My Account issue fixed

In this build the My Account issue seems to be fixed, i.e. the Licensed version does not turn into the Trial version anymore after one day.

I suggest you add a button when "clean and fix" is proposed, and once the scan is done and propose to execute.

You warn that a safeguard is done but that we should use also the windows restoration point.

I suggesrt you add the button : execute with the windows restoration point.
