Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] C cleaner. , Yes, CCleaner works very well with JAWS 9. The program is set up in a standard dialog box structure where you can use the tab key and shift-tab to move forward and backward through a dialog box. You can also use Alt key with the underlined letter of a control to activate it so that you don't have to tab to the control and press spacebar or enter. For example, Alt-R activates the "Run" button, which starts the scanning and removal process for the page of the dialog box that is active, which is the Windows page when you first start the program. When you first use the program and press Alt-R a child dialog box will appear with the OK button in focus. If you use the tab key you can move to a checkbox for telling the program not to show this confirmation box, and check it by pressing spacebar. After checking the box tab to the OK button and press spacebar. JAWS will announce the percentage of completion as the program scans and removes items, but quite often after hearing "100 percent" scanning and removal will begin for another area of the computer, so you should wait a few seconds after hearing JAWS say 100 percent to see if it starts announcing percentage progress again. If you route the JAWS cursor to the PC cursor, do a page up, and use down arrow to the line under where the "Windows tab and applications tab" are shown, you will hear whether or not cleaning is complete. This might vary a little on different systems, but the scanning complete notice should be given on a line not far under the page tabs. After you have made PC cursor active again you can use tab or shift tab to move to where JAWS says "Windows tab" and use right arrow to move to the Applications page tab. Use Alt-R again to run the program in this page. Before running the program you probably want to set the program to only remove the types of items you want removed. After opening the program and before invoking the "run" button, use Shift-tab to move to the tree view of choices. If you use the shift-tab then you will find the tree view of choices after you hear the page tabs announced. Use down arrow in the tree view and check or uncheck items using the spacebar. For example, if you don't want all cookies removed then be sure to uncheck the cookies choice. You can always remove tracking cookies with a different program such as Super Anti- Spyware or Ad-Aware. Keep using down arrow through the choices in the tree view and use spacebar to check or uncheck items. the checkmark means that those types of items will be removed, if not checked then those items will be left alone. I think you can feel pretty comfortable with the default settings, although if you don't want the recycle bin emptied then you might uncheck that item, or if you don't want "auto complete form history" deleted then you can uncheck that box, etc. The only one I have unchecked in the Internet Explorer list of items is the cookies choice, as I only want tracking cookies removed. If you use tab key to move to the page tabs and right arrow to the "applications tab", you can then use shift-tab to move back to the tree view and find a list of programs that have cached temporary files that you can remove. If you want to uncheck any of these choices then use down arrow and uncheck the box, but I think that you probably will just want to leave the default settings. After you have set your choices they will remain as set for subsequent times when you use the program. Each time you run the program you will only need to use the run command by pressing Alt-R for the Windows page of the dialog and then move to the applications page and perform the run command with Alt-R. Take care and have a great day! Brian Lee Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] C cleaner. Hello Sue, I recommend that you run the program manually because there are two page tabs in the program. If you run it automatically with the /auto switch, I think that you will only be cleaning items in the Windows page of the program. There is an "applications" page in the program where cached items from other programs are cleaned, which should be done after cleaning the items under the Windows page. If you want to close the program when cleaning is finished you can go into advanced settings by pressing Alt-O for options and then using tab key to move to the advanced button. After pressing spacebar on the advanced button you can tab to a checkbox for closing program when cleaning is complete and use spacebar to check the box or to remove the check mark. Also if you press Alt-O and then use tab key to move to the settings button and press spacebar, you can then use tab key to move to a checkbox for starting the program when Windows starts. Another setting that you might or might not want to change is in the advanced settings of the program and is for only cleaning items from the Windows temp folders that are more than 48 hours old. It is simply a checkbox that can be checked or not checked, but by default it is checked. Again, I recommend you manually do the scanning and scan in both the Windows and the Applications pages of the program. In fact, I noticed under applications there are such items as Windows Defender, regedit, Adobe Reader, MSN Messenger, Sun Java, Office and others. I might be wrong, but I think that if you perform the "run" function when you first start the program that it only will clean for the page of the program that is the active page. If one run cleans both the items in the Windows page and the Applications page then of course an autorun should work well. Take care. Brian Lee To use the registry cleaner in CCleaner: 1. Open CCleaner from the desktop icon. 2. Tab to the registry button and press spacebar. 3. Tab five times to the tree view of items to be included in the scan. Registry integrity will be the opened level in the tree structure. 4. Use down arrow to the various choices under registry integrity. Each one will be checked. If you don't want a particular item included in the scan then press spacebar to remove the checkmark. The following items will be in the tree view: Missing shared DLLS Unused file extensions ActiveX and class issues Type libraries Applications Fonts Application paths Help files Installer Obsolete software Run at startup Start menu ordering MUI cache. 5. Tab past the list view, which will have zero items before the scan. 6. Tab to the "scan for issues" button and press spacebar. 7. When the scan starts the "cancel button" will be in focus. Use shift-tab to move to the list of items being found. If you want to when the scan is done you can use down arrow in the list and use spacebar to uncheck anything you don't want included in the fix. All missing DLLS will be shown first in the list, then all missing unused file extensions, etc. The list will reflect all items in the order of the choices in the tree view. In the class section of the scanned problems you will find such things as "open with application" issues, "invalid default icons" help file issues, activeX problems and others. The entire path of files being referenced in the registry is shown. Installer reference issues and uninstaller issues are also listed with complete paths. 8. Tab twice from the list to the "fix selected issues" button and press spacebar. You will be asked if you want to backup changes to the registry, which is a nice addition to the program. I suggest answering "yes." You will be shown a "save as" dialog. The file name suggested starts with CC for CCleaner and then shows the date and time starting with the year. It is a .reg file. Save it where you wish to. If you have Vista you can route JAWS to PC, do a page up, and arrow down to the line where the save to location is found to know where the file is being saved. Turn on PC cursor and then tab to the save button and press spacebar. 9. The dialog box that appears will show the first problem found. You can route JAWS to PC, do a page up and then arrow down a line at a time to hear the problem. After putting on PC cursor you can then tab to the "fix issue" button to resolve the problem being shown, or use tab key to move to the "fix all selected issues" button and press spacebar. 10. A dialog will appear asking if you are sure you want to fix either the issue or all selected issues. Press spacebar on OK. 11. If you chose to fix all issues then in the resultant dialog you will be shown how many issues were fixed. Use JAWS cursor to read the information. Turn on PC cursor and use tab key to the close button and press spacebar. 12. You can then close CCleaner. If it doesn't close with Alt-F4 or through a system menu then close it with the JAWS cursor. Route JAWS to PC, do a page Up to the top of the window, arrow down once and press home key. use CTRL-left arrow to move to the last graphic on the first line of the window and do a left mouse button click simulation (slash on the number pad if using a desktop configuration or caps lock with the number 8 on a laptop configuration). You might run the scan again and find additional items. Take care.

Buttons there include Analyze, Run CCleaner, CCleaner and Registry. What is the difference between the Run CCleaner button and the CCleaner button? Also, do you click the Registry button if you want it to simply clean the registry without performing its other functions? I assume you click the Analyze button if you simply want it to create a report of problems it found without actually resolving them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
