Ccleaner
Hi, I hope you can help me. Ever since I update FF to 56.0 and to 56.0.1, every time I run Ccleaner, and when I open FF I am getting a page that says. "Well, this is embarrassing.
Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page." Why am I getting it now? I never got it before when I ran Ccleaner, how can i fix it?
Thank you,
Claudia

Re: Ccleaner
When will people realise it is a very bad idea to let ccleaner anywhere near Firefox? Simple fix? don't run ccleaner on Firefox

Re: Ccleaner
Because it has a bad habit of destroying profiles. Plus Firefox is capable of doing its own maintenance

Re: Ccleaner
not trustworthy as it seems. because lack of knowledge. ccleaner is more trustworthy, it shows more crap than firefox really contains, in special cookies and cache - and the very latest impact also includes trojan behavior ^^ ccleaner is best ^^

Re: Ccleaner
Expiration of cache & cookies, "vacuuming" of .sqlite database files, updating of blocklists & "safe browsing" lists, backups of some data (like sessions).How does FF do its own maintenance?
Stuff like that.
(Better question is why one would expect a third party application to know better what to do, how to do, then the original application itself?)
Fire 750, bring back 250.
