- We have also added improved cleaning support for HTML5 database storage, allowing CCleaner to effectively manage the next generation of web applications.
- Additional cleaning support for Microsoft Silverlight Isolated Storage.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll download it later, when I'm on my computer. I like it that there's a x64 version.
 
Drive Wiper sounds like a nice feature, although tbh they (MS) should make this a standard Windows feature. It can go in Windows8.
 
Thanks for the heads up, given it a run on my laptop. Used the drive wiper, don't have a way to test to see whether data is actually recoverable.
 
Couple of probs.

First, I installed this over the old install as per their usual recommendation.

However now it cannot detect the software I have installed e.g. firefox, there's no option to wipe it.

Secondly, when I run the new drive wipe feature on my flash drive it crashes.
