I use Ccleaner and Glary Utilities when emptying trash files from my PC.
I 1st run Ccleaner for files and also clear the registry, then Glary right after.
Glary finds lots of registry problems and the temporary files cleaner has lots too.
So I click on fix and it says space recovered. Then I rescan with Glary, once again 2.94MB files found in red. I click on repair problems and the registry is cleared, I rescan and once again the temporary files has the same amount in red.
(edit) I just scanned again and this time it said 3.38MB files found in red...just an endless loop
(Edit again) I decided to uncheck everything EXCEPT the Temporary Files Cleaner and then scan. Within a split second 4.40MB files in red.Reapir problems, says fixed, scan again and the same number...amazing! Over and over.
Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks

I experience this too...with IObit Advanced System Care...seems that the junk files amount increases RAPIDLY...

P.S...that files are infact IE / Mozilla temporary files, Windows temporary files, and recycla bin files...

Mine is only in the temporary internet files of IE...if I run Ccleaner twice in a row, it stays empty, so I guess it is much better than Glary.
