Safe-Clean

By , 5 Feb 2002
 

Introduction

Safe-Clean is an effective tool that sweeps out trash or what is considered to be trash by the author/user. In this utility, the scanning rules are divided into two parts, SweepMyDrive and CleanMyTracks.

It also has numerous other elements that enhance the interactive activities of the tool.

As soon as you install any software on your system, the installer creates innumerable temp and log files that are absolutely barren. After exhaustive study of the working habits of the disk, we found that these essentially reduce the speed of the system, apart from devouring an unwarrantable amount of space. Therefore, sanity calls for eliminating all such noxious files.

Now exactly how do these prove to be inimical?

The sum total of all the significant and junk files gives a colossal quantity of debris.

Important files + Junk files = Colossal trash

Hi,
 
When I try to run this program, I get the following error:
 
:\documents and settings\azi\desktop\mfc\safeclean\staticfader.h(13) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'E:\safeClean\SafeClean\CAutoFont\AutoFont.h': Permission denied
SafeCleanDlg.cpp
 
Do you have any idea why I get this problem.
 
Thanks.

Delete the original path from the file and replace with your new one.
 
'E:\safeClean\SafeClean\CAutoFont\AutoFont.h' replace this with your current working directory\\CAutoFont\AutoFont.h'
 
and if you get error during compiling (e.g error in hlp file ... delete the help file and then complie)
