On Win10, BB 3.0 will sometimes stay minimised in the task bar and cannot be restored to a normal window. (a) Sometimes this happens if I close BB when the window is open on one monitor and then open BB later in a different multi-monitor configuration. (b) Sometimes this happens when I maximise the BB window on a monitor that is not the primary monitor and then minimise the window; I can't restore the window and have to kill the process.

I have reverted to BB 2.2

Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise Version 10.0.17134 Build 17134

Describe the bug The newest BleachBit v4.4.0 display unreadble text when I installed it on win7(64bit), Simplified Chinese operating system. Please see the screenshots below. I like this tools and expect this could be resolved, thank you.

To Reproduce

1. install the Bleachbit new version v4.40
2. It prompt old version BleachBit already exist, and follow the instructions to unstall the old one(v4.0.0)
3. continue to install BleachBit v4.4.0
4. run the BleachBit by click from the start menu on win7 64bit, Simplified Chinese operating system.
5. It display unreadble text srceen after the window opened.

The error happens (sometimes/every time).

Expected behavior Tt should display nornal Simplified Chinese screen just like the install process.

This issue occurs on a Windows 10 laptop running BleachBit 1.12. This has been happening for awhile, but I thought it was an issue with the Winapp2.ini so I didn't report it. Then I realized it shouldn't matter what's in the file, it still shouldn't crash, heh.

It should be noted I can't duplicate this on systems without Steam, Origin, etc. So it has to be an issue with deleting things that are there because if they aren't there it runs fine.

I can run all of the other options in BleachBit, but if I choose any of the options within the games category, the crash happens the second the games category starts cleaning.

The only thing I can do to clean my system is uncheck the games category.

I'm not really sure what other information I can give, so if you need anything else please let me know. I have included the log file here.

UPDATE: This issue occurs on Windows 10 regardless of version, and occurs on BleachBit 1.12 and the latest commit built from GitHub.

The issue is with the "Steam Games", "Steam Installers", and "Steam Logs" entries.

Those entries contain these values:

For an eventual py3-transition we need better unit test coverage.

What's planned / done:

• [X] Introduce a custom base class with better tempfile handling and asserts
• [ ] Convert asserts / tempfile creation to use the class
• [x] Convert asserts from self.assert_ to more meaningful asserts (especially self.assert_(isinstance(...))
• [ ] test for unicode / bytes explicitly

Todo-tracker for supporting both Python 2 and 3:

• [X] print statements (PR #153)
• [x] require six
• [x] absolute imports
• [ ] unicode / str-split (types for unit tests)
• [x] merge GTK 3 port (PyGTK isn't available for Python 2)

Some cleaner take long to "load" at start, when option "only needed" is checked ("Vuze Case") My English... :-D

OK, I have now the "Vuze Case" also on BiglyBT and on my Windows Cleaner...

Is it really sure, that the check stops, after the first file, the cleaner finds ???

Can you display a bit more what the cleaner do in console for debugging ???

Whats about the case, I cleaned e.g. Vuze immediately before, then the cleaner can't find anything and have to run to the end, right?

Is maybe a < Detect >-Rule a solution for such scanners that have to scan a big amount of files ???

Starting from BleachBit-3.1.0.1496-portable https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/821f953c72ebfabaa4247caf7c0aa86cb90cd96b2df8e915910605326cbf04a2/detection

I recently tested Bleachbit 4 in Windows 10, but it didn't start at all. I believe I had the latest version; I installed it within the past 48 hours, unless you've updated Bleachbit within that time frame. In case it becomes important, I was running Windows 10 version 1909.

I do see a bleachbit.exe process in Task Manager, but no Bleachbit window opens. Running bleachbit_console.exe just opens a blank black window that does nothing. Bleachbit 2.0 ran just fine on the same installation of Windows, but I'd rather not have to go back to that.

Love to see Mac OSX Support.

i started working on it but love to see more people helping me with the effort , i am beginner python coder so it might be over ambitious project.

After upgrading to Fedora 35, the command "sudo bleachbit" takes a long time to execute and sometimes leading to system freeze.

I have been experiencing the problem ever since I upgraded my system to Fedora 35.

• OS: Fedora 35
• BleachBit version: 4.4.0

BleachBit - Unable to Delete Internet Temporary Files IE8 in Windows XP

After cleaning Internet Temporary Files IE8 in Windows XP the directories and desktop.ini files are not deleted.

ex. C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\2IW1KED4\desktop.ini C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\LS10OW75\desktop.ini

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\desktop.ini C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\index.dat

The error occurs in the BleachBit version 2.0 and 2.1 Beta

Help

To reproduce

1. In Windows Explorer, copy files to clipboard
2. In BleachBit application, press CTRL+V

Or

1. In Windows Explorer, copy files to clipboard
2. In BleachBit application, click application menu
3. Click Shred Paths from Clipboard

What happens

Error is printed to console, but no files are previewed or deleted.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bleachbit\GUI.pyc", line 241, in cb_clipboard_uri_received
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_uris'

System

• Build 2310 (new Python 3.10 and GTK 2.24)
• Windows 10

To reproduce

1. Open application (either with admin permissions or not)
2. Click the application menu
3. Choose the Make Chaff option

What happens

• Application immediately closes
• No error message in GUI
• Nothing printed to console (bleachbit_console.exe)

System

• Build 2310 (new Python 3.10)
• Windows 10

In build 2310 (new Python 3.10), application no longer requires:

• %localappdata%\fontconfig directory
• fc-cache.exe
• etc\fonts directory

The file fontconfig-1.dll is still needed.

So remove fontconfig from

• [ ] bleachbit.nsi
• [ ] setup_py2exe.py
• [ ] GUI.py
• [ ] Windows.py
• [ ] _init.py (FONTCONFIG_FILE environment variable)

When enabling the theme in the preferences, the console is filled with pages of messages like this

A while ago, Max noted the Windows 10 theme was broken, so this is not news. This is just to track the issue. The theme will either be replaced (fixed) or removed.

This error was seen when cleaning with build number 2310 (Python 3.10) on Windows 10. It happened during the first clean for each application session. (In other words, it did not happen until restarting the application and cleaning again.)

Now, I am using CCleaner by two reasons: smart cleaning for browsers and cleaning schedule.

I think it will be useful if this app also has those features.
