    Glary Utils (free) not cleaning Firefox


    There have been a succession of recent updates to the free Glary utils software. I have used it for a long time, but today I noticed it didn't seem to completely clean my files. Therefore, I ran CCleaner, only to find many hundreds of Firefox cache and other files appearing in the cleaned list.
    Maybe Glary have restricted the free version to a very basic functionality. Has anyone else noticed or experienced this?
    Regards.

    :)

    Glary Utilities 12,000+ "Privacy Problems"


    Glary responded. And I wish to add that they responded very quickly--within hours of my using the contact form on their website. It was suggested that I completely uninstall Glary Utilities, download the latest version, temporarily disable virus software, and reinstall the latest version, all of which I did. I realized, though, that Glary Utilities wasn't the problem--I think Firefox was the problem. I believe a recent Firefox update changed some privacy and security settings. The problem may also be connected to recent Windows updates, but I'm not sure about this. I changed the Firefox settings, and now Glary finds very few privacy problems. Problem solved.

    So if you're having a problem with Glary Utilities finding far too many privacy problems, check your Firefox privacy and security settings!

    Thanks VERY Much for this updated info!! I thought all along it was Firefox myself, but I couldn't prove it, because I don't run Firefox. Glary utilities, has never done that with me. Thanks again for your information. *Smile
