Description
===========

CleanAfterMe allows you to easily clean files and Registry entries that
are automatically created by the Windows operating system during your
regular computer work.
With CleanAfterMe, you can clean the cookies/history/cache/passwords of
Internet Explorer, the 'Recent' folder, the Registry entries that record
the last opened files, the temporary folder of Windows, the event logs,
the Recycle Bin, and more.

CleanAfterMe is a portable application. This means that you can run it
without any installation and without leaving any trace in the Registry.
You can also run this program from a USB flash drive: In order to do
that, simply copy the executable file of CleanAfterMe (CleanAfterMe.exe)
into the USB flash drive, and run it from there.

Using CleanAfterMe
==================

In order to start using CleanAfterMe, simply run the executable file -
CleanAfterMe.exe
In the main window of CleanAfterMe, you can choose what do you want to
clean, by selecting the desired items. You must read the description of
each cleaning item before selecting it, so you won't clean something that
you want to keep. For some of the cleaning items, you can also use the
'Open' button in order to view the folder or Registry key that is going
to be cleaned.

After you selected the desired items that you wish to clean, you can
click the 'Show Cleaning Report' button. When using this option,
CleanAfterMe will show you the list of all files and Registry values that
are going to be deleted, but without actually cleaning anything.
After looking in the cleaning list and you see that everything is fine,
you can start the cleaning process by clicking the 'Clean Selected Items'
button.



Translating CleanAfterMe to other languages
===========================================

In order to translate CleanAfterMe to other language, follow the
instructions below:
1. Run CleanAfterMe with /savelangfile parameter:
   CleanAfterMe.exe /savelangfile
   A file named CleanAfterMe_lng.ini will be created in the folder of
   CleanAfterMe utility.
2. Open the created language file in Notepad or in any other text
   editor.
3. Translate all string entries to the desired language. Optionally,
   you can also add your name and/or a link to your Web site.
   (TranslatorName and TranslatorURL values) If you add this information,
   it'll be used in the 'About' window.
4. After you finish the translation, Run CleanAfterMe, and all
   translated strings will be loaded from the language file.
   If you want to run CleanAfterMe without the translation, simply rename
   the language file, or move it to another folder.
