Linux

This did not happen until 0.7.0 came out so I am certain that there is something in the newly added clean-up features that erases the components that are Dropbox daemon. I have not yet isolated the problem, but if you use Dropbox automatic file backup utility (www.getdropbox.com), you may want to unselect the newly added features such as Deep Scan. Otherwise next time you try to link Dropbox to your harddrive it will have to download and reinstall the daemon. In any case files saved in your Dropbox directory (usually /home/you/Dropbox/) remain intact.

I moved the topic here from the forum at

Regarding "bleachbit --user xyz" you can try this command

HOME=/home/bob sudo bob bleachbit.py --delete firefox.cache

When run as root, that changes the HOME variable to /home/bob, changes to the
user bob, and runs the command.

/endquote

Thanks for the suggestion. I hadn't got round to trying out the CLI until now.

I set up a shell script as follows:

HOME=/home/xyz/
cd $HOME
bleachbit --delete evolution.cache

A option in the program which i can't find always sort of cleans the desktop.

This means after running Bleachbit and restarting all the desktop icons and custom emblems will be reset.

Original size, original icon, original position sorted by name. I just want to get a quick answer on what to disable for this so i don't have to restart hundreds of times to test out all the options.

Other than this small issue, the program works like a charm. I'm grateful to have found this program in the first place
