BleachBit 0.8.7

BleachBit 0.8.7 improves command line support, imports winapp2.ini-style files allowing immediately for 440 additional cleaners on Windows, adds an Estonian translation, and more.

This lists the changes since version 0.8.6.

• Be a fan of BleachBit on the new Facebook page.
• Add command line option --preset which selects all the cleaners previously selected in the GUI.
• When showing a warning about an option, show the name of the option which generated the warning.
• Specific to Linux
  • Support Thunderbird on openSUSE 11.3 thanks to Manfred Schwarb (LP#668231)
  • Fix wrong button label when adding folders for overwrite disk space and for whitelist (pointed out by jtarin)
  • When cleaning localizations, show warning to point user to configuration
  • Packagers: BleachBit will try to use the built-in json module on Python 2.6+ instead of simplejson, which is still required on Python 2.5.
• Specific to Windows
  • Import winapp2.ini files: the CCleaner community maintains winapp2.ini files with about 440 cleaner definitions. Just download a winapp2.ini file and place it in one of the BleachBit cleaner directories: read Documentation: Winapp2.ini for more details.
  • Internet Explorer: delete autocomplete passwords
  • Support registry keys in the HKCR (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT) hive

Known issues

When cleaning History in Google Chrome, the bookmark icons (favicons) will be deleted (#734380). This should be fixed in the next release, and until then, see forum for workaround.
