A minor issue with HKCU registry keys
Forums:
Using Windows 7 Pro SP1, can you advise which options should be deselected so that BB ignore these registry keys. I am unable to retain the Windows explorer display columns order as I set it after running BleachBit. It reverts to the default.

The entry is under the
The entry is under the "Microsoft Windows" section and it will be named "ShallBags". You can uncheck that entry and it should fix your issue.
I believe, if you check that entry, a warning is displayed which it will tell you what it does, for future reference.

This comes from Winapp2.ini
This comes from Winapp2.ini, and instead of whitelisting, I suggest unchecking this option called ShellBags.
[ShellBags*]
DetectOS=6.1|
LangSecRef=3025
Detect=HKCU\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell
Default=False
Warning=This will delete window size, window position and view setting of all folders.
RegKey1=HKCR\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\BagMRU
RegKey2=HKCR\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Bags
