Error in accessing cookies to keep (whitelist)

Forums: 
Forum tags: 

I installed bleachbit-512-beta on my Windows 10 machine a couple of days back.

While trying to manage the whitelist of cookies to keep, I noticed some funny behaviour. Then I saw these lines in red pop up when I bring up the cookie manager.

===================
Failed to read cookie keep list C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\BleachBit\cookie_keep_list.json: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Roaming\\BleachBit\\cookie_keep_list.json'
Enumerating cookie hosts took 2.77s

Virus?

Shredding a file after I was done with it to be informed that I couldn't because it doesn't exist. So I tried to delete the folder and the same thing happens. Look at it instead of just clicking, and realize that it's name changed, check it, and it's the same folder, same contents, but renaming itself.

Virus? How do I whack this mole, is this a new way to keep trackers from being deleted or something? This was a web document in my download dir not a system file.

Hi all,

I've posted in reddit but having slow progress there so coming to the source.

I ran BleachBit for the first time and since then whenever I try and install anything it never works.
The full reddit thread is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/82vwlm/i_just_installed...

Here are the key points:

When I try and install anything with apt install etc it fails.

sudo apt install nautilus-image-converter

It spits out this error:

Is there any restriction on custom files/folders for deletion?

Hi,
I currently use Bleachbit 1.12 under Linux Mint 18.
I have a long list of (localization) files for deletion due to some non-standard/manual software installations.
I've manually added them via Edit > Preferences > Custom and there's nothing wrong with their locations af far as I can see - e.g. /home/sadi/.local/share/locale/ru, (user) /opt/bluegriffon/distribution/extensions/[email protected] (system).
However, I don't see them listed during Preview, or Cleaned afterward.

Windows auto deployment

Forums: 

Hi to all, I am new to this forum, and also to Bleachbit.
My goal is to automate the deployment on large number of machines (usually I make scripts in AutoIT)
My questions:
1)How to install Bleachbit with with the option to download winapp2.ini already checked ?
2) Or in alternative: can I run Bleachbit pointing to a winapp2.ini on a shared folder and use it ? (also because I have machines not browsing the internet...)

BleachBit finds passwords to delete even though Chromium is set to not store passwords

Forums: 

Browser: Chromium version 60.0.3112.78 (Developer Build)
OS: Linux Mint 18.2 (32-bit)

I have encountered an odd problem with BleachBit and Chromium:
I have Chromium set to not save any passwords, yet when I close the browser and click on "Clean" in BleachBit (standard, non-root version), BB identifies that I have passwords.
This happens every time without fail, yet in the right-hand pane in BB I can see that no passwords have been deleted.

About two weeks ago, Bleachbit started throwing up the above errors everytime I used it.

Tried to report as a bug to it's website but kept getting routed to Ubuntu for some insane reason. I am currnetly using Bleachbit in both Debian and Windows 7 and am quite happy with it, apart from these three errors?. This problem is occuring in Windows 7.
