CCleaner erased my profile

Post by jackscagnetti1 »

CCleaner erased my profile and now its corrupt and doesn't work properly. How do i get it back? I keep getting failed to load preferences. This is strange cause I run CCleaner at work and its fine, but on my home computer it screwed iron up big time so it is unable right now.

@mapx is probably 99.9% right . CCleaner takes no prisoners. Visit your Chromium/User Data/Default folder and see what's in there. Once you get a new profile data MAY be copied to the new profile. This is especially true if you had a lot of bookmarks.
