Chapter 3. Separate PC Components
Clean-up
In the
One Click Clean-up
section you were able to execute
variants of
complex
PC clean-up (manually or scheduled), to clean a
number of
system
components
. These variants will suit most user needs.
However, if you need to quickly clean-up
separate system components
, use
Acronis PrivacyExpert
Internet Components
and
System Components
sections.
Separate component clean-up is described step by step further in Chapter 2 of
this Guide.
In particular, it explains where and how personal user information is kept, and
why it is necessary to perform separate component clean-ups (of for example
a swap file).
The following chapters are generally meant for
experienced PC/Windows
users
who are interested in actions that Acronis PrivacyExpert can perform in
specific cases.
Various
execution and set-up
capabilities of PC and separate components
clean-up variants of Acronis PrivacyExpert are described in detail above (see
1.6.3, 1.6.6 and 1.6.4). Clean-up of each component are set similarly, so this
will not be described further in the Guide. Only
specific
settings will be
explained. If you have questions, please follow the links provided.
