Installing QuickClean
To see exactly what the default settings are, or to change them, click Settings
on the Options menu in the main QuickClean screen. Then in the next window
displayed, select any of the buttons available corresponding to the component
category you want to change the default setting on or view its default settings.
NOTE: The SpaceMaker, BackTrack, and QuickClean Lite wizards and
the PowerClean feature all have Settings dialog box pages where you
specify their default behavior, including the age that files must be before
they can be deleted.
You can change most option settings temporarily when you run a wizard, and
you can open the Settings dialog box page for the wizard and make permanent
changes to the default.
Table 2-2 on page 15 provides a brief description of each Settings dialog box
page and tells you where to find more information.
