Sometimes when I open Comodo system cleaner (CSC), the window opens up with black boxes (as shown in the attached pic). After a few seconds, the appropriate graphics fill in the black boxes. This only happens when the window initially opens after running CSC. It does not happen when you refresh CSC after it has been minimized to the task bar (i.e. CSC is already running, but minimized to the task bar, and I restore the CSC window). These black regions still show up when I have no other programs running and when there is minimal CPU use.
The pie chart in the “wiper” section is not drawn correctly (the line that divides the pie slice is not drawn in the right place). I open the wipe section, then click on the “+” next to free space (or the “+” next to “disk0”, which is my used space)…and then the funky pie chart shows up. In fact, the funky pie chart remains even if you select a different CSC component (e.g. Registry cleaner) and then return to Wiper. If I close CSC and run it again, the funky pie chart is gone. See attached pic.
Also, the pie chart does not show the free space when you click in the “free space” or “disk0” check box (it just shows a full pie of used space).
I could not resolve the problems.
Both issues are consistently reproducible on my system.

I’ve downloaded CSC v2.2.335611.5 earlier today and the registry cleaner works okay.
When I use CSC, the Disk Cleaner and the Privacy Cleaner have no scan locations whatsoever. I’m not sure what to do.

After I do a complete scan with “clean my computer” (i.e. power clean), the window has a GUI error: the results and the buttons at the bottom of the screen are drawn over the progress bar (see pic). This only happens with power clean, and not when doing a scan with each individual cleaner (i.e. only reg cleaner, only privacy cleaner, and only disc cleaner).
Usability Suggestion
The results window of the power clean is not intuitive: the average user should not have to guess the meaning of CRC, CDC, CPC, CPCW. The abbreviations should be spelled out so it is crystal clear! (see correction in the pic).

Hi i did install CSC yesterday for the first time
it looks very nice
i did install it remotely on a other PC
i did move the install file throug windows share folders on the remote PC
and lunch the install with realVNC
it did install and then the installation seemed as never ending
so i did kill the installation and reinstalled it again
it did repair everything and then it seemed to never end again
so i did move the file from the shared folder on the destop throug realVNC
and all happened again
i did abort / kill the install again
then i did start it from the startmenu throug realVNC
and it did appear in the tasklist but no window
i took a break and realVNC did disconnect
then i whent to the other machine and there i saw the window of CSC
realVNC did run with the setting to black out the remote screen
when i did kill the realVNC remotescreen application through the taskmanager
the window did appear before realVNC did disconnect
i think the blankScreen or how ever this hidden realVNC process is named and CSC dont work together
i think it has maybe something to do with the CSC skin or semi transparent nonsence
please check this out and fix this bug
also some setings are not very clear
even not in a other language or after reading the help file
just as an example…
the system settings > USB settings, what are they doing? if i check them windows is checking the USB ports every millisecond or if i check them windows is checking the USB ports not every millicecond but every period of time?
what is windows doing originaly?
and why should this setting be better then te original setting?
i think at least in the help file you should provide more information about theese settings
something like…
the original setting in windows is XY, checking this option will set this value to XY, this is good for SOME REASON and maybe not good because a OTHER REASON
same on this bluescreen options to me they are far away from clear
and the search dublicate function is also very odd!
it searches for dublicates, then it makes a list … at the first place i get an entry Autoexec.bat
i can only see one autoecec.bat i cant find any dublicate
i can press the + sigen and this entry expands
then there is a list of files which have nothing to do with autoexec.bat
originaly my autoexec is blank
so why all theese entries appear as a subentry of the autoexec???
and whereshould be the dublicate???
and if i decide to delete the dublicate, will it delete the file on C: or the file which i cant find at a other place???
thats odd and i will never use this function until you make clear what happens!
I found one problem today after using SC on win7 64, what ever I have pinned to the icons on the taskbar have disappeared. I have lost slight functionality of the sticky notes “new notes” option when I right click the icon. I take it there is no way to restore the function or pinned items.
