How to install CleanMem on Windows Vista.
« on: October 09, 2010, 03:02:49 AM »
Hello,

I tried several times to install CleanMem but I cannot fix it. My computer runs on Windows Vista. Some people told me that the installation process of CleanMem for Windows Vista is a little different. Is this true?

Does some-body have any experience with CleanMem on Windows Vista.
Can I find information about the installation process of CleanMem for Windows Vista?

Hope some of you want to help me further.


Thanks a lot,

Online

Its no different at all.

First check if you have 32 or 64 bit.
Click the start menu, right click on "Computer" and choose properties.

IN the middle of the window that comes up it will say 32 or 64 bit.

Now run the cleanmem installer (You may want to right click and choose run as admin just in case)

Hit next all the way through. At the end of the setup it will ask if your system is 32 or 64 bit. Choose the right one then finish.

Thats it. Nothing else to do. You can open the windows task scheduler to make sure cleanmem is in there and set to run every 30 min by default.  :wink:

He might be having issues with User Account Control (UAC).  I recall that something didn't work the way I expected it to when I had UAC turned on but it was some time ago. I don't recall what version of CleanMem it was and I haven't had UAC turned since but I get the feeling that some of the user's issue might be there.

Have you actually tried installing CleanMem and had any issues?  If you had any issues then what specifically was wrong (or unexpected)?
