How to use Intelligent Scan in CCleaner:

- To start the Intelligent Scan, click the right mouse button on an item in the Cookies to Delete or Cookies on Computer list and choose Intelligent Scan from the menu.
- This makes a modal or dialog box appear (labeled Intelligent Cookie Scan), and it asks you if you want to keep your login data for websites. Select No to cancel the operation. Selecting Yes (Recommended) adds all detected cookies from the Cookies to Delete or Cookies on Computer list to the Cookies to Keep list. This displays on the right-hand side of the CCleaner app window.
