While using the Custom Clean feature more advanced PC users can take advantage of the Wild Character. It offers greater flexiblity and power.

The Wild Character, ˙, tells Active Privacy Guardian Washer "You can replace any character and as many characters in place of the ˙ character." Please see the examples below:

Example 1:
If you wanted to wash all folders that *start* with Adobe then you would enter C:\My Documents\Adobe˙

Example 2
If you wanted to wash all files that started with 2000 and ended in .mp3 then you would enter C:\My Documents\2000˙.mp3

Example 3:
Active Privacy Guardian is so powerful that you can even place the wild character anywhere within the full pathname such as C:\My Documents˙\Adobe˙ Home ˙4˙\my files˙
Now that is flexibilty! So what would that match? A lot! This is a match: C:\My Documents 2004\Adobe2 Home 14B\my files - back ups. Do you have a feel for it now?

So how do you enter the ˙ character within Custom Clean? It's quite simple. While in the Custom Cleaner just click the Insert Wild Character button!
