Hi @samuvuo

I have mozilla firefox set to ''firefox will : never remember history and for just in case i click on clear all current history daily.

I donā€™t know what the connection is, but nice to know.

As for a schedule job, you can make it a weekly cron job if you want. If I wanted it scheduled I would have it in the cron.monthly, but you can put it in cron.weekly if you want. Thereā€™s just not that much to clean.

And last, as stated above. Cleaning the cache (autoclean) is not very important to us with large hard drives.

Thanks for the help @anon42388993

The only concern to make the cron.monthly work with a schedule is if the day it is set to make the clean i dont use my PC ā€¦i guess is better to do it manually ?

And to finish here,how can i change my log in password at the beginning of the session with Ubuntu ??? i mean the first thing we need to do to get into the system ?

Thanks :smiley:

Doing it manually works for me, but if you want:

Anacron is installed by default (ubuntu-mate-desktop pulls it in) and handles the daily, weekly and monthly cron jobs.

So to answer @Sexybaldguy 's question: the cron tasks (ie cron.monthly) will be run the next time you log in, if you donā€™t use the PC ā€œon the scheduled dayā€.

You all will probably laugh, but I still use the Janitor function the comes with Ubuntu Tweak. I donā€™t know what I am doing wrong, but the few times I tried BleachBit (non administrative mode) my system failed to reboot. I have never had an issue with Janitor.
