Is it possible to run File Streams Cleaner without opening the R-Wipe & Clean itself?

I think you can create a shortcut for the RwcSecure.exe file and specify the following target in the shortcut's Properties panel:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\R-Wipe & Clean\RwcSecure.exe" /adscleaner

This is for 64-bit windows, for 32-bit:

"C:\Program Files\R-Wipe & Clean\RwcSecure.exe" /adscleaner

It really works.
Thank you.

Maybe you also know how to launch the Smart tool when R-Wipe & Clean is not running?

If you mean R-Wipe & Clean Smart, then:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\R-Wipe & Clean\RwcSecure.exe" /runrwcsmart (64-bit Windows)

"C:\Program Files\R-Wipe & Clean\RwcSecure.exe" /runrwcsmart (32-bit Windows)

Here it's easy to find out:
  • run R-Wipe & Clean
  • open the Tools toolbar and run R-Wipe & Clean Smart from there
  • close R-Wipe & Clean
  • open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc)
  • look at the contents of the Command line column for the RwcSecure.exe process
By default, the Command line column is hidden in the Task Manager.

Then you need to right-click the header of any column, click Select columns and turn on the Command line column display.

OK.
I see it's indeed simple.
Thank you.
