bleachbit -c --preset


But I want to use bleachbit to clean my other mounted drives like /media/device1 and specific folders /home/eka/dir/dir1. How can I do this in bleachbit?

          As of BleachBit 2.0, deep scan defaults to the home user directory. There is not a way in the GUI to change it, but I think this will work




          1. Copy the deepscan.xml that came with BleachBit to ~/.config/bleachbit/cleaners

          2. Change id="deepscan" to id="mydeepscan"

          3. Add the attribute path="/media/device1" to each <action> element


          Then a new DeepScan option will show up, and you can select it.



          You may also want to change the <label> elements too.

          • it didn't worked. I went and open deepscan.xml in ~/.config/bleachbit/cleaners then changed cleaner id="mydeepscan" then added the path attribute to every action element <action path="/media/device1" command="delete" search="deep" regex=".[Bb][Aa][Kk]$" cache="false"/>.

          Is it possible to collect Nectar points via Trainline?

          Image
          2 Since I am not eligible for any Railcard, the only available discount/bonus scheme is Nectar Card for me. GWR, SWR, LNER and Virgin Trains allow to collect Nectar points and I have already linked a card to my GWR account. A friend suggested me to use Trainline App, because it can search for bus tickets either. I had a look at the application, but could not see any option for Nectar. Is there a way to collect Nectar points when I buy tickets via Trainline? uk trains loyalty-programs trainline share | improve this question asked Dec 2 '18 at 15:50 ahmedus 3,224 5 19 49
