Command Line Args To Optimize Don't Work #185

@IceMetalPunk

Description

@IceMetalPunk

Current Behavior

In trying to run an optimization from the command line using the following command, Win Memory Cleaner just opens normally into the system tray, does not run any optimizations, and does not automatically close.

Command (from an elevated Admin command prompt):
WinMemoryCleaner.exe /ModifiedFileCache /CombinedPageList /ModifiedPageList /RegistryCache /StandbyList /SystemFileCache /WorkingSet

Expected Behavior

According to the Readme, Win Memory Cleaner should open, run the optimizations indicated by the command line args, then close.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open an elevated Admin command prompt.
  2. cd into the location of the executable.
  3. Run WinMemoryCleaner.exe /ModifiedFileCache /CombinedPageList /ModifiedPageList /RegistryCache /StandbyList /SystemFileCache /WorkingSet
  4. Check the system tray to confirm it's just opened normally.

App Version

3.0.8

Windows Version

Windows 11

Additional Context

This is the only Win Memory Cleaner log in the Windows Event Viewer after running that command, though I don't think it's relevant:

winmemcleaner.log
