1-abc.net Hard Drive Washer

Hard Drive Washer is an easy-to-use piece of software that can remove unwanted and unnecessary files from the hard disk in order to free up space and tidy up the system. It lets users customize settings and carries out cleaning jobs rapidly.

The setup procedure does not take a long time to finish. As far as the interface goes, Hard Drive Washer is classical and does not put too much emphasis on visual appeal, letting users immediately dive into the configuration step.

Hard Drive Washer offers support for TMP, LOG, GID, OLD, BAK, 1ST, PRV, NAV and other file formats. It can delete all files (with any extensions) from the temporary files folder, send items to the Recyle Bin instead of removing them permanently, as well as break down long file names in a file list. File exceptions can be made as well.

The tool does not put a strain on PC performance, since it runs on low CPU and RAM. We have not come across any issues in our tests, since it did not freeze, crash or pop up error dialogs. Cleaning jobs may take a while to finish, depending on the HDD size and selected options. Nevertheless, Hard Drive Washer gets the job done.
