System and Disk Cleaner

Constantly installing and uninstalling programs or visiting websites can lead to the accumulation of redundant files which take up too much space.As a result, your system may decrease in performance.

Common disk utilities like uninstallers and system defrag tools can sometimes overlook such files, but other applications such as System and Disk Cleaner don't. This tool helps create a smoother experience with your PC by targeting and deleting junk files.

The application informs you of the importance of regular system clean-up from the start. Following this step, you can select which directories to scan. By default, all junk files supported by System and Disk Cleaner are selected for removal, such as temporary files (.temp, .tmp).

In case you don't want to delete everything (like browser cache), you can deselect the types of files you want to keep. However, this means figuring out the meaning of each file extension you're not familiar with because the application does not have categories to better understand each format. Worth mentioning is that any file types not available in the list can be added (filename and description).

Concerning search options, you may customize the targeting criteria like the date of creation, file attributes (read-only, hidden, system, empty), and shortcuts not pointing to a valid target.

If you want to protect important files and prevent the tool from deleting them, you can create a list of exception folders. Scanning duration varies depending on the amount of system clutter found and, at the end of the scanning process, you can view a report containing all the files found.

In case you want to keep any files from the scan list, you can simply deselect them. The system cleaner also comes with another handy feature, a log of all scanning processes that have occurred which is saved in an easy-to-read text window.

Keeping your system clean and running as fast as possible is important nowadays and, in order to do this, you have to make sure everything is in check, even the files on your PC. Given all of the above, System and Disk Cleaner serves that purpose well.
