VacuBot

VacuBot is a simplistic and practical utility that gives you the possibility to decluter the operating system and protect your privacy by removing Internet Explorer and Windows-related items that aren't essential for the computer to work properly.

It contains a set of approachable options that can be tackled with ease by all sorts of users, even the ones less skilled with such apps.

Setting it up is a speedy job that shouldn't impose any difficulties, as there are no unfamiliar settings, mandatory software products or third-party offers involved.

When it comes to the interface, VacuBot opts for a single panel with a plain design and neatly structured layout. It enables you to select the areas you want to clean while excluding the rest.

When it comes to the Internet Explorer, the application can be instructed to empty cache, cookies, typed URLs, autocomplete passwords, IntelliForms, and favorites. As far as Windows-related objects are concerned, you can get rid of RAS autodial contents, temporary files, Recycle Bin items, Run history, recent documents, last user login data, Find Files and Computers history, network, Telnet and URL history, along with prefetch data.

All modifications can be applied with the click of a button. As informed by the developer, data cannot be recovered once it's deleted. Aside from the fact that you can temporarily disable VacuBot instead of exiting it, there are no other notable options available.

It didn't hog system resources in our tests, as it needed a low amount of CPU and RAM to work properly. Unfortunately, we couldn't get it up and running on newer Windows models in our tests, although we even tried launching it in compatibility mode for older editions. This is probably because VacuBot hasn't been updated for such a long time.
