Keep Windows running clean

Careful tools that show you what they'll do before they do it - and back up first.

Routine Windows upkeep in one simple window.

  • Clears browser cache for Chrome, Edge, and Brave - bookmarks and passwords untouched
  • Optimizes drives the right way - defrag for hard drives, TRIM for SSDs
  • Secure erase for the files you pick
  • Shows how much space you'll get back before cleaning

PC cleanup · Windows

Registry Cleaner

Clears out the broken leftovers removed programs leave behind.

  • Finds dead startup entries, old uninstall listings, and links to deleted files
  • Backs up before every fix - one click puts it all back
