Find and remove junk and obsolete files

There are many kinds of 'temporary' files but what all have in common is that they steadily increase in number and thus slowly eat up your hard disk space. Some programs use temporary files to hold intermediate data but do not delete them after program shutdown (e.g. just take a look in your Windows\Temp directory where many such files end up).

Many setup programs are prime examples of this. Other programs keep producing lots of unwanted log files. Yet others automatically create backup files of edited documents. Internet browsers create a lot of cache files, 'cookie' files, history files, etc, etc.

The problem is that if you don't clean up such files periodically, your free disk space will slowly but steadily shrink and it will be more difficult to find the files that you do want because of all the junk littering it. If you are really unlucky, Windows may even crash because it hasn't got enough space for its virtual memory swap file.

This utility will help you automate the task of removing most such unwanted files. Using a very easy-to-use three-step process it will quickly scan your hard disk(s) for unwanted files and assist you in deleting them! It's as easy as that!

Clean directories and cache files

Some programs use temporary files to hold intermediate data but do not delete them after program shutdown (e.g. just take a look in your Windows\Temp directory where many such files end up). Many setup programs are prime examples of this. The problem is that if you don't clean up such files periodically, your free disk space will slowly but steadily shrink and it will be more difficult to find the files that you do want because of all the junk littering it.

Using the Clean directories and cache files option, temporary internet files and other file types can easily be removed from your hard drive.

Clean directories and cache files searches your hard drive for Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator 4.x cache files, Temporary files located on your "temp folder" and the Recent Documents Folder.

Frequently Asked Questions - System Cleaner

I do not find any way to search for duplicate files...
On the "Clean My Computer" page there is a box named "Advanced Search Options". Tick this box to show a 4th option (Find and remove duplicate files).
I'm not sure which duplicate files to delete...
There's a simple rule you can follow -- if you don't know whether to delete a file, then don't.

When you scan one or more drives for duplicate files, it lists all the duplicate files found on the selected drive(s). This does not necessarily means you can delete all of them, since sometimes it is normal to have duplicate files (for example the Windows Sysbckup Directory). It's up to you to decide which ones are needed and which ones can be deleted/moved.

When you can delete duplicate files is when they are exactly the same size, have exactly the same name and exactly the same date. Even then, don't delete the duplicate at first. Backup it using the build in option of System Cleaner instead. If your system runs fine for a few days, then delete it.
What are duplicate files?
Duplicate Files as the name suggest are files with same name, same size, same time. They are identical in all aspects but are scattered all round the system in different folders.
How hard is it to get System Cleaner setup and working?
Not hard at all. Simply download the System Cleaner installation file from our website, double-click the file you downloaded to start the installation and follow the simple installation steps.
