CleanUp! - quick and easy way to delete temporary files from your system

CleanUp! is a powerful and easy-to-use application that removes temporary files created while surfing the web, empties the Recycle Bin, deletes files from your temporary folders and more.

CleanUp! frees disk space and reduces the "clutter" on your computer helping it to run more efficiently. It also can be used as a way to protect your privacy on the Internet. You can even instruct CleanUp! to securely delete files making it impossible to retrieve their contents using lower-level disk tools - just another way of protecting your privacy.

Features and benefits                                                                                      

1. Covers your tracks on the Internet. CleanUp! deletes traces of you Internet activity that get stored on your hard disk. These things include:

• Browser cache
• Browser History
• Cookies
• Bookmarks and Favorites. Deletion of these is optional and disabled by default.

2. Supports all popular browsers. 

3. Supports all popular newsreaders.  CleanUp! optionally empties the newsgroup caches for each of these and can, also optionally, remove all subscriptions to newsgroups.

4. Removes Windows files tracking your use of the computer. This includes things such as:

• Removing "MRU lists" (storing a list of your Most Recently Used files) for various applications
• Emptying the Recent Documents folder
• Deleting entries from the Run and Find Computer dialogs
• Emptying Recycle Bins
• Emptying various temporary folders
• Removing unneeded registry entries
• Optionally resetting the high scores for Windows games;
• And more.

5. Supports other applications. Almost all Windows applications store information on your hard disk about your use of the program - even if this is as minor as an MRU list. CleanUp! includes support for a variety of commonly used Windows applications.

6. Runs on 32-bit Windows. Operation Systems covered: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT 4.0 Workstation, Windows NT 4.0 Server, Windows 2000 Professional, Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, Windows XP Home, and Windows XP Professional.

7. Secure file deletion. You can optionally choose to "Wipe Clean" files as they are deleted. This takes a little longer but instructs CleanUp! to overwrite the files several times before deleting them. This makes it almost impossible to recover those files from the hard disk using even the most advanced data recovery techniques, ensuring you the greatest degree of privacy.

8. Free. 

9. Fast. Remove hundreds, even thousands of files and free up many megabytes, and sometimes gigabytes of disk space all in a matter of minutes.

10. Simplicity. A clean, simple interface - designed for novices, with an Options dialog allowing some flexibility for more experienced users.

Note that if you are going to run CleanUp! 4.5.2 without first making a backup of your system, then it is strongly recommended that you first run it in the new demo mode and verify the files that would be deleted before you first run it for real.
