Cleanup Assistant

Think of your computer as the virtual room you spend days in. The better you keep it tidy, the easier it is to move around and find items. Using your computer on a daily basis eventually gets it filled with different junk files and browsing history that are not necessarily indispensable. Luckily, you can keep your computer clean with utilities like Cleanup Assistant so you don't risk losing important data from poor performance.

Intuitive interface and simple tools

The interface greets you with a sort of Office like design, with major areas structured in tabs, leaving room for options and info display in the center area. Different themes can be picked from the dashboard, but only a few are up for display. Thus, navigation is easy and nor do the tools themselves pose any problems.
One of the first items that's at hand right from the start is there to take care of the programs that automatically run at startup. Shown in a list, thorough details are displayed upon selection in a side panel. These can be removed from the list by unchecking and applying changes.

Clean junk files and generate graphs

Web browsing and even different offline utilities leave junk files in the form of history and others. The computer cleanup panel is equipped with a trash cleaner feature that targets these leftovers. It's possible to manually pick areas like Internet browsing, Windows, multimedia, office applications, graphics tools, games and more. It takes a little while to find them, as well as to get rid of them.
Some other tools of less importance and for miscellaneous tasks are also amongst the features. As such, you can find duplicate files in custom directories or drives, rename files based on different filters, search and replace or track down empty folders.
As a result, you can pay a visit to the charts tab to see if you made any progress or significant changes. It might take a while to retrieve results, with a 3D animated graph displayed in the end, with real time updating info. It can also be exported under different formats for keeping history of cleaning sessions.

In conclusion

Based on different tests, we were left with the impression that, although packed with quite a lot of helpful cleaning tools, Cleanup Assistant doesn't feel natural. Accommodation is easy thanks to the intuitive interface, but there's no real flexibility, with no presets for quick processes or more variety in settings.
