CM DiskCleaner

CM DiskCleaner is a tool that can help you improve the performance of your computer by locating and cleaning junk files, invalid registry entries, and more.
The interface of the program is very plain. CM DiskCleaner could definitely use some improvements, from this point of view.
So, you can use "Disk Cleaner" to scan your computer for junk files, "Application Cleaner" to find old application entries which haven't been removed by uninstallers, as well as "Registry Cleaner" to fix Windows registry problems.
In addition, you can optimize the computer's RAM, use a shredder to delete files beyond recovery, as well as "OneClick CleanUp".
So, when it comes to the "Disk Cleaner", you can initiate the scanning process by simply clicking a button, after which you can view the total number of junk files, broken shortcuts, zero-byte files and malware.
The "Application Cleaner" goes through application, folder, registry, startup, start menu and leftover entries. But you can also use a search function to locate a specific item.
In the "Options" menu, you can select file filters, include specific drives, use a particular method, exclude directories, and more. Plus, you can run or remove plugins, schedule a task and use a backup and restore system.
Furthermore, you can set "Registry Cleaner" to browse for issues in the help file, ActiveX-COM, clear user assist, font file, application path, file extension and obsolete registry keys sections. Plus, you can use advanced scanning to search for uninstalled application names.
"File Eraser" also supports the "drag and drop" method and you can set it to force delete locked files, while "OneClick CleanUp" goes through cookies, broken shortcuts, the recent and temporary folder, as well as temporary Internet, downloaded program and offline files.
The software takes a while to complete a scanning task, while using up a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, and includes a well-drawn help file.
However, several errors consecutively popped up during our tests, when we tried to optimize RAM (we were forced to terminate the application from Task Manager). Also, CM DiskCleaner froze once, during a scanning of the registry.
All in all, CM DiskCleaner is a pretty good tool for computer maintenance. But it definitely needs to fix its stability issues and to improve its interface.
