I don’t think I’ve used any cleaner product since the Windows XP days. I don’t view it as necessary anymore.
One of the other programs to see file size on disk recommended on this thread should be enough.
I would highly recommend O&O ShutUp10++ to reduce built in spying in Windows. It’s good at explaining what each option you’re doing is. The only thing I would caution on is changing the Edge browser policies with O&O. That will lock it down into enterprise mode and you won’t be able to change certain settings through the UI anymore.
I remember CCleaner being good. But that was a long time ago. Looking at the site now, I feel like I wandered into a Tel Sell advertisement.
I was gonna ask you what made CCleaner bad before I took a look at the sites. But CCleaner literally sells you privacy as a pro feature, whereas BleachBit puts privacy in the second sentence as a core aspect of the tool.
Is wiztree much better than BCU and Bleachbit? Like, removing al the vestiges of an uninstalled program. I feel like BCU is half-assing it. Earlier I used to use Revo Uninstaller which is I think much better than BCU.
Revo has nice UI. All the options are present in aesthetically and it’s easy to use. But it has a free and a paid version. Which led me to install BCU. But I don’t think BCU is good at cleaning up vestigial files after uninstalling a program. There’s always some files left unremoved which have to be deleted manually after a program is uninstalled. I didn’t have this issue with Revo.
