"v- 2.1"
by: mweizor
Other Thoughts: Addition to my previous postings:
Once entries are found (after scan), one can left-click-highlight-hold and drag a contiguous bunch (blue highlight); a right-click or tool bar action can then be done to that batch.
Sometimes, highlighting this bundle is a tad quirky,
The Filters list should have a "select none" or "invert", since it is easier than unchecking them all or most --- and scanning with just one or a few checked is probably safer and definitly less confusing.
The Filters list should be alphabetized (where applicable)
"Skip Hidden" and " Skip System Files" should be checked, by default.
The GUI , in minimize, cuts off the bottom portion,
and, when maximized , the task bar field, unless in auto hide mode, covers a sliver of the interface bottom.

"v- 2.0"
by: mweizor
Other Thoughts: This is the same release as 6 months ago (apparently).
It does delete to recycling bin so that one has a last chance to reconsider or selectively restore ---that's good.
It's a bit slow and ponderous but nontheless thorough.
Has three File Type catagories: Junk, Graphic and Media and a list of Filters (all checked,by default) for each [be careful, just because it finds something doesn't mean it's necessarily waste].
Can add/remove filters (besides checking /unchecking them).
Probably be advisable to use/check the Skip Hidden and Skip System Files though this is no panacea or failsafe; and generally, not use the Find Zero Size Files.
It also has a right-click-on-entry feature with Open the file and Properties display for more info.
It is a Sweeper, that's for sure... just make sure you know what's in the pan. It's a 3 or 4.Was this review helpful? 14 out of 32 users found this review helpful.

"v- 2.0"
by: mweizor
Other Thoughts: The biggest disadvantage of this program compared to others of its ilk, is that one cannot INDIVIDUALLY exclude entries in its results display prior to deleting ( if I get , lets say, 30 entry results after a scan , and I do not want to delete , say, 3 of those entries, it appears I have to individually delete all that I do want to delete inorder to leave the 3 that i don't. So, there is no "yes/no" square to the left of the entries and there is no "highlight selected entry>right click>exclude". And, it does not remember your settings for your next session ( it reverts to default-- all boxes in filter/file extentions are checked). Beyond those, it is thorough, at least.Was this review helpful? 17 out of 37 users found this review helpful.

"All *.txt files listed"
by: essbebe
Other Thoughts: Lists all *.txt files for cleaning.
do not select *log.txt option. You
may delete many text files .
Otherwise OK.
Clean without the above option.
Then check only *log.txt.
Go throught the list carefully
and delete unwanted TXT files only.
