HDCleaner

HDCleaner includes a wide variety of maintenance tools, for cleaning up a computer's hard drive, its Registry, managing startup items and much more. If you feel that your operating system is running slower than usual, temporary files, errors in the Registry or a fragmented drive are almost certainly the cause. The software can help you remedy these problems without too much effort.

The software is offered free of charge and it works on all popular Windows platforms. Its setup file can be downloaded in under a minute and the installation process is just as fast. There are no special requirements you have to meet and you don't need powerful hardware.

There is a large number of tools to be found on HDCleaner's user interface, but they are neatly categorized on tabs and sub-tabs. The software features a dashboard, on which you can find a series of general details about your system, including your used security measures and their current state, performed cleanup tasks, device drivers and much more.

Cleanup tools and miscellaneous utilities can be found on separate tabs. The Cleaning tab is where you can scan for leftovers left behind by your browsers, applications and the operating system itself and remove them. Additionally, you can clean up the Registry shred files and locate unnecessary files on one or more partitions so you can delete them.

Besides its cleanup features, the software offers a series of basic utilities for uninstalling programs, managing autorun programs or finding duplicate files. You can also find some more advanced utilities, like a duplicate file finder, a disk space analyzer or a broken shortcut fixer.

The software can provide you with all the information you need about your system and its hardware. You can find a huge amount of information about each individual hardware component and software application. You can also create system restore points, search for specific items in the Registry and defragment it. What's more, HDCleaner can monitor your system and perform live tuneups, empty and optimize the memory automatically and perform other tasks, all on its own.
