Windows applications create lots of files-small and large-that end up
scattered throughout the hard disk. When it's time to uninstall Windows
applications, these files need to be removed to free-up hard disk space.
Quarterdeck CleanSweepª finds Windows users more hard disk space by
removing unwanted or unneeded applications and files.
Other utilities now on the market offer to do some of what
CleanSweep does, but they just donÕt do their job as thoroughly.
But CleanSweep is more than an uninstaller because it seeks out, cleans
up and clears out duplicate, obsolete or unused filesÑeven Windows system
files.
And CleanSweep is designed to operate with maximum safety, allowing
confirmation of deletions and offering a backup feature, making it easy to
restore deleted files.
CleanSweep works with all versions of Windows.
Benefits include:
- Finds more files than other uninstaller applications-resulting in
more recovered disk space
- Not only uninstalls Windows applications but also finds space-wasting
obsolete, duplicate and unused files, including Windows system files
- Works with all current MS Windows versions, including Windows for
Workgroups
- Extensive safety features include file analysis, confirmation of
files to be deleted, Helper technology for better file
identification, SuperLink technology for more thorough uninstalls,
trial runs and back-ups to make the process fail-safe
