SystemCleaner packs the cleaning, optimization, and privacy tools that used to require three separate apps — into one focused, lightweight binary.
One click identifies junk files, broken registry entries, and reclaimable cache across every drive — typically 5–20 GB on a year-old machine.
14 categoriesWipes browser trackers, telemetry pings, recently-used file lists, and clipboard history. Local-only — your data never leaves the machine.
All major browsersGoes beyond a startup list — analyzes service dependencies and scheduled tasks to recover an average of 23 seconds at boot.
Avg. 23s savedVisual treemap shows exactly what's eating your SSD. Drill down to the folder hogging 40 GB without rummaging through Explorer.
InteractiveAn optional background service that prevents junk from accumulating — instead of forcing you to remember to scan weekly.
Pro featureEvery operation is reversible. SystemCleaner takes a snapshot before each clean — undo any action for up to 30 days, no questions asked.
Built-in undoSystemCleaner is designed for people who want a faster PC — not a new hobby learning Registry semantics.
The first pass is purely diagnostic. It inventories junk files, browser data, registry entries, startup items, and disk usage — all without modifying a single byte.
Every finding is grouped by category with a plain-English explanation of what it is and why it's safe to remove. Toggle anything off you'd rather keep.
SystemCleaner takes a snapshot, then cleans. If anything feels off, one click restores everything — no recovery disks, no command line, no panic.
CCleaner pioneered this category — and earned its reputation. But the product hasn't fundamentally changed since 2014, and the pricing model has only gotten more aggressive.

"Recovered 18 GB on my work laptop in three minutes. The disk analyzer alone is worth more than the Pro license."
"I switched from CCleaner the day my subscription auto-renewed at $39 without warning. SystemCleaner does more for $15 once."
"Boot time on my four-year-old desktop went from 47 seconds to 22. No new SSD, no reinstall. Just SystemCleaner."
Yes. SystemCleaner uses Microsoft's recommended cleanup APIs, treats the registry conservatively, and takes a system snapshot before any destructive action. Every clean is reversible for 30 days through the built-in undo panel.
Storage Sense handles a narrow slice — temporary files and the Recycle Bin. SystemCleaner covers 14 categories including browser data across all installed browsers, application caches, leftover installer payloads, registry orphans, scheduled-task bloat, and visual disk analysis. Storage Sense is a feature; SystemCleaner is a product.
By default, no. SystemCleaner runs entirely locally — nothing about your files, your browsing, or your machine ever leaves your PC. There's an opt-in crash-reporting toggle that sends anonymized stack traces if SystemCleaner itself crashes, and that is the only network traffic the app generates.
Email us within 30 days of purchase. No questionnaire, no win-back call, no "are you sure?" — refund processed within two business days, license key revoked, done.
For as long as SystemCleaner exists as a product, yes. Your license unlocks every future version we ship. If we ever launch a major sequel that requires a separate purchase, your lifetime license to the current product remains valid indefinitely.
SystemCleaner targets Windows 10 (build 19041+) and Windows 11. We don't support Windows 7 or 8 because Microsoft no longer ships security updates for them — running a system cleaner on an unpatched OS would do more harm than good.
