❀️ FluentCleaner is donation-supported.
Im building FluentCleaner as a donation-supported project. Learning WinUI 3 and turning this into a real app was definitely not painless, but it has been a lot of fun too.
If you like the project and want to support future releases, donations really help keep it going

Features

  • Winapp2.ini support out of the box, ~3,700 entries, community-maintained, always fresh
  • Blazing fast parse + scan pipeline
  • Custom databases supported; drop in any winapp2-compatible .ini and it just works
  • Modern WinUI 3 interface that doesn't look like it was designed in 2009
  • Category-based cleaning so you actually know what you're deleting
  • Lightweight, no installer, just runs
  • No Avast. No toolbar. No "recommended partner offer". No telemetry. Not even a little bit. Ive checked πŸ˜„
  • Hardened Winapp2.ini entry handling (better compatibility and edge-case handling) It is recommended to update the database from time to time (FluentCleaner > Settings > Database)
  • Control the full cleaner via CLI
  • Proper app icon, because details matter. Thanks to @https://github.com/naderi
  • Registry Cleaner, Nope. Registry cleaners are snake oil. that tab exists to make a point, not clean anything. something actually useful will go there eventually
Optional: download this Extensions.zip asset for additional tools.  
Not required for the cleaner and completely independent.
