Disk Cleaner 1.8.1795

I have to say that there is much to like about the Robert Moerland-developed application Disk Cleaner. From downloading, to installing and then using this application, there is much to like about it.

What’s to like about the download? Well, the Disk Cleaner download weighs in at 884KB, which is incredibly lightweight. At such a lightweight download size, it will take very little time to get Disk Cleaner off the web and onto your computer. Personally, I like it very much when I don’t have to wait a long time for a download to complete; and a less than 1MB download will complete in a blink, even if you are on a less than spectacular internet connection.

What’s to like about installing Disk Cleaner on your computer? There are several things you are going to like. First up, you will like that installing Disk Cleaner is a straightforward process that goes along smoothly rapidly and quickly. All you have to do is launch the executable you downloaded and follow the instructions presented by the setup wizard; you will be done before you know it.

You will also like that you don’t have to pay special attention during the installation process. Some applications come bundled with toolbars and other things you may not want; so you have to pay attention and not install these as well. During the installation process of Disk Cleaner you are not presented with any toolbars or additional bundled apps.

Last but not least, you will like that you can install Disk Cleaner on several versions of the Microsoft-developed Windows operating system, including the old but popular Windows XP, the much avoided Windows Vista, and the latest and greatest, Windows 7.

What’s to like about using Disk Cleaner? Just like with the installation process, there are several things you are going to like about using Disk Cleaner. First up, you will like that you can use the application for as long as you want and not part with your hard earned money for doing so. Disk Cleaner is a free open source application.

Second up, you will like that Disk Cleaner is incredibly easy to use. When you launch Disk Cleaner, it automatically scans your system and presents you with a list of items you could remove. If you didn’t figure it out from the application’s name, that is what Disk Cleaner does – it removes files that are needlessly taking up space on your computer, like your browser’s cache, cookies, temp files, and so on. Getting back to using Disk Cleaner, all you have to do is select the items you would like to clean, press the clean button, and wait for Disk Cleaner to do its job (it will complete in very little time).

Disk Cleaner is a free, very easy to use Windows utility that surpasses the functionality of Windows' built-in Disk Cleanup tool. It will get rid of junk files and will do so at a rapid pace.
