Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Not many freeware system cleaning utilities combine functionality, efficiency, and good design as well as this toolset. Sweepi's fluid interface changes to meet the goals of each tool. However, most are similar enough to not confuse users. The only interface glitch was an occasional unexpected German word. For novice users, the program offers an optional effective wizard.
Sweepi's prime file removal function is well designed and very flexible. The dozens of file areas the program checks can be easily tested individually, in select groups, or all at once. Selecting an area to clean displays a helpful description; while searching and cleaning takes only a couple of clicks. Advanced users will like the simple one-click QuickClean function. In addition to cleaning files off your system, the ShortCutter function makes short work of finding and deleting invalid shortcuts.
Sweepi's BootManager is an improvement over the Windows Startup Manager with descriptions for each item in addition to the normal file paths and Registry settings. Adding this freeware to your system is an easy decision to make for every user looking for a system cleaning tool suite.

Version: Sweepi 5.4
Pros: This cleaner has two cleaning modes, classic mode and clean up wizard mode. It can clean everything at one time just click quick clean. Or you can select different areas to clean, by checking the boxes you want to clean and using search now.
It can clean typed URLs, auto complete forms, run history, recent searches, cookies, temporary internet files, log files, temp files, recent documents, thumbnails, memory dumps, browser history, index .dat files, microsoft office, windows media player, and adobe flash player.
And it has extra tools to delete data securely, remove invalid shortcuts, optimize ram, and more. Has settings options to change language, mode selection, donation popup window, deletion type, registry backup, and exceptions.

Version: Sweepi 5.4
"Sweepers, Man Your Brooms - Sweepi works"
Pros: I downloaded to eliminate true junk and previously deleted files from some space conscious hard drives of less than 6 GB in computers donated to a Veterans Home.
Cons: As of now, I am not aware of a major dislike with this program. At least, I haven't tripped over one yet.

Version: Sweepi 5.4
"I don't know what I did wrong"
Cons: After I ran it, I thought it was done. Next system boot- Sweepi is running in the "background" and taking up nearly 100% cpu usage. I open sweepi up and for some reason, everything is in German. Good thing you can uninstall it without anything going wrong.
