Publisher's Description
From Addpcs:
Temp File Cleaner was designed to give users the power and flexibility needed to effectively manage temporary files on their machine. It is built on a robust engine that allows for complex cleansing scenarios and rules to be created with ease. Brace yourself for your computer to feel gigabytes lighter after you unleash the TFC temporary file destroying ninjas. More than one drive? No problem, TFC will allow you to clean any or all of your drives. The cleaning engine scans all accessible user accounts, deleting temporary Internet files, cookies, browser history, recent files list, Windows temp folders, Windows update uninstall files, empties the Recycle Bin, and more. You can customize your desired cleaning through the selectable options within the application. The process is not aborted by locked files, and can reset permissions if necessary. For convenience, the application is distributed as a Windows installer, and can be easily uninstalled at any time from Add/Remove program. Alternatively, a portable version is available on our website, which does not require an installation, and can be run directly from a USB flash drive (or anywhere). A detailed help page describes all of the paths being cleaned, and how to configure the various options. The Temp File Cleaner can easily be incorporated into scripts by using the command line arguments as documented. To achieve the best results, close all other running applications before running the Temp File Cleaner. For the most thorough cleaning, run as an Administrator account that has the permissions necessary to clean all of the locations on the disk. This software is available free of charge for personal use. Donations are welcomed, and are necessary for me to cover server costs.
What's new in this version: Version 4.2.2:
- Fixed a problem with command line argument doing an analyze instead of a clean

"I can't believe cnet allows this on its site!"
Version: Temp File Cleaner 4.2.1
Pros
Why make me write pros when there are none!
Cons
Virus detection - multiple problems!

"Best TFC version yet"
Version: Temp File Cleaner 4.1.1
Pros
They've added new cleaners and improved the user interface with some color indicators. They are now offering a paid Pro version, that adds even more functionality. This gives me the ability to scan my mapped network drives, and clean all of the computers in my house with a single click! This is well worth the $1 investment. Also, the pro version installer is delivered without any ads whatsoever.
Cons
Can't find any
Summary
You should really take a look at the Pro version. Just click the Buy Now link on the left to be redirected to their website.

"Beware of this download"
Version: Temp File Cleaner 4.1.1
Pros
No Pros THAT I CAN SEE.
Cons
Beware of downloading this software. The software also loads malware that changes your search engine to Incredibar search engine that cannot be removed no matter what you do. This is hijacking your internet searches without your concent. Look up blogs on this malware and be careful. No matter what you do, the change to all your internet programs will happen weather you agree or not.
Summary
Worst Malware I have seen being offered by respected site like CNET

"Sped up my surfing with one pass."
Version: Temp File Cleaner 4.0
Pros
Easy to down load. Takes very little space.
Cons
None. Stupid to require 10 characters when I have no cons! Don't you read these questions prior to putting them online?

"Be extremely wary: Remember, this is freeware."
Version: Temp File Cleaner 4.0
Pros
Easy to download. That's all.
Cons
My Avast! Pro Anti-Virus/Spyware warned me not to open this on my computer but to open in "Sandbox" first. This would allow the program to run without affecting my computer.
Summary
I did not open but deleted the program immediately. Before executing the file notice the red X on the dialog box stating no valid digital signature? That's a hint that something is not right. It may work for you, you may like it, but I value my computer and it's contents to take a risk on a freeware program of dubious benefit.
