Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This simple utility deletes unwanted files created in Windows, but a help file should have been included. Temp File Cleaner doesn't require installation, but you will need Java Runtime Environment 1.6 installed on your system. The program's interface is straightforward. Simple checkbox ticks in the program's settings allow you to select the areas to clean. In addition to Windows temp files, this software deletes temporary Internet files, cookies, the recycle bin, history, and others. The program quickly freed 500MB of disk space in just a few minutes during tests and it offers force deletion. Temp File Cleaner also displays a success or error notice after file deletion so you can easily trace files that weren't removed. While the program is relatively easy to follow, a help guide to outline deletion areas like prefetch, system restore data, and Windows update uninstallers needs to be included. Temp File Cleaner features an excessive search option to look in subfolders, but it isn't clear what methods it's using. With its speedy operation and cheap price, this application is suitable for intermediate to advanced users for efficient file cleaning.Publisher's description

Version: Temp File Cleaner 3.0.4
"Very handy, tiny, simple tool."
Pros: Easy, quick clean up. Why wait around for a spyware/malware/adware/a-v program to tell you there are cookies to remove.
Cons: none I can see.
Summary: Only used straight-forward 'as-is' so far, lack of help file is a hinderance, but it cleans up an average over 50mb of junk after each session. Wiped about 200mb + of rubbish on first use. Ad-Aware's probably going in the bin. This makes that cookie... read more >>
