How to find hidden "permanent files"?
theedman22- Pros
- Looks as good as Ccleaner
- Cons
- Doesn't look like it will get rid of hidden files. Files that stay on after cleaning up internet files
- Summary
- I need something to help me find and get rid of permanent hidden files. It looks like a good general product, but what about files I can't seem to find that are wasting room in my computer. Not cache files or cookie files, but things I see come up when I run Spybot.
Simple and effective!
megadupek- Pros
- The tool is simple and effective. It does what it's supposed to do. It cleans your hard drive from unnecessary files.
- Cons
- The program could do a little bit more automatic calculations i.e. how much hard drive space do i get back after deleting the files etc.
- Summary
no confusion, what a relief!
blondesillydilly- Pros
- I tried out other sites, and they was the only one that I could actually use and understand. It does everything I needed or wanted to do.
- Cons
- Summary
20 GB FREED !!!!
mekaeel- Pros
- Very simple and small program. <p>Very easy interface. <p>I was going crazy seeing my hard-drive getting full and I couldn't know from what. Seriously I checked almost every single folder I have in my computer and I still couldn't see where or what files are taking all this space. <p> <p>Finally this program detected hidden "Recent Files" that are stored in the hard disk. I watch a lot of animations and movies on my computer, all of the episodes were backed-up without me knowing it. Thanks to this program I deleted them within a push of a button!
- Cons
- none!
- Summary
About 2 GB freed!
WingedPaladin- Pros
- This little program freed almost 2 GB of temp files. Yay! Better than me having to go through and search for these files.
- Cons
- GenDiskCleaner seemed to freeze first time I tried deleting unnecessary files. I gave it another chance, and it performed well. :)
- Summary
Great for getting rid of useless gigs
TheCheese33- Pros
- Easy to use <p>Can free up gigs at a time (The first time I used it, I freed up 5 gigs! :) ) <p>FREE FREE FREE!
- Cons
- Would like for it to scan more of your hard drive, to see if there's anything else I need to get rid of. I have some secret files hidden in my desktop somewhere, and I want them out.
- Summary
that will do very nicely
zippy05- Pros
- quick download in zip file, simplistic interface, but hey, who cares when it's freeware. Did a splendid job at the first attempt, and gave me 300 meg back, must recommend.
- Cons
- Summary
Best Program For The Money
hadi96- Pros
- Cleans and removes everything in sight, the interface is fairly simple but is very functional. I love it and use it every day.
- Cons
- None
- Summary
Excellent Program
clashcityrocka- Pros
- Easy to use, small file size, quick download time, quick installation time, and once again, easy interface.
- Cons
- The interface is a wee bit simple and didn't access my Recycle Bin, but that could just be a problem on my machine. Other than that, it works excellently.
- Summary
AMAZING!
davidwr99- Pros
- I was very impressed with this product. it truly was a very small file and it did it's job very well, also it is true freeware. there was no trial period or registration required. I really like it.
- Cons
- The interface leaves a little to be desired, but it is easy to understand. but who can complain about a interface on good operating freeware, and also with a better interface the file would probaly be larger.
