Developer’s Description

By NorthGlide
Clean up your system's memory.
Cleanup is an add-on product to Uninstall Manager When you launch (open) applications, from the built-in memory or the Expansion Card, they save data onto your device. This data is used by the application when active, and normally, will be deleted when you delete the application itself. Each and every application on your device has to have a unique Creator ID. Applications, in general, use this Creator ID to save their data. When you choose to delete an application, the system finds and removes items that share the same Creator ID with this application. However, some applications, intentionally or by a programming error, save items under a different Creator ID than their own; these items will remain on your device, occupying your precious handheld memory for good. Leftover files and preferences survive hard-resets; the HotSync Manager restores them one by one to your device. Cleanup will help you get rid of them once and for all.
