Mz Ultimate Cleaner is a light, fast, free tool that scans your hard disks for junk files, browser traces, temporary files, and other files that can accumulate in your system, slowing it down and maybe even compromising your security. Its proprietary algorithm scans quickly, and it cleans quickly, too. It's by Mz Tweaks, a one-man band known to some as Michael Zacharias.

Mz Ultimate Cleaner's simple interface is all business. The compact dialog displayed our system's two hard disks with their total size, free space, and format. The program uses the Mz Intelligent Scanning Method by default, though we could deselect it if we wanted to. It's supposed to be faster than the usual techniques, so we kept it. And this tool is fast. Our scan completed very quickly, displaying the results in a tree view that let us choose which items to keep and which to bin. We clicked Delete Selected, and Mz Ultimate Cleaner took out the trash. It has some nice options: we could change the language and theme, check for updates, add or remove file extensions, and choose whether to send files to the Recycle Bin or delete them permanently. The Traces button let us choose which items to clean; we deselected our default browser's passwords, Office History, and other files we didn't want junked. We could press a button labeled Clean Traces Now to immediately clean up selected files or close the options and run a scan.

Mz Ultimate Cleaner is a little light on the documentation, with no Help file, so we recommend using it with knowledge and care. But it doesn't take a weed-whacker to your registry or change Windows settings like more aggressive "cleaners" and "optimizers." Pretty much the worst thing you can do is delete your browser's saved passwords and maybe some useful cookies, which counts as a potential P.I.T.A. but hardly requires System Restore.

Great little piece of free software!

Pros
Quick and efficient at what it does
Cons
None that I can see. Perhaps further development other 'cleaner' tools for later, like a complete program removal tool?
Summary
Scanning and deleting is very unreliable.

Pros
Quick and small, 1MB.
Cons
You have to restart the program to get a fresh scan result. It said it deleted files, but upon the next scan they were still there. It doesn't allow you to find out what the files are, to figure out if it's safe to delete the files.
Summary
Not worth your time and effort. I started it up and had it scan a secondary hard drive only. I told it to delete the files and it said it did. I scanned again and the scan result was identical to the first one. I had it scan the primary and secondary drive, and the scan result was still identical. I restarted the program and scanned both drives, then it finally came up with a new scan result. But even then it hadn't deleted the files it originally said it did. I told it to delete the internet temporary files and some others I figured were safe to delete, and it got most but not all of the ones it had found. It also listed my user temp files, but not being able to see what they were, I refused to let it delete them. Every time I needed a fresh scan, I had to restart the program. Running on WinXP SP3. Like I said, not worth your time and effort.

Pros
Quick little cleaner, simple to use. I'm a fan of small programs like this one. Just follow instructions. Speeds up PC operations. Free and easy.
Cons
Don't overdo it, or it may bollix things up. I've had no difficulty, but with PC's I go by the axiom 'the less you mess with 'em, the better.' Works for me.
Summary
Good for beginners who do as they are told and advanced users who know what they're doing.
