HDCleaner
Price: $
For all heavy users who use their laptops and PCs for hours daily, the HDCleaner is a must-use application as it provides all the necessary options that they don't have time to perform themselves.
As the name suggests, the application can clean up all the junk that is not to be used anymore. Not only that, HDCleaner brings along tons of features to help you in cleaning and maintaining your computer. From cleaning to shredding, system maintenance and drive analysis to data recovery, the HDCleaner is an all-in-one software for your daily needs.
One of the most popularly used features of the HDCleaner is the cleaning feature. It has three different types of cleaning that you can use. There's a simple cleanup that does the job for you on its own. Then there's the default cleanup which lets you choose between what to keep or delete, and then there's also the advanced cleanup which lets the expert users choose between every option.
Besides cleaning, HDCleaner also excels in shredding. Shredding includes essential features such as permanently deleting files, wiping free space, overwriting all data on a certain partition to keep the hard drive from being recovered and secure erase of drives. The overwriting feature is particularly helpful if you are going to dispose of the hard disk since it eliminates the possibility of any data recovery.
All other features that should be present in optimal cleaning software are also present, such as programs uninstaller, optimization of programs, system recovery, system information, disk tools, and advanced features.
All in all, the HDCleaner is a fantastic tool for every computer user. The only negative point found in the entire application was that sometimes it is slow to load and change between tabs. Besides that, it works perfectly and speeds up the computer by freeing resources and space for your use.
