For all the 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.

Features overview

As the name suggests, the application can clean up all the junk that is not being used anymore. Not only that, HDCleaner brings along tons of features to help you in cleaning and maintaining your computer. From cleaning, shredding, and system maintenance to drive analysis and data recovery, the HDCleaner is an all-in-one software for your daily needs.

Cleaning modes

One of the most popularly used features of the HDCleaner is the cleaning feature. It has three different types of cleaning options 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 select specific items to delete.

Shredding and security

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 prevent the data from being recovered, and secure erasure of entire 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.

Additional tools

All other features that should be present in optimal cleaning software are also present, such as a program uninstaller, optimization of programs, system recovery, system information, disk tools, and advanced features.

Verdict

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 system resources and disk space for your use.
