Moving to the Applications section it is possible to perform a similar cleanup operation on some of the applications you have installed. In the first section you can analyse the contents of the trash, temporary folder, recent documents, recent applications and recent servers.Īn information panel provides you with details of just how much space the selected objects are occupying on your hard drive and all it takes to reclaim this space is to click the Clean button.
As things stand, the somewhat sparse interface is divided into two sections: Mac OS X and Applications. CCleaner is a popular cleanup tool that has been available for Windows for some time, but Piriform has now released a beta version for Mac users.Īs this is only a beta, expectations should not be set too high, and at this early stage, the options available in the application are a little limited. Deleting files and erasing cookies is no longer something that most computer users perform as a result of running out of hard drive space any more - these days the reason for deleting anything is likely to be a matter of maintaining privacy.
