How does the app work?
It all starts with a scan of the PC. The goal of which is to find segments that need cleaning or optimization. As soon as the application starts working, you will be able to track the progress of the task as a percentage, but the application does not yet offer a countdown. At any time, you can quickly end the processes and view the report. Likewise, the scan can be interrupted, but keep in mind that you cannot continue from the point of stopping: you will have to start all over again.
A great feature is category vise scanning, such as privacy sweep, registry clean, disk optimization, junk file clean, confidential data, etc. Also, you can configure auto-correction (during scanning), ignore list, skip object categories. At the end of the scan, a report is displayed with the results: there is the possibility of optimization in the event of a fix.
After the app has optimized and cleaned up, you will be presented with a detailed report and log for each completed task. In the ignore list, you can specify those items that would be skipped during the scan, and thus speed up the process.
