Editor's review of Free Window Sweeper
From price to operation, this privacy cleaning tool does everything right. Free Window Sweeper's check box and information window interface needs no instruction. Novice users will pick up this application in seconds.
This application cleans files and settings from Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera, and Firefox browsers. It also removes settings and personal information from Windows, Microsoft Office, certain instant messengers, and select applications found on the computer. Operating Free Window Sweeper takes just a few mouse clicks. Simply check the categories to delete and press the Test button. The program almost immediately reports how many files would be deleted, and the kilobytes of hard drive space recovered. Users can easily set the program to list each file, but no matter the mode the application reports progress. This is a fast cleaning application, so users are not given the opportunity to select which files to delete from the list.
Advanced users will appreciate the easy method to add custom lists, directories, and settings for this application to clean. An easy freeware application to recommend, Free Window Sweeper performs with the power of much more expensive programs in this genre.
