SYSTEM & BROWSER CLEANERSurgical Purge

Surgical purge of system junk & browser caches.

DiskUni's Cleaner module provides a surgical, non-destructive cleaning engine designed to safely remove gigabytes of accumulated operating system junk, browser shader caches, installer remnants, crash logs, and thumbnail databases. Unlike blunt cleaners that risk breaking Windows updates or deleting your saved browser passwords, DiskUni enforces strict 100% safe heuristic rules with byte-by-byte dry-run previews.

06 / FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will cleaning browser caches log me out of my websites?

No! DiskUni specifically targets volatile HTTP cache chunks, shader caches, and temporary media assets while strictly preserving your cookies, saved passwords, and browser history.

What happens if a file is currently open in another program?

DiskUni detects active operating system file locks and gracefully bypasses locked files without throwing errors or causing system instability.

Can I undo a cleanup action?

Yes! If you enable the Safe Staging mode, cleaned files are kept in a compressed quarantine pool for 7 days before permanent deletion.
