Two days ago (21st July 2011) MacPaw released an update to the massively popular Mac maintenance application CleanMyMac
The latest release of CleanMyMac (v1.9.6) now boasts full OS X Lion compatibility. Although the previous version ran without issue on OS X Lion, it was not officially supported.
CleanMyMac is a routine maintenance tool which is used to keep your Mac in tip top condition.
I have been using CleanMyMac for more then 12 months now and I always recommend it when asked what maintenance software to use.
Some of CleanMyMac’s 50+ features are:
- Cache Cleaner – Heavily used machines rapidly build up large ‘fragmented’ cache’s, and with cache’s being used in the majority of OS X native applications, cache maintenance can be complicated. CleanMyMac does all the hard work, so you don’t have to.
- Log’s Cleaner – CleanMyMac also boasts the ability of keeping application log files on a short lead. Unless you are trying to diagnose issues with Apps, log files tend to just eat up valuable storage.
- Language Cleaner – Many OS X native applications are compiled with large number of language files to enable their usage across the world. These are of course not needed if you only plan to use the app in your native language, CleanMyMac strips out all unneeded language files, thus slimming down your apps.
…… Plus many more besides.. For a full list check out the features list.
Only days after installing OS X Lion on my Mac and running CleanMyMac I have managed to recover over 100GB’s of used disk space! I run the app at least once a month, why don’t you add it to your regular maintenance plans..
