The honest Windows cleaner that doesn't lie to you
PersonalCleaner — a free, open-source (MIT) Windows optimizer showing real numbers, not fake "problems." Catch frozen apps, free RAM, clean junk, manage startup, restart Explorer — previews, zero network calls. v1.2 adds an optional Pro key (offline, HMAC-signed, machine-locked, 1-year) for automation: background upkeep, weekly idle restart, Defender exclusions, service tuning. No DRM, no phone-home, no subscription. Python + Tkinter, PyInstaller. VirusTotal: 0/67 clean.
Maker here 👋 I got tired of "PC cleaners" that scream "3,000 problems!" and push upgrades, so I built the opposite — one that shows real measurements and previews every cleanup before it happens.
The honesty part matters to me: the Pro key is honour-based (the validation code is public), not DRM. Free stays free, forever.
Happy to answer anything — especially on the "how do you monetize without being slimy in a slimy category" question.

Who hunted GitHub?
GitHub was hunted by getobserver. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
