Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I created TidySweep Software because everyday computer tools often feel either too complicated, too aggressive, or overloaded with features most people never use.
TidySweep began with a simple goal: make application cleanup easier to understand. Instead of leaving users guessing about related files and caches, the app presents useful information through a clean, approachable interface.
TidySnipping grew from another everyday frustration—the need for a quick, focused screenshot tool on macOS. It supports area, window, and full-screen capture, then automatically saves screenshots to the Desktop.
Throughout development, the focus evolved toward three principles:
Simple and friendly design
Clear user control
Local-first processing whenever possible
Both apps are still evolving, and this launch is an opportunity to learn from real users. I would especially appreciate feedback about usability, compatibility, and which features would make these tools more useful.
Thank you for checking out TidySweep Software! 💙
We took your recommendations into consideration and have implemented several of them in the latest version of the app. Thank you for helping us improve TidySweep! 💙
TidySweep 1.2.4 New features:
Multi Select must be explicitly enabled before selecting multiple apps.
Sequential multi-app uninstall with individual failure protection.
Cleanup quarantine with “Restore Last” rollback.
Optional weekly or monthly safe-cache cleanup.
Startup Apps dashboard with estimated impact.
Reversible disabling of current-user startup entries.
System-wide startup entries remain protected and use Task Manager.
Updated certification notes and version metadata.
A nice clean tool, been looking for something straightforward like this on Windows. One small idea if you're open to it: add a simple snapshot or restore point option before it deletes leftover files and registry entries, so people on older machines feel a bit safer hitting the big clean button.
Love how TidySweep keeps the interface uncluttered while still surfacing leftover files for review, it feels way less intimidating than the usual cleanup tools.
The leftover files view is genuinely helpful, caught a few old game installs I forgot about. Glad it's standalone and not pushing some bundled suite.
honestly this looks like a solid cleanup tool, but one thing that would help me trust it more is a rollback option so i can undo any cleanup if something breaks after running it. basically a safety net before it deletes anything would make me way more comfortable using it on my main pc
Honestly the leftover file review after uninstalling is super handy, caught a bunch of stuff other cleaners usually miss. Feels lightweight too, didn't notice it slowing down my machine at all.
One thing that would help me a lot is a startup impact summary showing which installed programs are slowing down boot time, so I can disable or uninstall the heavy hitters right from the same screen instead of digging through Task Manager separately.
A bulk uninstall view where you can select multiple apps and remove them in one pass would be a huge time saver. The current sequential flow works but gets tedious when I'm cleaning out older machines with dozens of leftover programs.
honestly this looks pretty handy, would be cool if you could schedule cleanups on like a weekly basis so you don't have to remember to run it yourself. that kind of set and forget thing would make it way more useful for people who aren't super into pc maintenance
The leftover files view is actually really helpful, it caught some old junk I didn't even know was there. Cleaned up my startup list without me having to dig through settings.
