#FREEWARE MAC CLEANER SOFTWARE CODE#

This is because some programs rely on the existence of the directory. Only the content of the directory will be cleaned. In that case, remove the app as soon as possible.Д¬lean Me also will not delete the directory itself. Normally Clean Me should not request an internet connection, if it does, you app is compromised.

If you do not trust Clean Me, then check its code or block all internet access with Little Snitch or RadioSilence. Clean Me does not save this password, nor does it load the password in a variable. What I do recommend are also the options that are checked when the app loads: emptying the trash, deleting Xcode derived data and mail attachments (once in a while).Д¬lean Me uses the pod ' STPrivilegedTask' to handle sensitive data like getting your root password. A large log file mostly indicates that a program (or your system) has some problems that need to be resolved. Large log files can be deleted after inspection.

If you do have a problem and want to delete the cache of some specific programs, I suggest you to click on the folder icon and search for that program and delete it this way.

This will not save you some precious space on your disk. If you delete it, the program will not only start slower, but will regenerate the cache files again. Cache files are what makes your programs load faster and perform tasks faster. I do not recommend you to delete your cache files. the cleaning option was just a handy extra feature. I wrote this app just for fast analysing purposes.
