Compatible with Windows 8.1
“Blast from the past”Come on, my guy. Give me a freaking break.
Windows 8.1 was released in 2013, so yeah, a blast from the past!
Your reply only further reinforces what I’m saying. 2013 was not that long ago.
Your comment being 1 minute old would also qualify it as a blast from the past.
People out there waging wars over money and power when the real battle lies in semantics.
Oh come on people!!
If there was EVER a use case for repurposing a USB stick to make a Linux install USB, it would HAVE to be this one, surely?!
More like DBAN
I hate how all-around scammy this is. Who knows what the hell that thing does when plugged in…
It seems it’s a fairly cookie cutter program that wastes an awful lot of bytes and CPU cycles on just emptying your recycle bin, removing “internet clutter,” (i.e. clearing your cache and temp files), removing broken shortcuts, twiddling your run-on-startup apps, etc., which are all actions that are not only fabulously unlikely to make your Windows machine perform any faster but are also all things you could do yourself in about thirty seconds.
I lifted that screenshot from this video, chosen purely on the merits of this guy’s hat.
You can also find plenty of places to download the installer found on the Win Cleaner USB drive (it’s just a cheap USB storage stick in a funny shaped housing) and try it yourself… possibly preferably inside a virtual machine.
So it doesn’t even remove unnecessary startup apps? Are you fucking kidding me? What a waste of money.
Ironically, clearing cache will make your Internet browsing slower.
Nuh-uh, I never visit the same site twice
Not even Google, to google Google?
I prefer to go to Bing to google DuckDuckGo.
Before you know it you’re debugging Snaps.
It most likely does nothing. I’m a bit angry that idiots certainly made a lot of money out of that scam.
Unlimited use on ONE computer for a YEAR!
So what happens with the hardware part after a year? 🤔
Exactly my question.
One year after use:
It always bothered me that the machine cooks itself but the tape is perfectly fine.
Blast from the past? Windows 8.1?
oh.
True, though this does seem super dated for Windows 8. This company was releasing early XP shit in 2012+
^also wow windows 8 was released 13 years ago?^
Yeah, same. Thought “oh, it’s pretty recent” lol
The company is still around. They chose an interesting name for their Mac software. No Linux drive, though. Wonder why
Not sure if real or if I’m gullible
A witty one like you? No chance
You might be in trouble, though. Luckily for you, I’m selling an app that protects you from scams!
The MacWeenCleaners, such a shitty clan.
I genuinely thought this was a joke way of packaging a Linux distro.
love how its unlimited but limited in every way
Should archive it and see if someone will do a decompile and analysis on it to see what it actually does.
I’m betting it looks at things that run-on-startup and more to check if theyr’e not system mandatory turns that off second would probably be erasing temp files, since windows notoriously has temp file deletion, and lastly might (heavy might) delete objects like Downloads that you haven’t opened for more than a year or so, assuming you simply forgot those
It’s probably pretty scammy, but I love the design which is 1:1 that of an actual cleaning product.
It basically just did what CCleaner does. Defrag your HDD and clean up the registry.
CCleaner defrags only if you install their defrag app (the probably just calls the Microsoft tool on background)
Go scatter these on the floor at blackhat
My guy, that’s not unlimited.
Did it just increase the mouse pointer speed?
win 8, the past i’d rather forget
Windows 8 was just Windows ME2.
I’m curious what’s on it. I’d guess it’s just a storage device with an antivirus and some system cleanup utilities. And enforces it’s restriction by storing a timestamp of when it was used.
I put in a low effort search trying to find out. Saw a couple of YouTube videos that might say, but not in a position to watch those right now. Also found a reddit thread asking the same question but the comments wouldn’t load. Gave up at that point.
If you still care, someone in here summarized it. And it’s about as worthless as you’d guess
Thanks! I gave it a read.
