MacOSCleaner v1.1 Release Notes

We're excited to announce the release of MacOSCleaner v1.1! This major update brings a completely overhauled uninstaller engine, comprehensive localization, a native macOS UI redesign, and dozens of new cleaning categories.

🌍 Complete Localization & Internationalization

MacOSCleaner is now fully localized and supports multiple languages to provide a native experience for users worldwide:

  • Supported Languages: English, Russian, Ukrainian, and Spanish.
  • Dynamic Formatting: Dates and byte counts (e.g., GB, MB, KB) now dynamically format according to your selected application language.
  • Full Coverage: All UI elements, error messages, cleanup logs, and system information screens have been fully translated.

🗑️ Advanced Uninstaller Engine

The Uninstaller has been rewritten from the ground up for maximum safety and thoroughness:

  • Evidence-Based Scanning: A new 5-level deep scanning engine automatically tracks down hidden related files using 14 types of evidence (Bundle ID, Team ID, Spotlight, Plist contents, etc.).
  • Background Deep Scanning: Apps are now thoroughly scanned in the background. The UI displays real-time progress and instantly updates the app's total size once deep scanning is complete.
  • Developer Components: The uninstaller now detects and allows you to safely remove leftover developer components alongside the application.
  • Reveal in Finder: A new quick action allows you to instantly reveal any related file or folder in Finder before deciding to delete it.

🎨 Native macOS UI Redesign

The interface has been modernized to align perfectly with Apple's Human Interface Guidelines:

  • Settings Redesign: Completely rebuilt using native macOS Form styles to match System Settings perfectly.
  • Modernized Dashboards: The Dashboard, Processes, and Startup Services views now feature a refined Apple Design aesthetic with controlBackgroundColor, rounded cards, and SF Symbols.
  • Optimized Layout: The minimum window width has been adjusted to 800px for a more compact and flexible workspace.

🧹 Expanded Cleanup Capabilities

The cleanup engine is faster, safer, and knows about more apps than ever before:

  • 54 Cleanup Categories: Including 18 brand new categories like Launch Agents/Daemons, Privileged Helper Tools, Package Receipts, and unused applications.
  • 298 Built-in Cleaning Paths: Safely clears caches for popular browsers, IDEs (VSCode, JetBrains, Cursor, Xcode), and language environments (Node, Python, Ruby, Swift, Go, etc.).
  • Parallel Execution: Cleanup tasks now run concurrently for significantly faster performance.
  • 29 New App-Specific Rules: Tailored uninstallation rules for over 95 popular apps, including Docker, Parallels, Adobe CC, MS Office, Discord, Figma, and more.

🐛 Bug Fixes & Safety Improvements

  • Full Disk Access (FDA): Fixed an issue where the FDA guidance window wouldn't appear on startup, and resolved false positives in FDA permission checks by validating restricted directories.
  • OrbStack Safety: Safely removed OrbStack paths from IDE caches to prevent accidental deletion of VM and Docker infrastructure.
  • Duplicate Files: Fixed a bug causing the duplicate files scanner to report inflated disk usage numbers.
  • Xcode Previews: Resolved a compilation issue preventing Xcode Canvas previews from rendering in Debug mode.
