  • Schedule automatic Full Clean (daily/weekly via Task Scheduler)
• Optional logging to clean_log.txt next to the script
• Silent /auto mode for unattended runs from Task Scheduler
• Every action reports a real [PASS] / [FAIL] result — nothing is assumed to succeed

---

Requirements

• Windows 10 or 11
• Administrator privileges (the script elevates itself automatically via UAC)
• PowerShell available on PATH (default on all supported Windows versions)

---

Usage

1. Download System Cleaner.bat.
2. Double-click to run. It will request Administrator access via UAC.
3. Use the on-screen menu to pick an action, or run 6 - FULL CLEAN for the full routine.

Unattended / scheduled runs

The script supports a silent flag for use with Task Scheduler:

SystemCleanerUltra.bat /auto

This runs a Full Clean with logging enabled and no prompts. You can set this up automatically from the in-app menu: System Tools → Schedule Automatic Full Clean.

---

Disclaimer

This script performs destructive operations: deleting temp files, browser caches, event logs, old downloads, and optionally running CHKDSK /f /r (which requires a restart). Review the source before running it, and use the Old Downloads and CHKDSK full scan options with care — they include confirmation prompts for a reason.
