What's new

• New look. New OpenCleaner icon (a silver drive with a blue sweep), brand colors on every
  platform, and the Ubuntu font on Android (and on Linux when it is installed).
• Preview before you delete. Click a file in Disk usage to see it first: images, the start of
  text files, size, date and location, with Open and Delete. In Clean, the eye button (Review)
  lists the files inside an item so you can check them before ticking it.
• Built-in player for mp4, mp3, flac and other video and audio (macOS, Android, Linux, Windows
  WinUI).
• Disk map. A WinDirStat-style map of the current folder: colored blocks sized by space, by file
  type. Click a folder to go in, click a file to preview it.
• Sort and Top N. Sort by biggest, oldest, newest or file type, and show only the top 5, 10, 50
  or 100. A percentage shows while sizes are being measured.
• Apps page. Installed apps with their size and when they were last used, sortable by size,
  least or most recently used, or name, with the same Top choices.
• Uninstall with leftovers (Windows, macOS, Linux). Removes the app and shows its leftover files
  first (caches, preferences, settings) so you choose what goes. Folders that may hold your data
  start unticked. Uninstalling deletes permanently: nothing goes to the Trash or Recycle Bin.
  On Android it opens the system's own uninstall prompt.
• Linux: works on more distros. Detects the distro and uses its package manager: Arch, CachyOS,
  Omarchy and Arch Linux ARM (pacman); Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint and Raspberry Pi OS (APT, plus old
  Snap revisions); Fedora and Rocky Linux (DNF); Bazzite and other image-based systems (system
  packages left alone, Flatpak only). Runs on GTK 4.8 / libadwaita 1.2 and newer, so Debian 12 and
  Raspberry Pi OS work too.
• Windows installer. A normal setup program (per-user, no admin prompt), with Start menu entry,
  optional desktop shortcut and uninstaller, for x64, ARM64 and 32-bit.
• Linux single-file builds for x86_64 and ARM64, no installation needed.

Good to know

• The Windows installers are not code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen shows "Unknown publisher".
  Click More info, then Run anyway.
• The macOS app is not notarized. The first time, right-click it, choose Open, then confirm.
• The Android APK is debug-signed. It installs over earlier OpenCleaner test builds.
• The Linux single-file builds use your system's display libraries (Wayland, X11, OpenGL), which every
  desktop already has. If video does not play in the single-file build, running from source
  (python3 opencleaner.py) uses your system's GStreamer.
• "Last used" is exact on macOS (Spotlight) and Android (usage access), and approximate on Linux
  (the program file's access time) and Windows (Explorer's launch history).
• The Windows features added in this release (preview, map, sort, Apps page, uninstall) are the least
  tested part of 1.2. Please report anything odd.

Safety

Every clean and uninstall shows what it will remove and waits for your confirmation. Each item can
only delete inside its own folders; anything else is refused. Files in use are skipped, never forced.
