Caution

⚠️ Avoid fluentcleaner[.]org

fluentcleaner[.]org is NOT an official FluentCleaner website and is not operated, maintained, or endorsed by me.

I strongly recommend not downloading or installing anything from that site.

There is only ONE official source for FluentCleaner:
https://github.com/builtbybel/FluentCleaner
If another website claims to provide an "official" FluentCleaner download, installer, build, or mirror, it isn't coming from me.

FluentCleaner Classic is settling into its final form. This release polishes the WinForms interface, expands the cleaning engine with registry exclusions and new targeted cleaners, strengthens database safety, and improves runtime JSON localization, all while keeping the tiny .NET Framework 4.8 footprint and reducing duplicate code under the hood
