Fixes a real uninstaller bug (some uninstallers' own windows never came
to the front), plus two new screens: a real "Cookies to Preserve" picker
and a composite Dashboard health score.

Fixed

  • Some uninstallers' own confirmation window never came to the front.
    A program's uninstaller (Riot's VALORANT uninstall dialog, confirmed
    live) could genuinely open and sit there, hidden behind Prune's own
    window, with no sign anything had happened -- Windows' own
    focus-stealing prevention was refusing to let a background-spawned
    process's window become the foreground window. Prune now grants that
    right before spawning any uninstaller.
  • Deep Clean and Disk Map's own "still working" indicators no longer
    borrow a generic loading pulse -- the row a scan or clean is currently
    reading now sweeps, and Disk Map's file-type bars grow into their
    measured width as the numbers actually arrive, instead of snapping to
    a value that was already final.

Added

  • Cookies to Preserve (Settings → Cleanup): scan for the real cookie
    domains on this machine and choose which ones survive a Deep Clean,
    instead of always losing every cookie on a browser's cookie rules. The
    keep-list engine has existed since Deep Clean's rebuilt cleaning engine
    landed in 2.6.0 -- this is the screen to actually use it.
  • A composite System Health score on the Dashboard, replacing the
    ring that only ever showed drive wear. It now combines drive health,
    free disk space, broken/orphaned installs and hardware errors into one
    number, with a breakdown line underneath so it's never a mystery figure
    -- and it stays blank rather than guess until the real reads it depends
    on have actually come back.
  • Uninstalling now matches Revo Uninstaller's own two-step flow: a
    manual "Scan" step once the uninstaller has actually finished (instead
    of racing into a leftover scan the moment its process exits, which can
    race real background cleanup some uninstallers keep doing), and an
    optional "automatically remove everything found" checkbox that skips
    the review screen -- still fully undoable through Quarantine either
    way.
  • More hover and click feedback across the app: every button that wasn't
    already using one of the app's three named button styles now
    acknowledges a click, and checkboxes press with a distinct feel of
    their own.
