InstallerClean 2.0.1

InstallerClean now comes in 15 languages

Japanese is a new, extremely kind gift from @coolvitto: the entire app translated from scratch by a native speaker. For the remaining languages, I have gone to great lengths to make the very best machine translations I can. Italian had already gone live in v1.9.1 - thanks again to @bovirus for submitting corrections and approving the rest of it. That process gave me the confidence to ship all the languages now, after another round of improvements, rather than wait for another coolvitto/bovirus to come along and make any final tweaks.

Each language covers the whole of InstallerClean: the app, the installer and the command line. It follows your Windows display language automatically. Click the globe icon to switch. I hope they're worthy but, if you speak English and one of those languages, please let me know if you can improve anything.

All 15 languages also have their own README, including screenshots of InstallerClean running in that language:

In addition, there's an Arabic README. The app's own interface isn't in Arabic yet; a right-to-left layout is a bigger, separate piece of work. It might happen one day :)

Also changed in version 2.

  • The main window has been reordered: the unneeded-files count, the one you came for, now sits directly under the opening explanation, with the quieter still-needed count under it. Thanks to @bovirus for the suggestion.
  • After a delete, the completion screen now reads "cleaned up" rather than "freed", because a delete to the Recycle Bin doesn't actually free anything until you empty the bin, and a new line on the screen spells that out. The restore hint ends with an "it won't!" link to the README's "Is it safe?" section (in the corresponding language).
  • The two file-details windows line their columns up properly: headers sit above their values instead of centred, and the size/patch-count figures are right-aligned under their headers.
  • Deleting now says files are "moved to the Recycle Bin" (was "sent to"), which is what Windows itself calls it.
  • Smaller wording and layout improvements elsewhere; the changelog lists everything.
  • Minor change to one of the displayed messages. This is the only change from v2.0.0. That version added a line to the completion screen after a delete, reminding you to empty the Recycle Bin to actually get the space back. It turns out that the line also showed up where it made no sense, like the "all clean" screen after a rescan. It's fixed now in v2.0.1; the line only ever appears after an actual Recycle Bin delete.

Downloads

  • InstallerClean-setup.exe (~90 MB) - Installer. Adds InstallerClean and the command-line tool, with an Add/Remove Programs entry to uninstall.
  • InstallerClean-portable.exe (~63 MB) - The app as a single executable. No installation; run it directly.
  • installerclean-cli.exe (~37 MB) - The command-line tool as a single executable, for scripting, scheduled tasks and deployment.

The apps are unsigned, so on first run Windows SmartScreen will warn that the publisher is unknown. Click "More info", then "Run anyway".
