Minimal, fast system cleaner for Windows built with native C++ and Direct2D. No Electron, no bloat. Just works.

Slate Preview

Features

  • Native Performance: Written in C++17 with Direct2D rendering. ~400KB executable.
  • Deep Cleaning:
    • System: Temp files, logs, crash dumps, prefetch, and Windows updates.
    • Browsers: Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, and Firefox.
    • Applications: Discord, Slack, Spotify, VS Code, Steam, and Adobe.
    • Development: npm and pip caches.
  • Safety First: Intelligent filtering ignores system-critical paths. Files are safely sent to the Recycle Bin by default.

Usage

Download Slate.exe from Releases. Portable and lightweight - no installation required.

  1. Right-click and Run as Administrator (required for deep system access).
  2. Click the Slate icon to scan your system.
  3. Review the targets and click Clean to reclaim space.

Note: For best results, please close your web browsers before starting the cleaning process.

Troubleshooting

"Windows protected your PC" Warning: Because Slate is a free, hobbyist tool, it is not digitally signed.
