(Editor’s note: Macworld is currently reviewing the MacKeeper cleaner and the claims here will update this claim accordingly. It’s instances such as this that make one raise an eyebrow and wonder what else might be missed. After infecting my Mac with a fair amount of dubious software (including an infamous keystroke logger disguised as an Adobe Flash Player update), the Malware Removal module was able to diagnose and remove most of my malware but kept the infamous MacKeeper in place, which then had to be torn out by the roots by a copy of Malwarebytes. Voici un tour d’horizon de ses fonctionnalités principales. The Malware Removal system has gotten better but isn’t where it could be. Depuis cette version X, CleanMyMac n’est plus seulement un logiciel de nettoyage, c’est également un logiciel de protection contre les maliciels, mais aussi un outil très pratique dans l’organisation et l’entretien de ses fichiers sur son ordinateur Apple. That’s disconcerting, as Firefox and Zoom have an extremely large user base. In my case, the Updater caught major updates such as Microsoft Office components and located a small update to SimCity but missed Zoom updates during its scans as well as the latest Firefox update. While well-intentioned and focused as marketing and selling points, the Updater function seems to only locate a smattering of available application updates, and it’s almost anyone’s guess as to what it will see and what will be glossed over. Unfortunately, CleanMyMac X has a couple of modules that are the app’s greatest hurdles. IDG The Updater and Malware Removal features The System Junk module after locating 7.41 gigabytes of extraneous files. CleanMyMac X still runs a handy set of maintenance scripts, such as clearing the DNS cache and repairing file permissions, which help to keep things in order. The modules themselves generally live up to their purpose, and it’s handy to be able to do a general search for data that’s consuming large parts of your hard drive as well as drill down and enable or disable specific system-level extensions as needed. The modules are Smart Scan, System Junk, Mail Attachments, Trash Bins, Malware Removal, Privacy, Optimization, Maintenance, Uninstaller, Updater, Extensions, Space Lens, Large & Old Files, and Shredder.Īs with previous versions, a handy Menu Bar item provides useful information, such as drive capacities, CPU speeds, system temperature, system load, and network activity readouts. The catch-all utility offers an assortment of modules with its core focus centered around identifying and cleaning out gigabytes upon gigabytes of unused system garbage. CleanMyMac X seems to be in danger of having run into the latter category.
