GitHub - The honest Windows cleaner that doesn't lie to you

by•
PersonalCleaner — a free, open-source (MIT) Windows optimizer showing real numbers, not fake "problems." Catch frozen apps, free RAM, clean junk, manage startup, restart Explorer — previews, zero network calls. v1.2 adds an optional Pro key (offline, HMAC-signed, machine-locked, 1-year) for automation: background upkeep, weekly idle restart, Defender exclusions, service tuning. No DRM, no phone-home, no subscription. Python + Tkinter, PyInstaller. VirusTotal: 0/67 clean.

Maker here 👋 I got tired of "PC cleaners" that scream "3,000 problems!" and push upgrades, so I built the opposite — one that shows real measurements and previews every cleanup before it happens. The honesty part matters to me: the Pro key is honour-based (the validation code is public), not DRM. Free stays free, forever. Happy to answer anything — especially on the "how do you monetize without being slimy in a slimy category" question.
