Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Have Not Tried

Is AppZapper similar to CleanSweep?...Spring Cleaning?


I found that like other users have mentioned, these programs do NOT find the "itsy-bitsy" peices that get thrown into so many files, w/ so many names... (None of which I can associate with a specific app. any way!!!!)



Which of these is the best to get ALL the "fragmented" files?????



Any other sugestion's to rid my Mac of all the "crap"?????



Gf

Question?????? - leoofborg1

AppZapper uses Spotlight AFAIK to find relevent pieces. While I can't comment on the other apps [like Spring Cleaning], bear in mind that AppZapper really is an OS X app.

As to finding -everything- if you just wanted to deinstall iWeb from iLIfe 06, are you sure you'd want AppZapper taking ALL the /App support files? Even from the other iApps? I think these devs asked that question and chose wisely.

I'd probably like it if it used package receipts to 'deinstall' stuff, but this solution is elegant.

As to your 'defrag' comment, how cute / OS 9. Tiger defrags itself. Constantly. Didn't you know this?

You don't need a defragger on Tiger. That's just snake oil.

No defrag needed for Tiger? Not exactly... - chazzola
