Does the application delete documents or photos?

Not automatically. Documents and photos are not included in system cleanup rules. Large files and duplicates are removed only after manual selection and confirmation.

How does the trial differ from Pro?

The trial unlocks all features for 7 calendar days. After it ends, a Pro licence is required; reinstalling the application does not restart the trial.

Does reinstalling restart the trial?

No. To prevent repeated trials, the application creates an irreversible SHA-256 device fingerprint from stable hardware identifiers. Raw serial numbers are not sent to or stored on the server.

How many devices does a licence cover?

The number of devices depends on the selected plan and is shown in your account.

Do I need a separate Pro download?

No. Each operating system uses one installer. A licence key activates Pro in the application.

Yes. A universal build for Intel and Apple Silicon is available with macOS-specific cleanup rules.

Are Apple Silicon and Intel supported?

Yes. The macOS bundle includes both arm64 and x86_64 architectures.

Can cleanup be undone?

You can cancel before confirmation. After cleanup, files moved to the system Trash can be restored until the user empties it.

What are SMART and TBW?

SMART is a set of drive health indicators, while TBW is the amount of data written. RuDesk Cleaner displays only metrics actually reported by the hardware.

Are administrator rights required?

Regular cleanup and diagnostics work without them. Windows requests UAC only before fixed system recovery and verification commands.

Can the application be used by a company?

Yes. Contact AKERNEL LLC for the appropriate business or multi-device licence.

RuDesk Cleaner — safe computer cleanup and maintenance

Q: Is RuDesk Cleaner safe to use?

Yes. Before cleanup, the application rechecks allowed directories, the cleanup plan checksum and every selected item. Where supported, files are moved to the system Trash and can be restored.

Free up disk space, speed up your system, and monitor your computer in a few clicks.
