TrashMe 3 für Mac

The current version at the Mac App Store is 3.5.3

An App named "ThrashMe" ? Well, after reading ShotBlocker's comment its name is very fitting... "Put Me (the app) into the Trash" ;-)

This is not a review per se, it is a discussion of the class of software to which this program belongs. As a public service to the MacUpdate community, I've found as many of these "cleaner" apps on this website as I could and listed them them below. I intend to post this every time a new or updated version of one of these things shows up on this site. There are now 45 in the list, and it seems like new entries in the 'Mac cleaner' market space pop up every day, metastasizing like a cancer. Unfortunately, more is not better. They are all of dubious value. Many have no reviews here. Many have what look to be essentially fake 5-star reviews with no useful commentary. Many -- probably the most accurate and honest -- have negative reviews, by users who have been burned by them. Most of the developers' descriptions boast about what a great job they do, but the truth is, there are no good, comprehensive, head-to-head reviews of these programs by impartial 3rd parties. True experts in macOS maintenance advise against using any of them, because in general they serve little useful purpose and they can easily do more harm than good. Macs simply do not need "cleaning." (See for example: https://www.thesafemac.com/the-myth-of-the-dirty-mac/) Some of these programs are notorious for being little more than malware. You are well-advised to read any program documentation and make a RELIABLE BACKUP before attempting any changes. If I have missed any programs that should be on the list, please leave a comment and let me know. I will rate all these programs with one star, probably one more than they deserve. And I would appreciate comments. If you disagree, please speak up. But if all you can come up with is 5 stars and a sentence or two saying that program X is great and I don't know what I'm talking about, please save your breath. No one here will take you seriously. And I apologize for the almost unreadable formatting, a severe limitation of MacUpdate itself, which compresses maximum text into minimum space, leaving no whitespace for readability. :: BEGIN LIST: : Aooro : AppCleaner & Uninstaller : AutoTrash : AweCleaner : CCleaner : CleanGeeker : Clean Me : Cleaner One Pro : CleanMyMac X : Cocktail : Combo Cleaner : Disk Aid : Disk Cleaner : Disk Cleaner Pro : Disk Doctor : Disk Expert : Disk Health : DiskKeeper Advanced Cleaner : DiskKeeper Cleaner - Modern : DiskKeeper Pro : Disk Xray : Doctor Disk Cleaner : HD Cleaner : iMac Cleaner : MacBooster : Mac Cleaner : MacClean : MacClean360 : MacCleaner Pro : MacCleanse : MacEnizer : MacMaintenance : MacMaster : Mojave Cleaner : Omni Remover : PowerMyMac : Pro Disk Cleaner : Quick Cleaner : Sensei : Stellar SpeedUpMac : TrashMe 3 : Washing Machine : WeCleanse : WinZip Mac Optimizer : Wise Mac Care :: END LIST : :: The only system maintenance tools I recommend are 1) TinkerTool System, a true bargain priced at only $14 for a single license. TinkerTool System is a an exceptional piece of quality engineering, safe when used properly, and superbly documented, with in-depth tutorials for every option. 2) OnyX, from Titanium Software, another excellent developer. 3) I have used Northern Softworks' "Cache Cleaners" in the past (the latest being "Catalina Cache Cleaner," which I have not used) and their products are first rate. As for the rest, listed above, it is safe to say that nobody who really knows what they're doing with Macs and macOS will touch them. Don't get sucked in by a pretty interface. You may very well regret it. -SB

This is the most sophisticated, well designed app uninstaller I have ever seen. I've tried many over the years. I've used AppDelete for the last 15 years, however,, the AppDelete developer passed away a couple of years ago and the app has not kept up with changes in the Apple OS. I was persuaded to try this app by the outstanding reviews. I'm impressed. Great interface, fast, clean process for deleting all files associated with an app.

Since I have always been a perfectionist of the first order, in the past I have tried out every uninstaller imaginable for the Mac! I have used TrashMe and TrashMe 2 and loved both of them because of the extra features that have always come with the superior functionality when it comes to removing almost every remnant of an installation of an app on the Mac. The developer has worked extra hard to perfect the uninstall algorithm to the point where, while never sacrificing the integrity of your operating system or any other app on your computer, TrashMe 3 removes virtually every component of an app that you no longer want on your system. So, in my opinion, TrashMe 3 removes more remnants than any other app out there. You actually can prove it to yourself by utilizing small app called FindAnyFile and perform a search on the developer and/or the name of a select application and FindAnyFile will provide.you with a complete list of all of the files that matter for that app upon completion of its search. While it is not advisable to use a file finder app like FindAnyFile for uninstalling apps unless you really know what you are doing, you will discover that after running TrashMe 3 to remove the same app, that TrashMe can uninstall virtually every file on the above test list! It is not magic... It is obvious that the developer worked very hard in perfecting the algorithm for TrashMe while keeping total safety and security of your system and its apps in mind at all times. TrashMe surprised me when it came out because it is strikingly beautiful and a perfect interface to run under the next operating system, Big Sur. There is also an abundance of other tools that come with TrashMe 3 at the very reasonable price! Other reviews in the future on MacUpdate will undoubtedly rave about these additional features. I recommend TrashMe 3 without reservation! It does what it sets out to do better than all the rest and more...
