Homedex

Feature · Clean Up

Free up gigabytes without deleting the wrong thing

Updated

Short answer

Homedex's Clean Up cards find the space you forgot about: installers you already ran, downloads you never opened again, huge screen recordings and old screenshots. You see every file before anything moves, and everything goes to the Recycle Bin.

Clean Up: old installers, forgotten downloads and big old videos, then Trash Selected moves them to the Recycle Bin

What Clean Up looks for

  • Old installers (.exe, .msi) for apps you've already installed
  • Downloads you haven't opened in months
  • Giant screen recordings and videos
  • Stale screenshots piling up on the Desktop

    Press Ctrl+Shift+K, or click a Clean Up card on the Home screen. Each card shows how much space it would free.

    Review the files

    Every file is listed with a preview, size and date. Untick anything you want to keep.

  3. 3
    Trash selected

    Selected files go to the Recycle Bin. Empty it when you're sure.

Questions

How is this different from Windows Disk Cleanup?
Disk Cleanup and Storage Sense clear system and temporary files. Homedex Clean Up looks at your own files (downloads, installers, recordings, screenshots), which are usually where most of the space goes.
Can I undo a clean up?
Yes. Files go to the Recycle Bin, so you can restore them until you empty it.

Every file you own, easy to find.

Homedex is a visual file browser for Windows. Big previews, plain-English search, text inside screenshots, duplicate cleanup — all on your device.
