How QuickClean Lite works
First, you select the types of files you wish to remove from your computer. A
wizard guides you through this process. Next, the QuickClean Lite wizard
scans the contents of your hard disk and identifies all files meeting your
pre-selected criteria.
The user proceeds with the cleaning task if they are satisfied with the results
of the scan. Finally, QuickClean Lite provides a graphic representation of the
amount of reclaimed space after deleting the files.
