The company offering “the right Paw you were looking for” has updated its flagship product, CleanMyMac, an all-in-one cleaning utility for power users of Apple’s Mac operating system. Supported on the three popular versions of Mac OS X employed worldwide (Tiger, Leopard and Snow Leopard), CleanMyMac can efficiently unclutter a user’s account, freeing not only their memory, but also their minds.

CleanMyMac can delete useless files that pile up over time and waste valuable disk space, as well as slow down the system. Unlike simpler “cleaning” solutions, CleanMyMac combines features such as the ability to slim down Universal Binaries, delete unneeded languages, logs and caches, Quick Erase, application uninstallation, and the ability to fully erase trash left from buried applications. With CleanMyMac installed and run periodically, your computer will work faster and smoother.

As noted above, MacPaw has added the scanning for Scripting Additions functionality to the “Plugins” section, in version 1.7.2, alongside Russian localization. Finally, MacPaw reveals, this new version of CleanMyMac fixes the Application uninstallation freeze-up issue reported by some users. MacPaw is also busy working on CleanMyMac 2, a totally redesigned version of the app, starting from the icon, and ending with the support for third-party plugins. The update will be made available free of charge to all existing CleanMyMac buyers when it’s ready.

“Due to space available after taking care of your machine with CleanMyMac, your Mac will work faster and smoother without devouring important system resources,” the developer stresses. “You will be able to simultaneously enjoy listening to online radio, working with image processing or graphics editing programs, downloading or uploading necessary documents, etc.,” a rough description of the benefits goes.

CleanMyMac requires a computer running Mac OS X 10.4.11 or later. The software is a Universal Binary, running natively on both PowerPC and Intel-based Macs.
