A modern, enterprise-grade Windows optimizer, cleaner & debloater — powered by Rust, React and PowerShell.
⚠️ Warning: This tool modifies your system — it removes apps, edits the registry and deletes files. Dry-run mode is ON by default. Review the console output before applying anything.
Win-Optimizer-Pro is a flat, enterprise-style desktop app that automates cleanup, debloating, tweaking and system hardening on Windows — so you don't have to click through ten different settings apps. It combines the deep feature set of the classic Chris Titus WinUtil with modern power-user tools, wrapped in a clean teal/slate UI with light & dark mode.
Designed for Windows 10 / Windows 11.

The fastest way — one line, straight from GitHub, no install needed:
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/karan5028ji/Win-Optimizer-Pro/main/run.ps1 | iexPrefer a proper install (per-machine, Start Menu + Desktop shortcuts)? Grab the Win-Optimizer-Pro_2.1.4_x64-setup.exe from the Releases page.
Or install with winget (coming soon):
winget install karan5028ji.WinOptimizerProReleases are built automatically by CI on tags — just push a
v*tag. The app checks for updates on startup and installs them in the background (auto-updater).
| Area | Change |
|---|---|
| 🛑 Reliable Stop button | Optimizer processes now run inside a Windows Job Object that kills the whole tree (including escaped installers) on close — Stop actually stops, and the status bar no longer gets stuck in "Running". |
| 🚀 Snappier console | Console renders only the last 300 log lines instead of all 4,000, so long cleanup runs stay responsive. |
| ⚙️ Context menu toggle fixed | The Sidebar context-menu switch now reflects the real on-disk state and reliably toggles desktop/mobile context menus. |
| 🧹 Cleaner cleanup | Locked temp files are taken ownership of and swept on a second pass instead of being left behind; "already empty" false alarms removed. |
| 🏷️ Consistent naming | Branding fully renamed from the old pc-optimizer / PC Optimizer to Win-Optimizer-Pro (window title, installer, PS1 headers, logs, debug env). |
| Area | Change |
|---|---|
| ⚡ Blazing-fast temp cleanup | Temp / Windows Temp / Prefetch now clean via a native robocopy /mir sweep instead of a slow cmd for /f loop. 20,000 files clear in ~13s (was 60s+). Locked files are skipped safely and ownership is taken only when something actually survives the first pass. |
| 📈 Smooth live progress | The status bar now climbs percent-by-percent while folders are cleaning — progress is streamed from robocopy's own output with zero filesystem contention. |
| 🛡️ Bulletproof run supervision | optimizer:done now always fires, even when a background process keeps the console pipe open — the UI can never get stuck in "running" with dead buttons. Run-sequence IDs stop stale completions after Stop + re-run. |
| 🎨 Fresh app icon | New application icon propagated to the exe, taskbar, window, Start Menu, Desktop and installer. |
| 🖥️ UI responsiveness | Console output is batched to one paint per ~80 ms, so heavy logs (winget/DISM/sfc) no longer freeze the interface. |
| 🔧 Engine hardening | Weighted progress phases, monotonic percent math, safe enumeration on locked folders (-1 never leaks into logs). |
| Category | What it does |
|---|---|
| Install Software | Install, upgrade or uninstall popular apps through WinGet; bulk "Upgrade All" |
| Debloater | Browse real installed bloatware by category, remove / restore apps individually (optional System Restore point) |
| System Tweaks | Privacy & performance tweaks — telemetry, background apps, hibernation, fast startup, Game Bar, Cortana, tips, Bing results. Presets: Standard / Minimal / Advanced |
| Tuning | DNS presets, Windows Update policy, power plans, optional Windows Features, one-click Fixes (DISM etc.), OpenSSH server, legacy control panels, undo tweaks |
| Win11 ISO | Create a bootable Windows 11 ISO from an existing install |
| Security | Anti-brick pre-flight gate, elevation handling, dry-run by default |
| Feature | What it does |
|---|---|
| 🛡️ Anti-Brick Pre-Flight | Verifies disk space (≥20 GB), battery (≥30% or charging) and admin rights before heavy operations (DISM, ISO, deep debloat, bulk installs). Auto-aborts safely if any check fails |
| ⚡ 1-Click Profiles | Gamer, Privacy/Stealth and Developer profiles — one click applies the full stack incl. apps |
| 📂 Config Import/Export | Save your choices (apps, tweaks, DNS, power, updates, features, SSH) as a shareable JSON profile in Documents\Win-Optimizer-Pro |
| 🎛️ Startup Manager | See & control everything that launches at boot — registry Run keys and Startup folders, with Enable/Disable |
| 🖱️ Win11 Context Menu | Toggle the classic Win10-style right-click menu |
| 🎨 Registry Transparency | Hover-tooltips on every tweak show the exact registry key being changed |
| 🌗 Light & Dark Mode | Flat teal/slate design system with a one-click theme toggle |

- Data-driven "System readiness" radial rings — WinGet catalog coverage, tweak coverage, startup coverage
- One-click read-only Quick Scan (temp items, DNS cache, bloatware, pending tweaks)
- Live streaming console with a Stop button
- Frontend — React 18 + Tailwind CSS (flat design system, Inter font) + Vite
- Backend — Rust (Tauri v2), async process management with process-tree kill
- Engine — PowerShell (

v2.1.3 verified against the cleanup & progress rework on the production build:
- 20,000-file temp folder cleared in ~13 seconds with a monotonic 0→100% status-bar climb (44 progress frames, no frozen UI)
- Locked-file fallback:
takeown/icaclsruns only on survivors; locked items are reported and safely skipped - Nested trees (sub-folder + deep paths) fully cleaned in the first pass
- Dry-run mode deletes nothing; non-admin preview is read-only
- Empty folders, missing folders and access-denied enumeration handled cleanly
- Full
optimizer.ps1 -DryRun -Cleanphase flow (temp + network) exits clean with weighted progress
