Tasks

Tasks is a simple and straightforward tool designed to help you clean and optimize your Windows computer. Regularly cleaning your computer does not only help you save space, but it can improve the overall performance of the PC in the long run.

The program is portable, so you can simply download and decompress the archive in the desired location on your PC. The interface comes with a dark and light theme and consists of a single window with several main functions, including Cleanup, Startup Programs and Task Manager.

The Cleanup feature is the trademark of the tool and it includes several other sub-feature that can help you clean junk and uninstall bloatware from your PC. You can clear the temporary folders, Recycle Bin, Memory Dumps, Event logs and anything else that the system stores, but does not really need. You can clear the history, cache, sessions and saved passwords from several browsers as we as Discord. The app provides a list of all the extensions in a browser so you can remove the ones that you are no longer using safely. Lastly, the tool allows you to uninstall Cortana, Solitaire, OneDrive and Edge.

Another function of the program is the Task Manager that has the role of providing a faster and more efficient alternative to the one embedded with Windows. Similar to the default Task Manager, the function displays the list of processes currently active on the system. The difference however is that it includes more details, such as PID, Status, User Running, Memory and Process Description, which can save you some time with identifying processes opened by different apps installed.

Last, but not least, Tasks includes a Startup Program feature that allows you to manage all programs that should start with Windows. Needless to say that you can add and remove programs, access the Start Folder and refresh the list with just one click.
