It's amazing how much junk your PC accumulates just by running for a few months, or even days. Perform a fresh install of Windows, add a few programs, remove a programs, and you'll see what we mean. Even if you only run a few applications, odds are you're storing a lot of unnecessary information in a cache file somewhere.

Wise Disk Cleaner and Wise Registry Cleaner are two easy to use freeware solutions for cleaning out the cobwebs. As the names suggest, one application helps find and fix incorrect registry settings while the other helps delete temporary files stored on your PC.

While we've long been fans of CCleaner, Wise Cleaner is highly customizable, allowing you to search for just certain temp file types. In a highly unscientific test we ran a few minutes ago, Wise Disk Cleaner found about twice as many removable files as CCleaner using the default settings on both programs.
