⚡ SwiftPC-Booster

SwiftPC-Booster is a lightweight Windows batch utility that helps you reclaim disk space and improve system responsiveness by cleaning out temporary files, cached data, and the Recycle Bin.

🧹 One click to clear system clutter safely and efficiently.


🚀 Features

  • Deletes temporary files from:
    • %TEMP% (user temp folder)
    • C:\Windows\Temp
  • Clears old prefetch data from C:\Windows\Prefetch
  • Empties the Recycle Bin via PowerShell
  • Automatically requests Administrator privileges
  • Provides clear status output for each operation

⚠️ Important Notes

  • Administrator access is required to modify system folders.
    The script will prompt for elevation automatically if needed.
  • Deleting Prefetch data is optional — it is not necessary for performance.
    Windows automatically manages Prefetch to speed up app loading; the script clears it only if you choose to.
  • The cleanup operations are safe, but use at your own risk.
    Always ensure you understand what’s being deleted before automating this.

Disk Cleanup: cleanmgr.exe

Storage Sense: Settings → System → Storage → Storage Sense

These provide similar cleanup features with full system safety.

💡 Future Ideas Add PowerShell version with progress and logging

Add command-line switches (/silent, /log, /prefetch-off)

Create cross-platform version for macOS & Linux (optional)
