Future improvements in TrashMe

We’re currently working hard on improving our uninstaller « TrashMe ». First, we’re developing a new tool to search for junk files, those little files completely uselesss even though they don’t take too much space on your hard drive. For example, when you copy folders from an old Windows partition, you may find a lot of useless « Desktop.ini » and « Thumbs.db ». Even with Mac OS X, you may want to delete « .git », « .svn » or « .DS_Store » files. Next version of TrashMe will help you searching and removing this kind of files.

The other feature we’re working on is the « Orhpans search ». This feature was part of TrashMe 1.x but was not perfect as it was searching only for Preferences files left by already uninstalled applications. So we decided to wait a little bit before getting the feature back into TrashMe, because we want something more powerful. This feature will be back either in upcoming version or the next one, depending on a beta test we will offer.

Be sure that we listen carefully to our customers feedback, so don’t hesitate to contact us if you’ve got some specific requests.
