BleachBit6.0.6.633

BleachBit removes cached data, cookies, browsing history, temporary files, logs, and other application debris to recover disk space from a Windows system. You choose specific cleaners, preview the files they identify, and delete only the items you approve, with coverage for Firefox, Google Chrome, Opera, and other applications. It can also clear tracking data across multiple browsers and applications in one operation.

For privacy work, BleachBit shreds selected files to make recovery difficult, wipes free disk space to conceal traces of deleted data, and vacuums Firefox data. Its cleaners include Python, Android Studio, Gradle Cache, fish, Zsh, Claude, and browser supercookies, while fast deletion provides an alternative to more thorough secure wiping. Advanced users can automate cleanup with command-line and scripting support or create custom CleanerML rules for applications and file patterns.

BleachBit 6.0.4 is an open-source GPLv3 maintenance release for Windows 8.1 or later and Server 2012 R2 or later on x86 systems; it works offline and without registration or license activation, and has no ads or upsells. The update includes security fixes, bug fixes, code cleanup, faster startup and scanning, corrected secure wiping, stronger network-path and notification handling, and a smaller Windows installer and installed footprint; Windows also moves the application menu to a right-side hamburger button.

This release adds early macOS support with a Safari cleaner, compatibility for existing Chrome and Firefox cleaners, full command-line support, and early graphical-interface support. It suits people cleaning personal machines, sanitizing sensitive files, or scripting maintenance across fleets.
