Clean Shutdown is a software that moves designated files and folders to the trash, then empties the trash and shuts down the Mac.
Clean Shutdown (CS) is a useful software designed for Mac OS, specifically for pre-Mac OS 10.0. This AppleScript efficiently moves specific files and folders to the trash, empties it and shuts down the computer, making it a one-stop solution for users who want to clean their system regularly.
The software comes in handy for dealing with various issues commonly faced by Mac users. One of these issues is the accumulation of a large disk cache in web browsers, which can lead to slow browsing and excessive hard disk usage. Another common issue is the storage of cookies which could carry personal information and compromise the user's privacy. In addition, there are temporary files and folders that users may want to get rid of frequently. Clean Shutdown helps automate these tasks and maintain the performance of the operating system over time.
Moreover, Clean Shutdown can be useful for users dealing with specific issues such as removing ObjectSupportLib extension in MacOS 8.x or avoiding variants of the AutoStart worm.
The latest version of Clean Shutdown, version 1.1, comes with more robust folder handling support and international language support, thanks to the contribution of Alain P. Tytgadt.
In summary, Clean Shutdown is a useful AppleScript for regular users of Mac operating systems pre-Mac OS 10.0. It is helpful for cleaning the system and automating tasks that would otherwise be time-consuming. However, users must note that Clean Shutdown does not work on Mac OS 10.0 and later.
