Keep your Mac in shape
MainMenu helps you maintain your Mac. Run daily, weekly and monthly maintenance scripts. Fix common disk problems by repairing disk permissions and volumes.
Clean your system
The pro version puts you in full command of your Mac. Free up disk space by cleaning the system cache, font cache and the caches of all users on your system. Free up even more space by emptying the trash of all users.
Reclaim your disk
Are you running out of disk space? With MainMenu you can free up disk space by cleaning the cache and browser data that's piling up on your disk. MainMenu can also find large files eating away at your precious disk space. And if your Desktop is cluttered you can let MainMenu archive it in a single sweep.
Optimize
Bring your Mac up to speed with MainMenu. Free up unused memory to get the most out of your Mac. Rebuild Launch Services to fix common problems when launching applications. Tune searching by rebuilding the Spotlight index. And speed up Apple Mail by rebuilding its mail index.
Clipboard
Have you every accidentally copied or cut something out of a document, thereby overwriting an item you had previously copied or cut? Worry no more: MainMenu's new Clipboard History remembers the last ten items you copied.
Fine-tune your Mac
MainMenu lets you dig into the Mac OS X treasure chest to fine-tune your Mac. Change the screenshot output format to PNG, TIFF or even PDF. Remove window shadows when taking screenshots. Disable the Dashboard to save memory. And let Finder show hidden files so you know what's on your system.
Secure erase
When you delete a file its data may not immediately be physically removed from your disk. Use MainMenu to securely and immediately remove files and their contents. MainMenu also offers you to securely erase all the free space on a disk, and so wipe contents from previously deleted files.
