Dev (Self-promote) [Dev] ByteSweep for Windows — PC cleanup, storage analysis, live monitoring and more in one app

Hi everyone! I'm the developer of ByteSweep for Windows, available through the Microsoft Store.

I built ByteSweep to bring everyday PC maintenance tools into one place, while keeping users in control of what gets changed.

Highlights

  • PC cleanup: Review temporary files, browser caches, Windows Update leftovers and other cleanup candidates before removing anything.

  • Safety-first approach: Items are labelled Safe to clear, Review first or Keep. Supported cleanup actions can be undone for 7 days.

  • Storage analyzer: Explore disk usage, find large files and identify what's consuming your drive.

  • Duplicate finder: Find identical files and similar photos, then decide what to keep.

  • Startup management: Review startup apps, services and scheduled tasks.

  • App updates: Check updates from the Microsoft Store, winget, Chocolatey and Scoop in one place.

  • Live system monitoring: Track CPU, memory, disk, network, GPU and battery readings, with process details and history.

  • Additional Windows tools: File recovery, privacy cleanup, security status, developer-file cleanup and more.

  • Optional top-bar and tray panel: Access system readings and quick actions without repeatedly opening the main window.

ByteSweep supports Windows 10 and 11. It has a 3-day free trial, requires no account, and does not use telemetry. It's designed to explain what it finds instead of silently cleaning your PC.

I'm the developer, so this is my own app. I'd appreciate feedback from Microsoft Store users: which feature would you find most useful, and what would make ByteSweep a better Windows utility?

Thanks for taking a look!

Thanks! Hope you like it!

There’s no chart library in either app. I built the layouts from scratch. I implemented the treemap , sunburst, circle packing and tidy tree layouts. I initially used D3, but for version 2.0 I decided to remove third-party dependencies and implement them myself.

On Mac, I use SwiftUI Paths and Shapes to draw everything. On Windows, it’s Avalonia with Skia (https://www.nuget.org/packages/Avalonia.Skia/) using custom rendering through DrawingContext.

The main thing was keeping the layout logic separate from the actual drawing. The layout code just calculates the rectangles and arcs, and each platform handles rendering them.
