Admin broker, lighter tray, safer actions
The biggest change under the hood since launch is that eclean no longer runs its whole UI as administrator. A reviewed broker service carries the privileged work instead, and startup, the tray, and background usage all benefit.
Biggest changes
- Reworked administrator privileges. eclean now opens as a normal desktop app, with admin-only Windows actions run through a broker service. This fixes startup without making the whole UI run as administrator.
- Reduced background usage when eclean is closed to the tray, by shutting down the WebView instance while the window is closed.
- Fixed tray reopening. Reopening eclean from the tray creates a fresh window, so you no longer need to fully quit the app to get it back.
- Improved launch at login by replacing the old elevated scheduled task with a normal per-user startup entry.
- Routed protected Optimizer, Booster, Junk Cleaner cleanup, and Windows Fixer actions through reviewed broker commands instead of broad app-wide elevation.
Minor changes
- Optimizer reverts restore the exact previous registry values where possible, and unsafe Windows 10 update targets are blocked on unsupported services.
- Booster handles failed Scheduled Task changes correctly, so switches return to the right state when an action fails.
- Cleaner protected cleanup uses scan receipts and item IDs, cleaning approved protected locations while blocking unsafe targets.
- Uninstaller detects MSI apps without normal uninstall strings, including VMware-style entries, and MSI monitoring finishes when Windows Installer confirms removal.
- Your PC storage metrics work better, AMD GPU architecture detection is more accurate, and Sensors update more consistently.
- Added the new Motion setting (System, On, Off) and capped UI scale at 100% to prevent broken layouts.
- Improved refresh busy states, Atlas mode, charts, modals, loading states, pricing copy, subscription checkout, OAuth callback handling, and external auth links.
