ExtremeCleaner is an essential tool for managing disk space usage. It goes beyond simple cache clearing to identify other space-hungry items: large AI models (Ollama, LM Studio, Hugging Face / Whisper voice and image generators), developer and IDE caches (VS Code, Visual Studio, JetBrains, npm, pip, gradle), old game saves and Minecraft worlds, forgotten downloads and videos, virtual machine images, email databases, call recordings, Spotify and video editor caches, and outdated software versions.

It features three tabs: safe cleanup (moving files to the Recycle Bin), files for manual review, and system locations (hibernation, WinSxS, restore points, update caches) — with instructions on how to reduce their size if desired. Each item is explained: what it is and whether it is safe to remove.

If you have a small SSD that is constantly running out of space, this tool identifies what can be safely removed and shows exactly where your storage is going. github.com/AIgrator/ExtremeClean
