MacPaw:

Hey Mac users, we’ve got an app premiere for you. Our new baby, CleanMyMac X has just been born. Why calling it X? Firstly, because this year it’s our 10th anniversary and the X is our tribute to that and the first CleanMyMac created by Oleksandr Kosovan back in 2008. Next up, we believe this version is much more than another numerical in the line — it is X times better.

In general, I hate these kinds of apps. I simply don’t trust them to do it properly or to not screw up my system. But, I’ll tell you a story.

I’ve been having an issue with one of my external drives for a month. It’s not a crucial thing. Just annoying. Ran Disk Utility First Aid on the drive and “nothing was found”. This AM, I did a full backup of my system (told you I don’t trust these apps) then I ran CleanMyMac X. It solved the problem immediately as well as doing all the other cool things CleanMyMac does. This is not a review of the product (I haven’t put it through its paces yet) but I like the look and UI of the app as well as the ease of use through MacPaw’s Setapp,
