The Task pane

The Task pane displays links that allow you to start McAfee QuickClean’s

primary Tasks and Advanced Tasks. The Task pane also displays links to

Related Tasks; and McAfee links to start the home pages of any other current

McAfee product installed in your computer.

If you select an item in the work space of a wizard, cleaning, or analysis screen,

then the Details or properties describing the item you’ve selected displays in

the task pane. For tasks that require several steps to complete, a task Progress

indicator displays in the Task pane as well.

About Tasks

Starting a task is as easy as clicking its link. The Task list allows you to start

QuickClean’s major components. Although the tasks you can perform will

vary based upon your computer’s operating system and its configuration,

primary tasks include:

n Start QuickClean Lite.

QuickClean Lite scans your computer for files cluttering your hard disk.

Here you can choose to keep, delete, or shred the files.

n Find non-critical files to remove from your computer.

This task starts the SpaceMaker wizard. SpaceMaker helps you scan you

scan your computer for junk, non-critical, multimedia, and old data files.

SpaceMaker is the wizard that allows you to run any custom rules that

you created.

n Remove a program from your computer.

After updating the SmartLinks database, select the program you want to

remove from your computer. You can chose to backup the program,

where to save the backup archive, or delete it completely.

About Advanced Tasks

Advanced tasks are not necessarily complex in nature. If you are at ease with

adding and removing programs from your computer; or you have a good

comfort level with general file maintenance, you should not experience any

difficulties performing most of QuickClean’s Advanced tasks.

Similar to the primary Task list, the Advanced task list may vary depending

upon your version of Windows, its configuration, and other software that may

be installed in your computer.

For example:

1 2 ... 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 ... 49 50
