Microsoft is now working on a new program called PC Manager, which is designed to improve the performance of the device, similar to CCleraner.

Here's What We Know

The beta version of Microsoft PC Manager includes storage management features and the ability to quickly complete tasks, as well as control which programs are launched with system startup.

Much of this functionality is already present in Windows, but it's all in one place. In particular, there is a browser protection section, which makes it much easier to set any browser as your default browser.

The Storage Manager feature allows you to manage programs and delete those that you don't use for a long period of time. A scan to clean up or a scan to identify large files on disk is also available. The Process Management feature is a simplified task manager where you can terminate processes that consume too many PC resources. Clicking the "Bost" button will start clearing temporary files to free up space.

A public beta version of the program is now available on Microsoft's official website for China, which may indicate the specific market for which it is designed. You need to have Windows 10, or newer, installed to run the program.
