Ignite PC 1.2.5: Smart Clean, Undo, and fourteen new tools

31 Oct 2026, 01:47 · TDJS95

This is the biggest update yet. One click now cleans the PC, every change the app makes can be undone, and there are fourteen new pages. The installer has a new look too.

One click, and automatic
- Smart Clean on the dashboard: temp files, caches and closed browsers' caches in one go, with a live progress bar and a 30-day record of what it freed.
- Recommended for you: the dashboard points out what needs attention (a filling drive, heavy startup, exposed privacy settings, System Restore off) with a Fix link for each.
- Trend cards for health score and free space over 90 days.
- Automatic memory trim when free memory runs low, and Game Boost can start by itself when a remembered game launches.
- Scheduler: every automation in one list with when it runs next.
- Ctrl+K opens a command palette: type a few letters to jump to any page or run an action.

Undo everything
- Activity & Undo (under Tools) lists every change Ignite PC made: tweaks, startup, services, privacy, network, context menu, switches, permissions. Select one and press Revert.
- Tweaks export the affected registry keys before each change.

Clean
- New cleaner categories: Slack, Epic Games, Adobe media caches, VS Code, Microsoft Store, Xbox app, NVIDIA and AMD shader caches, the previous Windows installation, and orphaned installer packages in Windows\Installer, which are often several gigabytes.
- Clutter: empty folders and shortcuts that point at nothing.
- Duplicates can match photos that look the same even when resized or re-saved.
- Disk Usage has a space map: bigger box, bigger folder, click to drill in.
- Large Files has an old-files-anywhere mode.
- The Uninstaller offers to remove what a program left behind once its own uninstaller finishes.

Speed
- Startup shows the measured impact of each program on the last boot and can delay one by two minutes instead of disabling it.
- Services presets: Gaming, Workstation, Laptop, Windows defaults.
- Performance: group processes by app, temperatures where Windows exposes them.
- Disk Health: TRIM status and one-click optimise. Boot Time names what slowed recent boots.
- New pages: Benchmark, Battery, Switches, Processes.

Protect
- New pages: Autoruns, App Permissions, Browser Extensions, Backups, Windows Update.
- Network: DNS benchmark, Wi-Fi report, and a one-click ad and tracker block list for the hosts file.
- Privacy score on the Privacy page.

Help
- Help & Support opens a ticket from inside the app (paid editions) with the system report attached.

How to update
If you already have Ignite PC installed, it will offer the update the next time it starts. Otherwise download the installer from the home page.
