EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE

Eight tools that usually take eight apps.

Task Manager, an uninstaller, a disk analyzer and a RAM cleaner, rebuilt as one fast, focused app.

Processes

Live CPU and memory for every process. End one task or a whole process tree. Critical system processes are protected.

Services

Start, stop and change how Windows services launch. System services are flagged, so you know what you are touching.

Applications

Uninstall apps, then sweep up the leftover files and entries they leave behind. Nothing lingers.

Startup & tasks

Remove startup entries and scheduled tasks that launch behind your back. Microsoft's built-in tasks stay out of the way.

Optimizer

Boost RAM by trimming idle memory; run as Administrator to purge the standby list too. Clear junk files in one click.

Storage analyzer

Scan any drive or folder for the largest files and folders, and hunt down duplicate files wasting space.

Live performance

Real-time charts for processor, memory, network and graphics, plus full hardware specs on the dashboard.

Activity log

Every action is recorded as it happens, with a log file you can open any time to see exactly what changed.

SAFE BY DESIGN

Powerful, without the foot-guns.

A tool that can end processes and remove apps has to be careful. Task Reaper checks twice before it touches anything.

Protected system processes

Every destructive action is re-checked in the Rust backend. Processes Windows needs to run are refused, even if you ask.

Signed, verified updates

The app updates itself from GitHub Releases and checks each installer's SHA-256 hash and signature before running it.

Open source

Every line is on GitHub under the MIT license. Read it, build it yourself, or send a fix.

Nothing hidden

Confirmations before anything is removed, and an activity log of every action the app takes.
