What's New - v26.06.02

🧩 Little brother just dropped: FluentTweaker
Same philosophy;transparent, modern, open-source, WinUI 3.
Except this one tweaks Windows instead of cleaning it.
If you enjoy dangerously reorganizing Windows internals at 2am, say hi 👀

Added

• Localization / Globalization

  • Full German (de-DE) translation (drafted with a little AI help, finished by hand);
    UI only; database content such as Winapp2.ini entries is not affected
  • Language switcher in Settings > Appearance; supports System default and all bundled languages
  • Translator-credit string per language file (LblTranslatorCredit): each
    translator can immortalize themselves with name and optional website; hidden
    automatically in languages where the field is left empty
  • \n escape sequences in .resw values render as real line breaks

• Settings - Export / Import

  • Export all settings to a .json file via file-save picker
  • Import settings from a .json file via file-open picker; UI refreshes
    immediately after import

• Portable mode

  • Dropping a settings.json next to the executable activates portable mode;
    a banner in Settings > Backup confirms the active storage location

Fixed

• AI-explanation dialog (and two other code-created ContentDialog instances)
  ignored the app theme and always opened in light mode
• /AUTO command skipped all Custom Cleaners and did not run them as part of the automated cleaning pass #57

Only English and German are bundled right now.
To add your language:

Not required for the cleaner and completely independent.

❤️ FluentCleaner is donation-supported.
Im building FluentCleaner as a donation-supported project. Learning WinUI 3 and turning this into a real app was definitely not painless, but it has been a lot of fun too.
If you like the project and want to support future releases, donations really help keep it going
