Mole for Windows

Deep clean and optimize your PC.

Changelog

1. Previews change nothing: mo uninstall --dry-run and mo purge --dry-run now only report what would happen; before, a preview with MOLE_DRY_RUN=1 still ran each app's uninstaller.
2. Safe next to Mole for Windows: The CLI now installs into %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\mole-cli, and mo remove keeps the Mole for Windows app's license, settings, backups and Start menu entry instead of deleting the shared folder.
3. Linked folders stay intact: A node_modules holding pnpm or npm link junctions is removed as links, so the files they point to are never touched.
4. Signed and verified: Every script and executable is code-signed, and the analyze and status tools are only used when they match the release checksums.
5. Same look as the macOS CLI: mo shows the Mole logo with https://mole.fit/windows, the same five-command menu with M for help, V for version and Q to quit, and mo --help and mo --version match macOS.
6. Help and options behave: mo <command> --help works for every command, unknown options are refused instead of running the command, and mo remove asks before removing.
7. Clean output adds up: mo clean no longer prints internal tables, the dry run shows the space it would reclaim with every path in clean-list.txt, error reports and memory dumps are counted once, and ~/.gitconfig.lock is left alone.

更新日志

1. 预览不会再动任何东西：mo uninstall --dry-run 和 mo purge --dry-run 现在只列出会发生什么，之前用 MOLE_DRY_RUN=1 预览卸载时，仍然会真的去运行每个 App 自己的卸载程序。
2. 和 Mole for Windows 装在同一台电脑也安全：CLI 改装到 %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\mole-cli，mo remove 会保留 Mole for Windows 的授权、设置、备份和开始菜单入口，不再把共用的文件夹整个删掉。
3. 链接过去的文件夹不会被误删：pnpm 或 npm link 生成的 node_modules 里有 junction 时，只删除链接本身，链接指向的原始文件一个都不碰。
4. 签名并校验：所有脚本和可执行文件都做了代码签名，analyze 和 status 下载后必须和发布页的校验和一致才会使用。
5. 和 macOS 版长得一样：输入 mo 会显示 Mole 的 logo 和 https://mole.fit/windows，菜单同样是五个命令，按 M 看帮助、V 看版本、Q 退出，mo --help 和 mo --version 也和 macOS 一致。
6. 帮助和参数都能正常用：每个命令的 mo <命令> --help 都能显示帮助，不认识的参数会直接拒绝，不再带着它去执行命令，mo remove 也会先问一句再删。
7. 清理结果对得上：mo clean 不再打印内部表格，预览会给出能清理出的空间，并把每个路径写进 clean-list.txt，错误报告和内存转储只算一次，~/.gitconfig.lock 也不再删除。

Mole for Windows

If you would rather work in a window than a terminal, Mole for Windows covers cleaning, app removal and updates, startup items, disk analysis and live status, and shows everything before it deletes. The CLI stays free and open source.
