CleanMyMac 5.2.4 Multilingual macOS
Although, usually, installing and uninstalling apps on a Mac is reduced to simple drag and drop actions (to the Applications folder or to the Trash, respectively), there still are things that happen in the background.
Moreover, most apps will place additional files and folders which are required for them to work properly in the Library directory, but also in other locations on your Mac.
Unfortunately, these items are left behind when you remove the app: since there are no longer used, they unnecessarily take up space, and even slow down you Mac’s performance.
CleanMyMac X is an user friendly Mac app that comes with a stylish design and helps you detect the junk files, but also user and system cache / log files, broken preferences or login items, apps that have universal binaries (you can remove the executable that is not suitable for your architecture), language files (you can keep only the one you actually employ).
CleanMyMac X can find large and old files that you have not used in a long time, various extensions installed on your Mac, and can help you clean up your iPhoto Library.
The CleanMyMac X Uninstaller function detects all the applications installed on your Mac, but also the files associated with a certain installation. As a result, if you delete and app using CleanMyMac X, you can make sure that no junk files are left behind.
Last but not least, CleanMyMac X is able to identify all the plug-ins, widgets, and Preferences panes installed on your Mac. The items are organized by type (Contacts, Dictionaries, iTunes, Login items, QuickLook plug-ins, and more) and you can easily choose to remove the ones that you do not need.
In addition to removing unnecessary files from your system, the app can also find and eliminate potentially dangerous ones. It can scan for malware and remove it, as well as keep your Mac safe in the future.
Moreover, the application enables you to ensure your private information does not fall into the wrong hands. It can remove browsing traces from all popular browsers, as well as clear chat data from apps like Skype and Messages.
Finding your way around the CleanMyMac X user interface is not too hard due to its streamlined interface that provides access to all functions via the main window.
However, note that all the files that will be removed must be selected by the user: make sure that you actually want to delete them because, if you send essential items to the Trash, you might render your Mac unusable.

De momento bien!!! También es cierto que esta App comienza a fallar en unas semanas. Veremos a ver. Le doy un voto de confianza.
So far good!! It is also true that this App begins to fail in a few weeks. We’ll see. I give him a vote of confidence.

I returned to before version. This one can’t trash when cleaning some small files in the Library folder when the App has full disk access.

I have a new login item “MSJ” after installation. What is it?
September 8, 2025 2:19 pm
Comment cracker?

MSJ on your Mac isn’t malware — it’s just CleanMyMac 5’s background agent, labeled oddly. You can keep it, disable its background items, or uninstall CleanMyMac if you don’t want it running at all.

I block the host of this program, because at a certain point it says that it is an illegal version.
September 26, 2025 9:08 am
I downloaded and ran CleanMyMac, but it displayed a message stating:
“Your copy of CleanMyMac is illegal and cracked. Using pirated software is unsafe and unfair. Get an official license at 50% off.”
I uninstalled it using AppCleaner and repeated the process. Before running the app again, I blocked its network access with Radio Silence. After that, it worked properly. A brief “Unlock full version” message appeared but quickly disappeared. It seems to be working fine now, but time will tell.
To avoid issues, block the app’s network access using a simple tool like Radio Silence.
