⚠️ This project has been renamed and moved

→ github.com/aviral2552/scrubmac

cleanmymac (2018–2026) is now scrubmac as of v3.0.0 — renamed to end the collision and confusion with MacPaw's unrelated commercial products of the same name, including their official cleanmymac-cli, which claims the bin/cleanmymac name in Homebrew.

This repository is an archived tombstone: it preserves the full pre-rename history and the final 2.x releases so existing installs keep working, but it receives no updates. All development, issues, and releases live at the new home.

Migrate

Homebrew users — the formula rename is automatic:

brew update && brew upgrade

Git installs — re-run the installer from the new repo (your config, disabled list, and custom cleaners migrate automatically):

git clone https://github.com/aviral2552/scrubmac.git && cd scrubmac && ./install.sh

Crontabs and aliases — update cleanmymac to scrubmac. A transitional shim keeps old paths working through v3, and is removed in v4.

Note for old clones

cleanmymac update in a pre-rename clone now reports that the project has moved instead of pulling — this repository is frozen. If your clone's remote still points here, you are on the final 2.x forever; migrate with the two lines above.
