IMVU Cleaner

IMVU Cleaner is a utility for cleaning common IMVU related folders. It is the successor to my IMVU Cache Cleaner.

IMVU Cleaner is a complete re write of the Cache Cleaner in a proper programming language. With this re write comes a much safer tool and more features.

Features

  • Classic Client Cache Cleaning

    Deletes all of the classic client's cache files

    Over time the classic client can become slow as the cache builds up to several
    hundred megabytes or a few gigabytes. This can cause it to take longer to load the
    user's inventory, the shop and other places depending on the user's hardware.
  • Classic Client Log Cleaning

    Deletes the IMVU log files

    Log files can contain sensitive data such as chat history and account information. Over time multiple
    log files are created. Deleting them can protect your privacy and make it easier to find the relevant log files
    if necessary as they are generated when logging in and when a crash occurs.

  • Project Files Cleaning

    Deletes the files and folders in the project files directories

    When creating a product in Create Mode or IMVU Studio, the assets for the product get saved in the respective project folder. Assests includes textures,
    animations, poses, meshes, music, etc.

    By Default, the assets get saved to the projects directory located in my documents (on Windows). When a project
    is saved to a different location, remnants can still be left behind in the projects directory. This can cause the projects directory
    to fill up over time with useless folders if you do a lot of creating.

    Before running this option, it is advised to make sure you have backed up or moved your import project files somewhere else. If you store all your
    projects in the default location, do not use this feature.


Improvements

    • IMVU Cleaner only targets specific files and cannot delete anything it's not supposed to.
    • IMVU Cleaner will only perform actions if the user tells it too.
    • If IMVU Cleaner encounters an error that isn't caught by my error detection, it simply crashes instead of throwing a fit and deleting things it wasn't supposed to.
    • IMVU Cleaner will ask for confirmation before deleting project files.

Question, does this also work on IMVU Beta too?

Not currently. I do not use IMVU Beta so I do not have any knowledge of where it stores the cache or other files that can be deleted.

If you or anyone else can provide me with information on where it stores the cache, log files, etc.. I can add support for it.

The IMVU Cleaner was built in a way where adding a new cleaning module to it is trivial so I can make it support pretty much anything.

I'll see what I can do. I know it's %app data somewhere on W 11. *shuffles off* because i get sick and tired of playing with beta for all the live rooms, and the cache on PC going bonkers. Would also be nice to possiblly?? have an app for mobile android/ios that dumps cache from the phone too.. but i know that's a LOT of work to ask for. But we can be ever hopeful! thank you for all you do!

Yes, this is a direct replacement for the old batch script. This is a better product as the original had developed a bug that caused it to delete files it wasn't supposed to.

The IMVU Cleaner on the other hand was written in a proper language witch not only prevents it from deleting your personal files but also can support more features.

The download link is at the bottom of the post. You use it the same exact way as the original. This one just has more options to pick from.
