Is there a CleanMyMac for Windows?
No. CleanMyMac is a Mac app (macOS 11 or later). MacPaw's Windows app, CleanMy PC, was discontinued on 22 April 2025 — MacPaw stopped its support, distribution and updates that day.
Short answer
There is no current Windows version of CleanMyMac from MacPaw. If you want the same kind of all-in-one cleaner on Windows, look at the PC cleaners on our CCleaner alternative page. CrashWhy is not a cleaner: it covers one job CleanMyMac's feature list doesn't — telling you why your Windows PC crashed, shut off or restarted.
CleanMyMac's jobs, and what CrashWhy does
| CleanMyMac feature (official list) | CrashWhy on Windows |
|---|---|
| Smart Care — one scan for cleanup, threats, speed and updates | Partly — one dashboard for crashes, restarts, security status and what is slowing the PC; it does not clean or update apps |
| Cleanup (system junk) | No |
| Protection (malware removal) | No removal — shows Microsoft Defender status, unwanted-app blocking and the last scan |
| Performance (memory and CPU, login items) | Yes for watching — live CPU, memory, disk, top processes, hung windows and startup programs, with actions you confirm |
| Applications (uninstall, update apps) | No |
| Space Lens, duplicates, cloud cleanup | No |
| Why the computer crashed or restarted | Yes — this is what CrashWhy is for (blue screens, shutdowns with no blue screen, Windows Update restarts) |
| Price | CrashWhy: free; Pro $19 one-time for 3 PCs. CleanMyMac: “starting at $3.33/month” on its official page |
