FluentCleaner: alle weergawes en ouer weergawes

Caution
⚠️ Avoid fluentcleaner[.]org
fluentcleaner[.]org is NOT an official FluentCleaner website and is not operated, maintained, or endorsed by me.
I strongly recommend not downloading or installing anything from that site.
There is only ONE official source for FluentCleaner:
https://github.com/builtbybel/FluentCleaner
If another website claims to provide an "official" FluentCleaner download, installer, build, or mirror, it isn't coming from me.
Classic refined it. Modern inherited it
The last releases focused heavily on polishing FluentCleaner Classic and strengthening its cleaning engine. After proving these improvements in daily use, the most important changes have now made their way into the Modern edition as well.
Both editions now benefit from faster excluded-path handling, complete registry exclusions, safer cleaning behavior, and the expanded database with 4,075 cleaning entries
Whats new in v1.12?
FluentCleaner Modern

- [Improved] Protected registry branches remain intact even when a parent key is cleaned
- [Improved] Recursive scans now skip fully excluded directory trees instead of scanning and filtering them afterward
- [Improved] Added a registry exclusion example to the global exclusions settings

- Added 367 new definitions and removed or replaced 13 obsolete entries

Credits to the Winapp2 community for the extensive upstream work
FluentCleaner Classic
- [Improved] Recursive scans now skip fully excluded directory trees instead of scanning and filtering them afterward, making analysis noticeably faster when large folders are excluded (#130)
- [Added] A comprehensive FluentCleaner Classic User Guide covering first steps, cleaning databases, exclusions, Custom Cleaners, Rule Lab, portable mode, scheduling, localization, safety, troubleshooting, and technical details
- [Info] Many sections also apply to the Modern edition, as both versions share the same FluentCleaner.Core parser, cleaning engine, Winapp2 databases, and exclusion logic
- [Added] Optional local supporter recognition. Supporters can add a name or alias and appear as a Classic Supporter in the About page. The status is stored locally in supporter.json, no account, telemetry, or payment verification involved
