BleachBit, the open source system cleaner, announces the public 0.9.0 beta which includes enhancements, bug fixes, and translation updates. Please help test.

These particular areas are a priority for testing:

Clean Thunderbird
In Google Chrome and Chromium, disable the setting for network prediction, close the browser, clean with BleachBit, restart the browser, and verify the setting has not changed.
Clean cache for Chromium and Google Chrome.
Edit bleachbit.ini and change "true" or "false" to some garbage value. Verify BleachBit starts (LP#799130)
Linux
- Under GNOME 3 (Fedora 15, Arch Linux, etc), clean System - Recent Documents. Verify the Recent Documents list is empty for GNOME and gedit.
- Under GNOME 3, set a custom wallaper, and then clean System - Cache. Then logout of GNOME, and get back in. Verify the wallpaper is OK.
- CentOS 6
Windows
- Start many system processes (50?) that can be seen in Task Manager, and clean any part of Firefox. Verify BleachBit does not freeze.
- Verify BleachBit starts in all combinations of these situations (especially UAC disabled with standard user):
  - Windows Vista or Windows 7
  - Administrator or standard user
  - UAC enabled or disabled
  - Answer YES or NO to the UAC
  - Portable mode or installed
  - BleachBit.exe on a network drive, removable drive (USB), or hard drive (C:\)
