Free closed-source Windows tweaking and maintenance utility by solo Romanian developer Bogdan Pătrăucean: one WinUI 3 interface for debloat and app uninstall (including Edge via EU Digital Markets Act rules), junk and browser cleanup, startup/service management, repair tools (DISM/SFC), privacy and ads settings, hidden system tweaks, and live hardware stats. Built over ~1.5 years before the April 2023 Microsoft Store launch and still updated regularly (2.6.71.0, August 2026).
Solo developer Bogdan Pătrăucean (Cluj-Napoca, Romania; .NET engineer at Accesa). Frequent solo updates since April 2023.

Privacy policy (updated 2025-09-22): 'This application doesn't store, collect, use or share any personal/analytics data'; settings stay local; crash/error reports via Azure Application Insights are optional and configurable in Settings; internet is used only for network statistics, DISM repair, system updates, and error reporting
FAQ: 'The app requires administrator rights'; MS Store manifest declares runFullTrust plus allowElevation, packageQuery, packageManagement, appDiagnostics, and unvirtualizedResources
Deliberately closed source per FAQ (cites AI-training opt-out and impersonation mitigation); the only public GitHub repo, 'about', holds the docs/site, not app source
Store-distributed MSIX signed through Microsoft; offline sideload documented via 'winget download'
No dedicated security contact found; feedback goes through the in-app form
Windows Central's launch coverage: 'It holds a confusingly similar title to Microsoft's PowerToys, the open-source app providing a different collection of equally valuable tools.'
Research notes
Solo-dev project: ~1.5 years of evening work by Bogdan Pătrăucean (.NET engineer at Accesa, Cluj-Napoca, Romania) before the April 2023 Store launch; per Windows Central it was his only shipping app at launch, and the changelog still runs monthly (2.6.71.0, Aug 2026).
Deliberately closed source and says why: the FAQ argues open source means community management overhead, AI-training leakage ('I refuse to let Microsoft, OpenAI, or any other company steal my work without permission for a profit'), and impersonation risk - a rare launch-era app that explains the choice instead of leaving it implicit.
Documented impersonation: the author ran his own r/Windows11 exposé 'I discovered a large scale operation' on an attacker cloning ~70 popular Windows apps into malware-serving 'pro version' GitHub repos; lookalikes still surface (github.com/Wintoys-Performance-Settings, created Sep 2026 - unrelated squatter).
Requires administrator rights to run and can disable services and remove system apps; the FAQ documents Edge uninstall via EU Digital Markets Act rules.
Name collision with Microsoft's open-source PowerToys, flagged by Windows Central's launch coverage (Apr 26, 2023).
Author's own launch post on LinkedIn, six days after the Store release date - the earliest author promotion found (no reddit self-promotion located).
