Source available, with restrictions
Pearcleaner adds Commons Clause to Apache 2.0. Its license restricts selling the software, including certain hosting, support, or consulting services whose value comes substantially from it. These additional terms mean it is source available rather than open source.
Read the licenseAbout Pearcleaner
Pearcleaner helps review installed applications, associated support files, and remnants left by previously removed software. Its file lists make it possible to inspect what will be removed before committing to a cleanup.
Use the official GitHub releases for downloads and review each deletion selection. The code is published, but the additional Commons Clause restriction means this listing is classified as source available.
