Scheduled Maintenance

Set TuneBit to clean and optimize on autopilot — weekly, monthly, or whenever you want.

What it does

Hand maintenance to TuneBit and forget about it. Pick the tasks you want run automatically, a frequency (daily/weekly/monthly), a time, and TuneBit registers a Windows Task Scheduler job that runs silently in the background. Each run generates a log so you can see what happened after the fact.

Status strip

At the top of the page, a colored dot shows the current state:

Green: Active. A schedule is registered and will fire at the configured time.
Red: Inactive. No schedule has been set up yet.

The Last Run and Next Run timestamps appear beside the status.

Choosing tasks

The checklist in the middle of the page lets you pick which operations run as part of each maintenance cycle. Typical choices include:

Junk file cleanup (Windows temp, browser caches, logs).
Registry scan & clean.
Disk optimization (defrag HDDs, TRIM SSDs).
System file integrity check (SFC).
Windows Update check.
System health rescan.
Create a system restore point.

Tick the ones you want. The tasks you leave unchecked will not run — maintenance is a menu, not a single button.

Schedule configuration

Frequency

Daily, Weekly, or Monthly. Weekly is the sweet spot for most people — often enough that nothing builds up, infrequent enough that you don't notice it.

Day & Time

For weekly schedules, pick a day (default: Sunday). Set a time like 03:00 in 24-hour format. Middle-of-the-night is best — your PC is likely idle.

Only run when on AC power

Laptop-friendly. Prevents maintenance from draining battery when you're unplugged and don't expect it.

Run missed task on next startup

If your PC was off at 03:00 Sunday, the job is skipped by default. Tick this and Windows will run it the next time you boot instead.

Show notification when complete

A Windows toast pops up after each run summarizing what was done. Helpful when you're still building trust that it's working; you can turn this off once you're comfortable.

How to use it

Go to Other → Scheduled Maintenance.
Tick the tasks you want run automatically.
Pick a frequency, day, and time.
Toggle AC-only / missed-run / notification behavior to your taste.
Click Save Schedule. The status dot will turn green and the Next Run timestamp will appear.
Click Run Now any time you want to test that the schedule works without waiting.
The Recent Logs list at the bottom keeps a record of each run — click an entry and then View Log to read it.

Stopping the schedule

Click Disable Schedule to remove the Windows Task Scheduler entry. Tasks will no longer run automatically. Your task checklist and time preferences are preserved, so you can re-enable later with a click.

Best-practice weekly schedule: Sunday 03:00, on AC power only, run missed task on startup, notifications on at first. Tick Junk Cleaner, Registry Scanner, Disk Optimizer, and Create Restore Point. That's a "set it and forget it" configuration that keeps most PCs healthy with no manual intervention.

Don't run heavy tasks mid-day. SFC scans and disk defrags are I/O-intensive and can make your PC feel sluggish while they run. If your schedule accidentally fires at 2 PM it'll feel like the PC is broken for 20 minutes. Keep overnights for this, or configure for when you're asleep / away.
