Safeguard your PC in a quiet and reliable way.
It looks like Microsoft has joined the game of system cleaners in a way, but with Microsoft PC Mananger, you're essentially given shortcuts to tools that already exist on Windows.
In a tool which seems to be similar to programs like CCleaner, you're given a quick way to clear up disk space, remove browsing history (but just for Edge) and tweak which apps start up with Windows 10 or Windows 11.
Upon launching the Microsoft PC Manager, you're presented with some options such as Health check, storage management, process management and Startup apps. Within each section of the app, you can access tools which will help free up system resources. In other words, it's an alternative to using other Microsoft tools like virus scanning, Windows Explorer, process manager and msconfig.
With all of that said, the main audience of this program was the market in China with an English version of the program also available for elsewhere.
Although not groundbreaking, this program offers a quick and easy way to complete some tasks on Windows which was never made easy to do for most users on Windows. Therefore there's really no complaints about Microsoft PC Mananger with its official status as a Microsoft application for dealing with common issues affecting performance on Windows.
