📊 Post-Optimization Report

Once the script finishes, you'll see:

• 📏 Space Reclaimed — exactly how much storage was freed (in MB or GB)
• ⚠️ Warning Count — how many operations had issues (if any)
• ⏱️ System Uptime — how long since your last reboot
• 📄 Full Log — saved to Cleanup_Report.txt on your Desktop

⚠️ Note: Browsers (Chrome/Edge) will be closed during Stage 5 to ensure a deep cache clean. Save your work before running!

⚠️ Note: Windows Explorer will briefly restart during Stage 8 to clear locked thumbnail/icon cache files. Your taskbar will disappear for a moment — this is normal.
