Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Ace Utilities presents a suite of familiar PC-managing tools with a very small system-resource footprint.
Smaller than 2.25MB, the tools are all integrated into a clean, familiar, easy-to-use interface with options at the top and down the left gutter. Click on one option and it opens a new window; finish using it and it closes down to the main tool menu.
The Registry Cleaner lets you decide which invalid keys to delete and whether to exclude removable media and CDs from examination. To free up disk space, Disk Analysis displays which files and folders take up the most room. The Cleaning tools find empty folders and files, temporary and unnecessary files, broken shortcuts, and duplicate files, and then remove them--permanently if need be. Not only can the program handle browser tracks, but plug-ins add support for popular apps such as Acrobat, Kazaa, and ICQ.
These robust and customizable features--combined with the access Ace Utilities provides to a few hidden Windows settings, and the option of using it in the Beginner or Expert mode--make the download suitable for every level of user.

Version: Ace Utilities 4.1
"Used it before, it was good until I found something better."
Pros: I used to love AceUtilities (now I use GlaryUtilities) however this product is small, and very useful. It scans for registry errors, temporary files, and wipes your disks to see how much free space you can accumulate. Although it doesn't have as many options as other system cleaners, this one does the job as good as others but at a price. It still does a good job cleaning, but there are options such as the duplicate file finder that should not be used unless you are an expert about your own pc.
Cons: The price of this product is kind of harsh, you can pay about $20 more and find another product that does something similar with about 50 times more options. It constantly updates so you would have to keep buying a new version which is also very annoying (one reason why I don't use this product anymore) It also has a funny sound when you finish scanning or removing objects (although it could be disabled, I just thought they could use a better sound) Other than that, this product is recommended for new users to "system utilities" or cleaners.

"The best registry & junk cleaner out there"
Pros: All components work great. Cleans junk files well without disabling your system, like some other cleaners do. Well worth the money, and you get free updates forever after paying once. A much better deal than all the free cleaners available.
