CNET editors' review
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 5.1
"Good but will be better with more optimizing functions"
Pros: - Registry cleaning covers many items in Windows registry and could find more errors.
- Support registry backup and restore
- History cleaning is also good
- Enable users to create a schedulerCons: - Doesn't show the severity of registy errors
- Scanning areas still tend to be not enough
- No system optimization availableSummary: Compared to most registry cleaners, Ace utilities is good, but it is not good enough. Fairly speaking, it is a quite nice registry cleaning utility, but not enough for optimize system performance and speed.

Version: Ace Utilities 5.1
"AWESOME!!!!!!! AMAZING!!!!! SPECTACULAR!!"
Pros: The powerful registry cleaner.
Cons: ...weak interface and lack of many features.
Also I still have 14 days left in the trial but i can't use it anymore. All because I changed the clock to 2012. :(Summary: I use it everyday everytime I boot up because it is powerful. At first I was pretty nervous in tryin this out but I love it! I just wish I had money to buy it.
