CNET Editors' review
All it takes it a single visit to a compromised Web site to snare a nasty piece of malware or to pick up cookies that track your every browsing move. And there's nothing worse than a computer that is bogged down so much that it impedes your ability to work or play games. Advanced Systemcare aims to remedy whatever ails your computer by not only cleaning up junk files, malware, and invalid registry entries, but by giving your computer a boost to optimize your PC experience.
Advanced Systemcare's interface is broken down into four maintenance categories so as to not overwhelm you: Quick Care, Deep Care, Toolbox, and Turbo Boost. We started with Quick Care and with the Quick Malware Removal feature. We clicked Scan and the program quickly went to work and came back with no issues. (In all fairness, we regularly run full PC scans using our own security software, so we didn't expect the program to find anything here.) Next up to bat was the Registry Fix, which came back with a whopping 597 problems. We found this a little fishy since we had just tested a very reputable registry cleaner that had found and fixed all of our registry issues. Still, we went through the process of checking and unchecking which files we wanted the program to fix. Once we clicked the Repair Now option, the program went to work and the problem registry entries were remedied in a matter of seconds. The Deep Care feature takes it all a step further by offering deeper scans, as well as a Registry Defrag option, which we successfully used to tidy up our registry. We were a little miffed that the program didn't ask us if we wanted to back up our registry before making any changes. However, we'll give it a slight pass because the program does include a Rescue feature that lets you undo any registry changes, and offers the ability to create a restore point, which we recommend you do before you touch your registry. Our final stop on the tour was the Turbo Boost feature. From there, we selected Work Mode, which let us manually disable unnecessary services and background applications. We were skeptical of it actually doing anything to speed up our computer, but we have to admit that we did notice a slight difference in our computer's speed, and for the better. The program does include an online help guide, though we don't think you'll need it for handling basic cleaning tasks.
Pay close attention while installing Advanced Systemcare because it'll install an IObit toolbar if you don't decline. The program also leaves a folder behind after uninstallation. Still, we recommend it as a worthwhile program for keeping your system running on all cylinders.

"Junk;redundant;broken or missing elements. Avoid."
Version: Advanced SystemCare 6.2.0.254
Pros
Hmm. ... Can't think of any.
Cons
As outlined in summary: redundant (and therefore annoying in the face of other programs that actually do something). Hard to identify and then try to fix broken program elements; this would have taken forever if I hadn't just scrapped the whole thing. Plus, they want money to actually do the job properly, (or so they promise).

"Great Product to clean and help fix your computer!"
Version: Advanced SystemCare 6.2.0.254
Pros
-Thorough cleaning
-Fixes mosts bugs
-Speeds up your PC
-Fast & effective Customer Support
-Easy to use (user-friendly)
-Big bang for your buckCons
-Have to go to websites to update
Summary
I have been using ASC personally for a few years. One company I work with started using the free version a year or so ago and has now switched to the Pro version. I have recommended this program, to lots of people, as a good program to help fix issues & bugs on your computer, even to speed it up. While it might not help or get everything it is very effective. It's free to try and use, if you don't like it, uninstall it.

Cons

"Free program is hard to keep free"
Version: Advanced SystemCare 6.2.0.254
Pros
It is literally the best free program to-date that I have found to keep a windows computer free of malware. It has found and removed many threats that Norton and McAfee don't find!
Cons
It adds what I consider malware to your system if you aren't careful during the install process. Stuff like search toolbars for internet browsers, "free trial" programs and their newest invention to get users to upgrade to ASC Ultimate.
The program needs to be updated periodically and directs you back to download.com or cnet to get the update (which can be confusing in itself to sort through the ads). The "update" process is again riddled with "optional" boxes to check off.Summary
IObit freeware programs in general have become annoying and mostly broken unless you upgrade to the pay version. During install (and some updates) you have to block all kinds of toolbars, and "free trials". Anyone not familiar with such tactics would get hosed or think they were cancelling the install. I guess there is no more free lunch.

"Great service - many found errors Ultimate edition"
Version: Advanced SystemCare 6.2.0.254
Pros
I ordered the wrong version. After an e-mail this was corrected fast and in a more than satisfying way.
The program runs fast and finds many errors and fixes them quickly.Cons
Running the program after a short time and without much activity results in again many found errors?
Is this real?? -

"Good But I don't trust"
Version: Advanced SystemCare 6.2.0.254
Pros
It's a good program no doubt but I don't trust them as they caught up stealing malwarebytes information.
Cons
It's a good program no doubt but I don't trust them as they caught up stealing malwarebytes information.
Summary
It's a good program no doubt but I don't trust them as they caught up stealing malwarebytes information.

"Simple to load, use and understand."
Version: Advanced SystemCare 6.2.0.254
Pros
Inexpensive and light weight. Love the disk management and registry features. Best part is no system faults. Excellent customer service.
Cons
Seems to slow down system shut down a little.
Summary
I am a very satisfied customer. I have looked at and used several products over the years to protect and simplify my internet and pc environment. System Care has has performed well and without much of the interference I experienced with other more well products.

"Nice product, strange renewal process"
Version: Advanced SystemCare 6.2.0.254
Pros
- Seems and feels efficient
- Does not need to reinstall Windows 7 for almost 2 years
- Overall computer speed remains the same when I freshly installed the system thanks to this softwareCons
- Does not remove every junk from registry after uninstalling a program
- Beware of renewal system: it can turn automatic (luckily you can turn it off): it is never a good feature, and if you won/bought several units of this program, but you want to renew only 1 units, you just can not buy it with the link they provided in their reminder email.
- Some advertisemnets still remains inside the program regardless of the Pro version.Summary
Overall this is a good product, it is worth it's money, and the support also not bad, they are pretty fast if you got the Pro version of any of their programs.
