CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This isn't the most feature-packed Windows-optimization utility, nor the most effective, but we found it one of the easiest to control. Advanced WindowsCare's simple interface offers two main options: Repair and Repair And Optimize. The former fixes Registry entries and cleans out your operating system. The latter does the same thing and tweaks Windows for maximum performance.
If you run into trouble, the Restoration option can return your system to its original configuration. The Advanced menu provides fine control over repairs and optimizations. On the downside, we noticed only one improvement on our test PC: a reduced amount of used RAM. Also, the program's brief descriptions of system problems may not satisfy seasoned users. And although the latest version of the app includes a help file, we wouldn't call it extensive.
Nevertheless, if your system is running sluggishly and you're considering reinstalling Windows, it wouldn't hurt to try this freeware package first.

"STOP--your search for HELP is over!"
Pros: This totally FREE utility will repair all of your problems. Advanced Windows Care from the guys at IObit completely repaired & optimized my XP. I have purchased other utilities but none solved all of my system problems. This free utility did!
*repairs registry
*solves "prefetch" problems
*optimizes system
*removes invalid DLL's
Plus a whole lot more!
I can not say enough great things about this utility. You must try it!
