Reviewed by: CNET Staff
There's no magic in this flawed system cleaning tool except for the way it makes files disappear before your eyes. Ashampoo Magical Optimizer's very basic interface contains quick buttons to the program's options. Users can choose either the Automatic Optimization or the slightly safer Manual Optimization.
There are dozens of programs that clean the Windows Registry, browser cache folders, and system temp folders. Before deleting files, the best will back up the Registry first and allow you to select which files you want to delete. Ashampoo Magical Optimizer offers neither of those options. The Automatic Optimization flies through your system deleting files it deems no longer needed. Unfortunately, users are given no opportunity to deselect items before they're deleted. The manual method offers slightly more user control over the process. Instead of running all three optimizers one after another, you select which cleaner to implement. The program still identifies and deletes files without user interaction.
A secondary program allows users to schedule the primary program to automatically optimize all three areas. The short 10-day demo program offers a simple all-in-one cleaning approach that may be enticing to the novice, but all users should be extra careful using a program with so few safety features.

If not maintained, computer performance significantly deteriorates over time. Thankfully, Ashampoo Magical Optimizer can reclaim this lost performance.

In spite of its complicated work, Ashampoo Magical Optimizer is especially easy to use. In only a few minutes time, Ashampoo Magical Optimizer removes stagnant and unnecessary files from the hard drive, deletes Internet tracks (thereby insuring privacy), and the registry is streamlined by erasing invalid and orphaned entries.

Version: Ashampoo Magical Optimizer 1.10
"Another excellant product from a well trusted publisher"
Pros: Ashampoo Magical Optimizer is simple to use, only a single click is needed begin cleaning. There are three different cleaning modes:
- Internet Cleaner: wipes out online tracks instantly
- Drive Cleaner: cleans your hard disc of redundant and unecessary files
- Registry Cleaner: streamlines the registry.
You can also do manual starts of individual cleaning modules and make backups of deleted files. It also shows your
statitistical history, which shows what files were deleted and when. Updates can be downloaded via the Internet. Try the 30 day free trial and reclaim lost power and clean your pc. I recommend you try this product and give it 5 stars and two thumbs up!
