Version: Ashampoo WinOptimizer Platinum 3
"The only utility you will ever need!"
Pros: Ashampoo WinOptimizer platinum does it all. It cleans and repairs your pc with just one click. It's quick and simple to use. It gets rid of useless junk in your registry and frees up valuable space on your pc, making your pc run faster and smoother. This new version has added a disk defragmenter which is much more efficient then the built in windows defragmenter. There is also an option to tweak your windows for even better perfomance. The internet cleaner works for all browsers, not just IE. I recommend you download the full function free trial and speed up your pc. 5 Stars and Two thumbs Up!

Version: Ashampoo WinOptimizer Platinum 3
Pros: The interface is really great! Besides being skinnable, the default skin makes the interface really intuitive. It has a lot of features, and I do mean a LOT. File shredder, disk defragger, file-extension associator, unnecessary file scanner, disk space analyzer, internet optimizer, all those and more.. all for just $50? Simply amazing. Those tools seperated would cost you $100 or more, but this suite cut it in half.. with the features doubled. It also frees a lot of disk space, it gave me an extra gig when I used it on my testing machine. It also doesn't take up much hard drive or RAM. Get this now!
Cons: The disk defragmenter needs a lot of work. It's badly slow when defragging, and it needs more illustrations or statistics when defragging.

Version: Ashampoo WinOptimizer Platinum 3
Pros: Fast registry scan .
Cons: Annoying and confusing configuration with splash screens and inability to switch between modules . Only the registry scan module has any value .
