Version: Ashampoo WinOptimizer Platinum 3.05
Pros: Excellent registry tool &
not only .
Works fast & precise , it won't find false
positive . Perfectly compatibile with WINDOWS OS(
just like quite all Ashampoo softwares) , it
won't disrupt any other process running .
Good even concerning RAM usage : not few RAM needed but
also not too much , considring its efficient work .
It's not lightweight(over 26Mbytes) ,
comparing to other tools(Winaso 6Mbytes-Ccleaner 1.36Mbytes) ,
this is for big number of features in it .
1-click-optimization + 4 categories in main window :
1 Cleaning tools (drive cleaner-reg cleaner-internet cleaner)
2 Tuning tools (startup tuner-ip spam blocker-windows function)
3 File tools (diskspace explorer-file wiper-
file splitter & joiner)
4 Tweaking tools (system info-tweaking-defrag)
Updates & detailed informations in help service .
Features allow to personalize even WINDOWS OS .
Really effective tool but not so easy to use (except
for 1-click-optimization) .
I strongly recommend to try .
Cons: After closing it will minimize to startup bar(...boring...) . Expansive

Version: Ashampoo WinOptimizer Platinum 3.05
"A lot of functions to optimize your computer in one software! Nice interface!"
Pros: Ashampoo makes high quality softwares. This is one of those. In one click you will optimize the whole system and then, automatically, in one sweep, run drive cleaner, registry cleaner and internet cleaner. The drive cleaner will sweep the drive more throughly than many other "drive cleaners". Look in the recycle bin after a sweep, and you will find a lot of redundant files! With this package you can easily reset and also change Windows settings, which are otherwise difficult to do. I for instance, sit alone with my laptop and it was really silly to "log in" every time I started Windows. That I, very easily, changed with this program! You can manage some of Windows own tuning tools. That is, also, easier to do with this software, because you have those tuning tools in one place! You have a spam blocker and a start up tuner, that is, you can edit which program you allow Windows to start up with. You can get information about your computer (disk space usage), wipe files that can not be recoverd and split files and then join them for easier transportation through the internet, or other use. The program lets you to quickly defragment your hard drive. A lot of functions that will make your computer in good shape! The price is therefore okey and the program is really fantastic!

Cons: I do not see any!

Version: Ashampoo WinOptimizer Platinum 3.05
"This product delivers what it promises. Easy to use, speedy and accurate."
Pros: I found the setup clear and easy to follow. No guessing what to do next. It did what it was designed to do but still allowing you to make choices. WinOptimizer cleaned out my junk in files & folder, then cleaned my registry, my internet and defragged my registry. The list goes on. I compared this product to System Optimizer and System Mechanic and it was on par with one and surpassed the other. I recommend it with 5 stars.
