Version: Glary Utilities 2.5.1
"For over a month I've used these Utilities & am very happy"
Pros: After about 6 weeks, these utilities have kept my system clean & trouble free, I've bought some other programs which I installed & they crashed (BSD?) my XP system on a regular basis (gave me a chance to exercise the XP restore function) & didn't find some of the things that Glary did - uninstalled these "expensive" programs & am a very happy Glary user since.

Version: Glary Utilities 2.5.1
Pros: I am very leery of registry cleaners. CCleaner, which has such a wonderful reputation regularly eats the icons on my start-up menu, removes applications from Windows list and wants to ride me of file extensions for programs I use every day. So I approached the registry cleaner in Glary with a great deal of caution. It found over 700 problems and after diligently digging through them all I was able to get rid of most of the debris - with no glitches and no errors afterwards. I am very pleased. It then got rid of mega MB of temporary internet files that CCleaner left.
Besides, it gives easy access to Windows tools like SFC and CheckDisk, it provides a file splitter/joiner, a duplicate file finder and more. Glary provided access to information about the hungry programs loading at startup and I am now rid of them.
There are more utilities that are part of the program that I haven't tried yet, such as the memory optimizer, but if it never did any more than it has already done, I'd still be smiling.
Cons: Nothing to dislike.

"this and a few other cleaners are necessary"
Pros: Ccleaner, Eusing Free Registry Cleaner, and Clean Disk With One Click.
Each targets a different area.
