"BAD BAD BAD"
Version: Magix PC Check & Tuning 2012 7.0.40123

Slowed my system way down.
Summary
Uninsulated! Waste of $5

"Not so sure about this product"
Version: Magix PC Check & Tuning 2012 7.0.40123
Pros
I don't really have an answer for this.
Cons
I purchased this a few weeks ago and have used it twice. Both times, after using the utility, I have had trouble with MS Office 2010, having to reinstall or repair. I don't know what is being flagged as unneeded, but it is sure taking out something. Also, it is constantly on patrol & pops up with notes about unneeded things but I can't see anyway to way to ignore it. Third, my computer has not seen any improvement in speed and start-up takes almost twice as long on cold or warm boot. I probably am not techie enough to really use it so this may not be a fair evaluation.
Summary
I don't seem to have the required level of knowledge to pick and choose things to keep and things to delete when cleaning etc. I wanted speed improvement on my computer. I currently have 8GB RAM and Intel i7-2600s cpu @ 2.80 GHz and this program appears to have actually slowed it down.

"Poor, almost caused my computer to crash."
Version: Magix PC Check & Tuning 2012 7.0.40123
Pros
Nothing Pro about it.
Cons
After using- the one-step tune up. My desktop went crazy flashing all over. Never saw this before, then got the dreadded blue screen crash. Shut down and restarted, luckily it came back up. Removed this program from my computer. Definitely would not recommend this to anyone.

"Bad program, looks fancy but will screw up your PC!"
Version: Magix PC Check & Tuning 2012 7.0.40123
Pros
None, nada, zip!
Cons
Just about got my PC back to about 75% after installing this product, I pray I dont have to fully restore it. Should have given the 5 bucks to John 3:16 and bought someone a meal, would have been better spent. Big headake!

Version: Magix PC Check & Tuning 2012 7.0.40123

Ran great on 1st computer I installed on
Cons
Firefox continues to crash on 2nd computer I installed it on, even after restoring to earlier time.

Whether you get results or not is iffy. The consistency of the product just isn't there.
