Editor's review of PC Optimizer

• 4.0 stars

• "PC Optimizer"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: PC Optimizer 1.02

Though you may not need all this full-performance enhancer has to offer, you'll find it capable of almost anything. PC Optimizer lays out each of its performance pieces in guided categories, such as System Tools, File Tools, and Security Tools. Its system-tools area details used and free space and blocks unwanted start-up programs from running. You can also scan and dump unwanted junk files, temp files, and duplicates from any drive or folder, although scanning is a bit slow. Secured deletion also works well but slowly, and you can choose from one of five deletion methods or define your own number of wipes. The program gives a complete list of deleted items and can wipe the disk space clean as well. PC Optimizer has standard Registry tools, such as for backing up, cleaning, restoring, and system defragmenting. As if that's not enough, you'll also be able to clean up some Windows and online tracks from surfing with Internet Explorer, Opera, and Netscape. Though users of all levels may find themselves drawn to one or two areas, we recommend you let PC Optimizer scan your system using all its muscle. You'll like what it can do.

  "This one is good!!"

  by pen2005pal on September 17, 2005

  Pros: In the past I have never had good experiences with these kinds of products, because I would spend so much time downloading on dial-up only to find out that they don't fix them until you buy the product. Not this one. This one actually gives you the full version without having to purchase. It cleaned out my junk files and did everything else that the review states! I live in the mountains where there is no cable, and this is the only product that has made my system not only work better, but faster. I normally don't spend $39 on this kind of software but I can tell you that when my trial ends-I'm buying it!!

  Cons: no cons.

  "Taken from Advanced System Optimizer"

  Summary: I can tell that much of this programs content was taken directly from an older version of Advanced System Optimizer, especially the interface and basically just the way the program operates. If you already have Advanced System Optimizer (whether its... read more >>
