Smart PC 4.5

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

On a number of fronts, Smart PC makes a clever and classy choice for keeping your computer unencumbered by digital detritus. The first thing you notice when you fire the program up is its ultramodern, elegant design, which really deviates from the standard gray-box formula we see so often. Smart PC features a Registry cleaner, an uninstaller, a tool for removing invalid shortcuts, and a utility that manages what programs launch on system start. Other cleaning implements include those that get rid of junk files (like BAKs and TMPs), remove duplicate files, and cover your surfing tracks from Internet Explorer. You can schedule Smart PC to run when you like, and the Quick Schemes feature offers three levels of user-customizable automatic cleaning sessions. The demo disables some of the Registry cleaner's removal powers, but that's not a big deal considering how useful its other tools are. Anyone looking to keep their machine bloat-free will benefit from this good-looking, powerful application.

Publisher's description

From Smart PC Solutions :

Smart PC allows PC optimization to be done easily on Windows-based computers even by users with limited knowledge or experience with these systems. By fixing errors, cleaning up unnecessary files from the hard drive, and improving the speed of the Windows operating system, the program improves the performance of the computer and makes it more efficient. The software also removes personal and financial information from the computer so users no longer need to worry about becoming victims of identity theft via their computer or laptop. The software includes a scheduler so users can schedule times for optimization when the system is not in use to ensure continued high performance for the computer. Smart PC also works on a number of different Windows platforms, including NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista. Users searching for improved performance can choose from three options within Smart PC. If they want a fast solution to fix minor problems, perhaps between scheduled optimizations, the Quick option will do the trick. The Normal run will take care of most fixes and files thus resulting in an improved performance. The Full run not only takes care of these problems but also provides improved security by eliminating your personal information from the system. Smart PC lets users clean their registry, repair their registry, perform PC optimization, clean up the Windows operating system for improved overall performance.
