Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This powerful free tweaking application consolidates various hardware, network, and Registry customization settings to help you improve your computer's performance. iTweak's simple interface logically divides tweakable items into five major categories. Thankfully, iTweak backs up your Registry immediately upon installation. You may need that backup if a tweak screws up your PC. Using this program is simple. Merely tick check boxes to easily change Windows' appearance and menus, modify the settings of IE, Windows Media Player, and Microsoft Office, and restrict the use of certain applications and Windows programs. However, though changes are simple to implement, disabling some video and graphics settings could quickly render your PC impossible to view. Changes are always immediately applied, though some tweaks need a system restart to take effect. Advanced and savvy users bold enough to experiment with the inner workings of their OSes would appreciate this free program.Publisher's description

Version: iTweak 1.4.37
Pros: ability to tweak some of the hidden/advanced setting in your system. able to speed up, optimize, fix basic problems, configure programs, enhance user ability and security of the computer. this free app also come with the auto back-up/restore feature which can undo changes you made using the software in case it triggered an error or crash.
Cons: warning!critical error with some pc. can't uninstall properly. also it's hard to use if u tweak with it too much. one wrong click and it could just destroy your computer. needs more improvement and bug fix. only use if you're an advanced PC user and bold enough(read the instruction carefully. back-up files and recover your system if it screw up)

Version: iTweak 1.4.37
Pros: This software is really powerful that it really speed up my windows. It also has the security functional that can fully lock the application that you don't want it to run by other user such as your kid and etc. But beware when you using this software and make sure you know what are you doing. Because I was also screw my system but luckily I am able to restore my system back with the iTweak backup system. So, it is very safe to use it because it backup your windows settings verytime you do the changes with it and you can restore your system back anytime you want to.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ADVANCE AND POWER USER.
Cons: the control in it sometimes quite confusing and it is not recommended for kids and also computer illiterate to use this software.
