WinUtilities Pro

If you have used the computer for a long time, you probably installed and uninstalled a lot of games and programs. This software creates a lot of left-overs when it's removed, no matter how good the unistaller is. Unwanted files and registry keys can accumulate over time and may cause the system to work at a lower speed and may even cause errors. Not to mention the valuable hard disk space that is being taken up without reason. Fortunately, there is a solution to this, the software WinUtilities Pro. As the name clearly states, this is a set of tools designed to clean and fix certain areas of the operating system, for improving the computer speed, stability and also for freeing up hard disk space.

The program installs in a flash and doesn't need special system requirements, thus it can run on older computer systems without any problems. Also, it supports any version of Microsoft Windows and doesn't install any toolbars or adware.

The interface is well organized in tabs, each one of them addressing a certain area of the operating system. The name of every tab and the name of every tool are intuitive and self-explanatory and even an inexperienced user can manage in using them. The software can remove unwanted hard disk files, broken registry keys, it can delete shortcuts without any references and also do several more advanced things, like defragmenting the registry and the hard disk or removing web browser add-ons. Although Windows includes an utility for defragmenting the hard disk, it lacks a lot of features and the tool included in WinUtilities manages to fill those gaps.

Besides taking care of the cleaning and fixing the aspect of the operating system, WinUtilities also includes a set of features for dealing with privacy problems, as it can delete the cache and history from any web browser and can also protect documents with a password.

Beginners will appreciate the 1-Click Maintenance feature which takes care of all the Windows common aspects automatically with the click of a button. Also, tasks can be scheduled to start at a specified hour, for example at night, when nobody uses the computer.

Users who are familiar with the standard Windows utilities for cleaning and maintenance can access them directly through WinUtilities, thus they will not have to look for them in the start menu.
