My computer is quite old. Over the past year, it has started running slower and slower and starting it up takes so long, that I often had to wait an hour or more for it to completely boot before I could start working on it. Getting a new computer is not in my budget and taking it to a computer repair business can be quite expensive as well. So, when I heard about TuneUp Utilities, I knew I had nothing to lose and much to gain my trying it out. TuneUp Utilities is software that helps computer owners clean up their computer to allow for optimal performance, operability, reliability, security and visual appearance.
Some features of the software include:
TuneUp Program Deactivator with TuneUp Programs-on-Demand Technology - Allows you to turn off software you only rarely use until you need it again to enhance the speed of your computer.
Turbo Mode - Allows you to achieve maximum speed while working and playing games by shutting down more than 70 background processes, services, and scheduled tasks.
Tuning Status - Shows how many optimization actions have already been performed and what maintenance tasks have yet to be completed.
Rating Function for Programs - A star-rating system keeps users informed of the relevance of several TuneUp programs.
Tune-Up Live Optimization - Prevents background programs from draining too much PC performance.
Uninstall - Helps find programs that are rarely and never used and allows you to remove them with a click of the mouse.
Turn off startup programs - Allows you to choose which programs are unnecessary to load at start-up, recuding the amount of time to boot your PC
TuneUp 1-Click Maintenance and Automatic Maintenance - Fixes registry problems, deletes orphaned program shortcuts, removed unnecessary files, and ensures disk defragmentation.
Free up disk space
Securely delete files
Check hard disk for errors
Fix common problems
Customize the appearance of Windows
Review: The software comes with 1 disk which needs registered and can be used on up to three computers. The program is really easy to use and it walks you through all the different feature. The software analyzed my computer and found a whopping 1574 problems that it was able to fix! There were a number of broken shortcuts, unnecessary programs, and almost 20 programs that were slowing my startup time. Since my computer was in such bad shape and needed a lot of maintenance, it took me almost 2 days (off and on obviously) to fix all the problems. The work was well worth it. Starting up my computer went from taking an hour at times to a few minutes (THANK YOU TUNEUP!!!) I ended up with more free space, a faster speed, and a lot less frustration.
