Editor's review of Advanced WindowsCare Personal 2.8.1
4.0 stars
- "Give your OS some personal care"
This isn't the most feature-packed Windows-optimization utility, nor the most effective, but we found it one of the easiest to control. Advanced WindowsCare's simple interface offers two main options: Repair and Repair And Optimize. The former fixes Registry entries and cleans out your operating system. The latter does the same thing and tweaks Windows for maximum performance.
If you run into trouble, the Restoration option can return your system to its original configuration. The Advanced menu provides fine control over repairs and optimizations. On the downside, we noticed only one improvement on our test PC: a reduced amount of used RAM. Also, the program's brief descriptions of system problems may not satisfy seasoned users. And although the latest version of the app includes a help file, we wouldn't call it extensive.
Nevertheless, if your system is running sluggishly and you're considering reinstalling Windows, it wouldn't hurt to try this freeware package first.

Version: Advanced WindowsCare Personal 2.8.1
"One of the few apps that actually sped up my pc."
Pros: For a free registry cleaner, Advanced WindowsCare Personal made my Vista os run faster and smoother after just one scan and repair/optimize. It has many features, but does it all with just one click. Very safe and easy to use. I have seen paid utilities that aren't as effective as this one. Give it a try, it's free.

"One of the best free diagnostic tools."

Version: Advanced WindowsCare Personal 2.8.1
Pros: Been using it for a while and it does most of my work for me. It's actually too good and must be affecting sales of the paid for Pro version:)
Keeps you running smooth along with my McAfee and IOBIT Smart defrag.
