- "Glary offers a helping hand"
This powerful application offers extensive utilities to improve your system's performance and protect your privacy. Glary Utilities' well-organized interface allows users to easily choose from several tools. It cleans unwanted junk files and removes invalid and broken shortcuts, freeing up valuable disk space.
Its Registry cleaner allows you to scan, remove, and back up faulty Registry entries. You also can wipe out online and Windows traces, although Internet Explorer is the only browser in which this function is supported. To improve the speed of your computer, Glary Utilities offers tools to manage start-up programs and memory optimization. Privacy-conscious users will certainly appreciate its inclusion of a government-standard file shredder to securely delete data.
Overall, users who are looking for an effective and easy-to-use application to keep their system in tip-top shape should try this one out.

Version: Glary Utilities 2.6
Pros: Suite of useful tools
Cons: The "one click" is good for daily cleanups, but there is a host of other useful utilities included that can be very useful. Norton, your days are over!

Version: Glary Utilities 2.6
Pros: what can i say? it can do a little of this and that. it can clean up your pc, though not as thoroughly as ccleaner, it can check for false shortcuts and startup programs, it can clean out the registry and do a good job at it,it can clean up temporary files, spyware tracks and traces and even scan for spyware though i doubt it is a very in depth scanner but i could be wrong.all in all, there is no reason NOT to have this program, run it with ccleaner and your pc will thank you.
Cons: none that i know of so far, but as i said i would use it with ccleaner rather than instead of.

Version: Glary Utilities 2.6
Pros: I use this software from older versions and It hasnīt disappointed me. It is not the only one but it is one of the best freeware in its kind. However, I do this, if the reasons to update my previous version are not applicable for my case, I am not in a hurry to update it. I just see the numbers of my version and the new one and I decide. In other words, if my current version resolves my needs, I trust it. I wait for a new version with important changes !
