I have been using SmartBuster for a very long time and it has helped me a lot. It has a lot of useful tools and the best thing is it is free. You don’t even have to install it. Just double-click the 486 KB program to start it.
Of the many tools it has, my favorites are Junk Buster, Ram Cleaner and Windows Buster. I use Windows Buster when I am in a hurry to shutdown Windows. It shuts down Windows under 2 seconds!
Over the past years I have tried several registry cleaners but nothing compares to the Regisry Cleaner by TuneUp. The program is both user friendly and powerful at the same time.
You can use it to quickly and thoroughly remove the unneeded entries left over when you install and remove programs and when you work with your computer every day.
Diskeeper is one of the best defragmenter tools I have seen for Windows. After installation it will replace Windows default defragmenter tool.
Diskeeper offers many features that Windows Defragmenter does not have, such as simultaneous defragmentation operations.
After analyzing your drives Diskeeper will report its health and status in the ‘Job Report’ tab.
The first time I analyzed my C drive, Diskeeper reported its health as ‘Critical’ because of the following reasons:
It suggested that I use ‘Frag Shield’ to resize the MFT size to the recommended size.
After resizing the MFT, Diskeeper reported the health status of my C drive as ‘Healthy’!
Diskeeper also supports Boot-Time defragmentation which is useful when you want to defragment the paging file and MFT.
Another useful feature is ‘Set it and Forget it’ which will automatically keep fragmentation on your drives at a low level.
I now use Diskeeper regularly so that my computer stays as healthy as possible.
