Ease of Use:  

Advanced System Optimizer is extremely simple. The navigation is divided into categories, so if you want to clean your system, you can go to the section devoted to system cleaning. If you are familiar with the look of Windows XP, you will love the design of Advanced System Optimizer.

Feature Set:  

Advanced System Optimizer combines an excellent registry cleaner with an outstanding utilities package. The package applications include System Cleaners, System Optimizers, System Tools, Privacy and Security, Internet and Email, Organizers, Backup and Restore, Safe Execution, Files and Folders, and a Beautify Windows Section.

The Auto-Start manager lets you have instant access to programs that start automatically when you logon to your computer. This feature will show you exactly what is running on your machine at logon and allows you the option to delete or disable troublesome startup items.

With this program, you can easily customize areas you want the registry cleaner to avoid. Another useful feature is the System Analyzer and Advisor—you’ll receive expert advice on how to optimize your computer; you may choose to either implement or ignore the advice. If you adopt the recommendations, the program automatically adjusts your computer settings using the advice specifications—you don’t have to implement changes yourself.

This utility pack also comes with a spyware detector. While there are more powerful spyware removal tools on the market, experience shows that two spyware nets are better than one.

Advanced System Optimizer also comes with a cool little posting notes application. This program allows you to create little sticky notes, but these notes don’t clutter the border of your monitor. You can quickly access notes on the bottom icon panel.

Ease of Installation:  

There were no complications during the installation of Advanced System Optimizer.

Help/Support:  

The help and documentation segment for this program is excellent. The package comes with a manual that is easily accessed through the Help button. FAQs and email support can be accessed from the SysTweak homepage and from the program.

Safety:  

Advanced System Optimizer does a great job identifying potential problems. The program makes you place a system restore point before you are permitted to delete any material—this precaution makes it simple to restore your machine to its original state if there are problems booting up again. You can also restore changes you made during previous scans.

The program breaks errors into groups identified by familiar Windows XP Icons and gives a brief description on why the file was marked as an error. Another safety feature–can double click on an error and it will take you directly to the error in the registry.

Advanced System Optimizer does not rate the severity of each error, so it’s challenging sometimes to make an informed choice about which items to fix and which items to delete.

With the most complete Maintenance/Diagnostic and Repair/Recovery sections we've seen, coupled with easy-to-use controls, Advanced System Optimizer is one of the best PC system utilities software programs around for beginners and experts alike. Advanced System Optimizer has powerful utilities tools to help you diagnose and fix several computer issues, and keep your computer running at peak performance. The utilities software is a great product, and the best solution for routine PC check-ups as well as maintaining optimal speed and efficiency.
