Every Windows user out there knows that after a while the computer that used to be speedy starts to work sluggishly. There are various causes for the slowdown, a very common one being problems with the Windows Registry. Errors in the Registry negatively impact the system’s performance and stability. The PC Tune-Up tool is here to revitalize your PC by uncovering and fixing Registry problems and by defragmenting the Registry.

The PC Tune-Up installation file is of only 4.2Mb, so it won’t take long for the download to complete. You can easily install the application on a PC powered by Win2000, XP, Vista, or Windows 7. When you run the aforementioned installation file, a setup wizard will show up and take you through the installation process. You will get to choose between several supported languages, pick the installation directory, and choose if you want a PC Tune-Up desktop shortcut.

The PC Tune-Up's interface presents four main functions and the four main steps you must take to revitalize your PC. The first step is to back up the system and Registry, just in case something wrong happens; the backup will let you restore things if anything bad happens. Step two is to scan the Registry for problems; you can choose between a Quick Scan and a Smart Scan. Step three is to repair all the Registry problems brought to light by the scan. Step 4 is to defragment the Registry for enhanced performance.

There is “Skip to the expert mode” link on the application’s interface. You don’t actually have to click it; when you click any of the steps, you will be directed to the expert mode interface. On top of the backup, scan, repair, and defragment functions, the expert mode interface features an Optimize button (free up memory reserved by programs, see which applications run at startup), a Protect button (protect your machine from malicious ActiveX), and a Magic Button. The Magic Button goes through all four steps for you: back up the Registry, scan for problems, repair uncovered problems, and defragment the Registry.

A licensed version of PC Tune-Up will fix all the Registry problems the application uncovers. The trial version will only fix a small portion.

With PC Tune-Up by your side, in just four easy steps, you can give your computer a performance boost. This tool will back up the registry, uncover and repair Registry problems, and it will defragment the Registry.

Pros

PC Tune-Up provides support for multiple languages. The interface is good looking and easy to use. Use PC Tune-Up to back up the Registry, scan for and fix Registry problems, defragment the Registry, view which applications run at startup, free memory, protect against malicious ActiveX.

Cons

Limited functionality in the trial version of PC Tune-Up.
