You can optimize, clean, repair, protect and maintain your OS with System Mechanic Professional 7.5. System Mechanic is a tool for anyone who wants a stable and error free PC. It will find and fix the problems in your computer, keep systems running at high performance, and properly maintain Windows to prevent problems from reoccurring.

If you are a newbie, you might not find all the features from the beginning. Even though it has not a Windows oriented interface like Tune Up Utilities, after a few tries you can use it easily. I was surprised by how many functions are included in this software. There are not so many applications that include registry and memory optimization tools, spyware protection, antivirus, firewall, internet accelerator, pop-up blocker and some other useful tools. After you just start the application it is important to make a quick scan of the system. In few minutes the application will show the status of your PC. Depending on this status you can choose the appropriate function to run.

All tasks can be automated and reports can be created in order to keep track of the system changes. The thing I like the most is the feature called 'PC TotalCare'. This is a single click optimization tool. Using it is a pleasure because it will fix problems and optimize your system, all in one sitting.

Pluses: The price is low for such an application; a lot of functions which normally are not included in such applications; the results can be seen very soon, after you have used it

Drawbacks / flaws: You cannot install the firewall and antivirus features in case you have already installed a different antivir or firewall.

In conclusion: Besides TuneUp Utilities and Ashampoo WinOptimizer, System Mechanic is one of the good applications in this area of softwares
