WindowsTuneup

Honestly, I put these links here for my own convenience If you would like to use these utilities, you should have good backups of your computer before proceeding, and you should have some idea of what you are doing or seek help from a qualified IT professional. I have not had any problems with this software, but you are solely responsible for whatever happens to your computer should you choose to use it. I am in no way affiliated with the publisher of the software. I make no warranty as to the fitness of this software for any purpose.

  • the fastest, free disk defrag utility that I have found so far

• CCleaner (formerly known as Crap Cleaner )
  • this is probably the most “dangerous” as it deletes files and registry keys
  • please read through options carefully and make sure to un-check items you don’t want deleted
