0 Phantom Helix Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 They don't make Norton utilities anymore do they? and if you ask me Iolo System Mechanic Professional is the best of that type of program, TU has "Other" features like custom VS enabling but you can get that online for free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 +Frank B. Subscriber² Posted January 1, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted January 1, 2010 Is there really a need for either application? Windows 7 works just fine without any tuning tools on my system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Phantom Helix Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 System mechanic also has firewall and av to it has other useful stuff that is not related to registry, altho the registry defragment by itself made my Win 7 boot up faster, Learned my lesson long ago that reg cleaners are more hassle than they are worth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 JunkMail Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Registry Winner does that all! These days a person has to look to the SIZE of app before getting it installed. Norton still makes Utilities but they're heavily bloated plus they very tightly integrate to your shell (and not to forget their uninstaller zucks).

0 Pallab Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 TU - I use it because I trust it. I have been using it for 6 years or something like that. It has managed to fix annoying system issues and even corrupted (unbootable) system! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
