The average tune-up utility improves your PC'southward overall system performance by repairing the problematic Windows registry, defragging the hard drive, and deleting junk files. However, SlimWare Utilities SlimCleaner Plus goes the extra mile past including community-based recommendations, the power to recognize out-of-date antivirus software, and new Instant Alerts that let you know when suspicious software tries to latch onto your PC's startup process. Overall, SlimCleaner Plus is easy to use and has effective computer clean-upward chops, simply its license limitations prevent it from toppling the reigning paid tune-up king, Iolo System Mechanic xv.v.

System Requirements and Setup

Compatible with Windows 10/8/vii/Vista/XP PCs, SlimCleaner Plus requires an Net connectedness for downloading the software and any updates that may be required during installation. Unlike Iolo System Mechanic 15.5, our Editors' Choice for paid tune-upwards utilities, SlimCleaner Plus limits the number of installation licenses yous receive for your coin. You go i PC license for $29.97, three for $34.95, five for $56.95, x for $100.95, and 25 for $230. Iolo, on the other mitt, lets you install its Organization Mechanic 15.5 software on every bit many PCs equally you'd like—that'southward a sweet, potentially money-saving deal in the historic period of the multi-PC habitation. I wish SlimCleaner Plus, and other tune-up utilities, would adopt this model.

SlimCleaner Plus vs. SlimCleaner Gratuitous

If you're wondering well-nigh the differences between SlimCleaner Plus and SlimCleaner Gratis, hither'south the skinny: SlimCleaner Plus has a one-click scan and fix button, laptop ability-consumption settings, the ability to conciliate unneeded features for greater calculating efficiency, and Windows 10-specific protection that lets yous customize the operating system'southward privacy settings to disable, or limit, features that collect and report data to Microsoft.

SlimCleaner Costless lacks those features, besides as SlimCleaner Plus' ability to place inactive or out-of-engagement antivirus software, and the new Instant Alerts, which leverages community recommendations to notify you that unwanted software (such as a toolbar that came packaged with an awarding) tries to insert itself into the bootup process. In my tests, Instant Alerts triggered a pop-up window when it detected a browser toolbar (a toolbar that I didn't intentionally install, by the style). Instant Alerts gave me the option to either continue the toolbar or uninstall it, so I removed it. It's an incredibly useful feature.
