iolo System Mechanic Free is a cut-down version of iolo's popular PC optimisation suite.
If you've ever used any of the PC speedup packages around then you'll already know what to expect here. So there's a Registry cleaner, for instance; a tool for locating and deleting junk files; a basic defrag module, Windows startup program checker, and so on.
This isn't just an identikit speedup suite, though - these tools are genuinely effective. When we pointed the program at a reasonably clean system and asked it to locate redundant files, for example, it uncovered 820MB; CCleaner could only locate 236MB.
There are also plenty of tools which aren't commonly available in this kind of suite. So there are modules to defragment your memory, back up and restore your Registry; locate and delete (or fix) broken shortcuts; securely erase confidential files; locate duplicate files; thoroughly uninstall applications; view system information; and take snapshots of your PC and display the difference between them, so for instance you can see the changes made to your PC by a program installation.
System Mechanic 11.7.1 is a minor upgrade, with these new features:
Increased Problem-solving Intelligence. New Self-Healing Technology allows System Mechanic to automatically correct changes to your system that might cause it to not function.
Streamlined Data and Network Speeds.Updates and Collective Intelligence data have been streamlined to minimize resource requirements, such as network bandwidth.
Enhanced Messaging Control. System Mechanic now affords greater user control over product communications and messaging.
Fine-tuned Security Enhancements. System Mechanic now more intelligently controls protection from errant browser and system scripts.
