System Mechanic
System Mechanic from iolo technologies is an all-in-one solution for optimizing your system, that’s more suited to an experienced user, rather than a novice. Packed with features, it has more than 50 automatic tools to clean up your hard drive, repair your registry, defragment your hard drive and optimize memory, system and internet settings. One of our favourites is CRUDD (Commonly Redundant or Unnecessary Decelerators and Destabilizers) removal, which strips away any unwanted bundled software or empty files, Stability Guard, LiveBoost, and more. One of the top features for Windows 10 users is its Privacy Shield function. With the click of a mouse you can undo many of the privacy invasions and tracking tools that are pre-installed in the operating system, rather than having to hunt through your directory and turn off each feature one-by-one.
