Advanced SystemCare 4.0

Advanced SystemCare Free is a system maintenance tool. It is the free version of the more complete Advanced System Care PRO. The free version allows you to keep your system in top form by scanning it to find malware and other threats and problems with your registry that might make your computer function slow. The application can also find duplicate or unneeded files that might be taking precious hard drive space on your system and it can even detect web browser history files that might result in privacy concerns.

There are four different modes that you can access from the application's main window: Quick Care, Deep Care, Turbo Boost and Toolbox. The care features scan your computer to find threats, performance hogs and vulnerabilities. The main difference is that the quick scan is faster and it looks for less types of threats than the Deep Care scan. Both scans seem to work well and they both found problems in my system and seemed to solve them quite well. The app creates a rollback point whenever it attempts to fix an error, so you can probably go back if something goes wrong. The TurboBoost feature shuts down unnecessary background processes and services and optimized RAM usage to speed up your computer. Lastly, ToolBox is a compilation of system maintenance tools that includes a registry cleaner, a privacy sweeper, disk cleaner, among others.

All in all, this app seems to do a great job of finding and neutralizing threats and fixing errors. It has a very responsive graphical user interface which has a great design.
