Comodo System Cleaner collects three free and useful cleaning utilities: Registry Cleaner, Disk Cleaner, and Privacy Cleaner. Running these utilities will rid your computer of duplicate, harmful, or otherwise unnecessary files.

The interface of this program is colorful and easy to navigate and use. Before it runs a cleaning task, it creates a backup of your system to prevent any accidental loss of data, which is a great benefit. Day-to-day computing inevitably causes stray files and other debris to build up in your system, and it's often difficult to find and delete it all. We ran each of Comodo … Read more

Its easy-to-use layout and fast results made this an exciting and helpful utility. It's free and completely portable, too: Install it on a USB flash drive and use it on any PC.

Little Registry Cleaner's interface is surprisingly simple to operate, thanks to its limited command options. The portable edition's simplified menu helps keep the focus on the program'… Read more

Tablecloths, carpets, clothing--red wine can leave stains anywhere it's spilled. The Wine Away Spray Stain Remover can clean up those stains and, since the kit is small enough to fit in a purse or a pocket, you can have it on hand whenever you need it, even if you're out to dinner.

Flash Cookie Cleaner offers to help clean up your computer and eliminate unwanted and unneeded cookies. While this may sound like a big task, this program breaks the job down into its simplest pieces for incredible ease.

The program's interface could not have been simpler, which was a delightful surprise. Scaled down to three simple command buttons, we were not upset that the program had no Help file or instructions, since we didn't need them. The program scanned our computer for cookies and behavior-tracking files. We were able to view each of these cookies and determine whether they … Read more

A clean, tabbed layout makes Registry Booster easy to use, and its Registry-centric features keep it focused and in fighting trim. The trial version comes burdened by some tight restrictions that will make it hard for average users to evaluate, but the program does a surprisingly good job of showing you precisely what would be fixed.

Annoyingly, after the program installs, if you choose to launch it immediately it will go directly into a scan without asking for user approval. Depending on your system resources and what other programs you have open, this could lead to a temporary but dramatic … Read more

Comodo System Cleaner Portable bests the crowded Registry cleaner field on several fronts: it's completely portable; its SafeDelete feature effectively prevents you from deleting the wrong files, and makes it easy to restore them if you do; it actually improves your system's performance; and it's free, unlike the many others that will scan your system but make you pay for the software to clean it. It effectively cleans files, the disk Registry, and privacy threats. It removes corrupt and unnecessary Registry entries, deletes duplicate files and needless archives, and removes digital traces from browsers and other programs. … Read more

Advanced System Optimizer 3 gives people a comprehensive suite of utilities fronted by an interface that showcases an excellent use of color-coded icons, making banal system tasks easy to complete--if not exciting. However, its restrictive trial could prevent some people from fully exploring the program.

The program attempts to be all things to all people, and includes tools that can be split into three categories: maintenance, security, and backup. Advanced System Optimizer focuses on the maintenance side of things, and includes a Registry optimizer and cleaner, a disk defragmenter, a disk repair utility that claims to fix errors before drive … Read more

Free Registry Cleaner has too many problems to be a good choice for anyone except those who prefer to clean their own registries key by key.

Visually, the interface is clean, if unexciting. The program offers a few other functions as well, but nothing that isn't already possible through the Control Panel, Task Manager, or other integrated Windows utilities. It defaults to a wizard interface that not easy to use. Initially, we thought the unpickable picklist was the worst it offered; when asked to select the areas to scan, we found that Ctrl-click did not work. Instead, we could … Read more

System Cleaner is the ultimate system maintenance tool. And even though it does come with a few trial restrictions, we were impressed with its capability to quickly scan, locate, and repair problems files on our computer.

The user interface is very clean and very easy to navigate. You have five menu options, each with its own tools for optimizing your system. We first opted to scan and clean our disk space. The program quickly went to work, scanning our system and finding problem files. We especially appreciated that the program let us view the details of the scan before fixing … Read more
